Hi Carol! Thank you for your comment. We agree entirely, and plan to add more detail on Canadian and Australian English to the course in the near future.

I’d like to leave a comment about Module 4.2 of the Becoming a Proofreader course – Regional Spelling Variations. Canadian spellings were not covered in this module. Canadians do NOT use American or UK spellings exclusively but “bounce” back and forth depending on tradition and usage. For example, Canadians use “cheque” the UK spelling, but “program”, “aluminum” and either “jewelry” or “jewellery” depending on who owns the advertising copy that is being written. Do you have any plans to address Canadian spellings in the Becoming a Proofreader course?
