It's not Canadian, it's ~~Newfie~~.

Edit: It's actually from ~~New Brunswick~~ Nova Scotia. Learn your geography, kids.

Thanks for pointing it out /u/cryptowillem

Edit 2: I need sleep. Holy....

I can't agree with you there. The Donair was introduced in the 70s in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Not Newfoundland. It even says that in the article.

I completely got my provinces mixed up.

Oh man. This is so embarrassing.
