Read backs

Hi,
I'm a British controller, training in Edmonton and I'm kinda curious about the occasional 'Canadianism' that I'm coming accross.

What are pilots required to readback, seems to change depending on who you ask?

When I issue a clearance our Manops requires me to 'verify' the readback, of course I've always done this but in Canada I'm expected to tell you I've verified it?

As vfr pilots are you happy with being issued vectors at altitudes beneath my minimum vectoring altitudes for ifr aircraft?

I'm sure I'll be coming up with more questions as I go along and I'll be a Canuck in no time

Thanks
FT
