Mean While in Canada

I was wondering if I could get some help or advice.  To Canadians, is the term "Hoser" a term of profanity, derogation, camaraderie, or affection or all of these?  To put these a sentences:

 

Or does "eh" mean, "I am such a cool person for making such a keen observation"?

Well, OK, just having a little fun.  I do have a high regard for Canadians and I am Thankful they are such good neighbors and allies.

          

hos·er

hōzər/

noun

And in case you need an even bigger back story - Tim Horton played defense for the Toronto Maple Leafs, N.Y. Rangers, Buffalo Sabres and Pittsburgh Penguins during his NHL career between 1941 and 1974.  He opened the first Tim Horton Donuts in Hamilton, Ontario in 1964. Tim Horton died in a car crash in 1974.

Though not all Tim Hortons are drive-thru ... this guy wasn't sure

Sorry - that was supposed to be 1949 ... eh?

1949 - 1974

Oh ya for sure PP, no one gets to visit and escape the cold up there unless they bring me a bucket of Tims, and they are family  Anyone from Canada coming down, a bucket of Tims will be very much appreciated

Hey bro, would you like a bucket of the brewed Tim's or a bucket of the bags of ground Tim's?  Hey, if the IQD RVs reasonably high, I'll send you a whole truckload of Tim's which ever way you prefer!  I'll even drive the truck and come visit!

Yep.  Really missed the week long pics and education!

P.S.  As a courtesy observation, you may want to pronounce out loud the two letter abbreviation of your screen name you sign with sometimes.  I know it is intended as PokerPlayer but I suspect it has a completely unintended connotation that doesn't seem to fit with your highly esteemed stature!  I did try a couple time to send you a DV instant message about this but, for some reason, it says you can not receive messages.  I am just trying to not be a hoser.  eh?
