Please disregard this patch. I missed a couple of words and with those corrected en_CA.po becomes identical to en.po (except that "serialisation" is fuzzy) and Wine defaults to that anyway for Canadian English.

Will re-submit if there are any changes (just noticed -able/-eable).

Will keep an eye on the English translations.

Turns out all the -ise/-ize words used in Wine are of Latin origin anyway.

Canadian English follows some British/French rules but not others.

I have left some of the -ise/-ize words fuzzy because:

"the etymological convention that verbs derived from Greek roots are
spelled with -ize and those from Latin with -ise is preserved in that
practice."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_english#Spelling_and_dictionaries

I tried looking for the origins of the words and I couldn't get any. The
non-fuzzies are correct.

With British, US and Canadian I believe all the English variations (used
in Wine) are covered, except Philippines (follows US rules).
