Never here that term used but I'm out west as well. We're all semi's, all the time.
"two-four" is there and can confirm that is more an eastern term as well. Never heard the term until I spent a year out in Ontario many years ago. Still hasn't really made its way to the west in all that time.
two-four has been established MB parlance for at least 50 years. But then MB isn't really Western Canada. Its central.
"Two-four" hasn't made its way out west because we call it a case of beer, and we already have "two-six", which is a 26oz bottle of liquor.
In Ontario "two-six" is called a twixer
It's a 750.
"Twixer" must be relatively new, or more specific regionalism. I've only known them to be called "twenty-sixers"
