All of the Canadian youtubers that I watch pronounce the letter z as “zi”, as is done in the United States. However, I have read online that it is more common for Canadians to pronounce it as “zed”, as is done in the United Kingdom. Is this a regional thing? How do you pronounce the letter z?

    At the risk of being unpopular, I say zee. I’ve been corrected so many times by my friends, but I spent a lot of time in the US and it just stuck. Plus, the alphabet song specifically says zee, and I’m not arguing with that.
