a slang term in Atlantic Canada, for the Atlantic Ocean.
British person in Canada: How are you doing here in the Colonies, ladies and gentlemen? i came from across the Pond.

Canadian, upon hearing this: wow! Do you really hail from across the salt chunk? I'd like to go visit the colonial metropolis some day. Never been to Great Britain.
