Why do Canadians say EH?

One for the Canadians - a dictionary definition*

EH? (ay), n. [Colloq.] Canadian term for right, okay?. Please, maybe, thank you, how about it?, don't you?. Used after a statement or question. Said with spirit & pride even to Americans and other visitors. It's better than saying HUH!

* - May not actually be found in any existing published dictionary

Eh? What did you say?

So, what's up for the weekend - eh?

Eh? Come again...

And so, marks another Friday, and I am going to have a glass of wine because nothing else is up. Eh??? NO no no - I'm not a lush yet.
