Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #1021
Hello, happy Saturday, Teri here, and I’ve got a couple commands as we normally do on Saturdays but first off a little bit of trivia for you.
Did you know what is significance of December 5 when it comes to Alexa?
This is the day three years ago that Alexa first started shipping in Canada, the very first Echo devices were shipped in Canada.
So it’s three years now that Alexa has been in Canada, now, she is six years old when you look at how long she’s been in the States but three as of today.
Now let’s get to a couple of fun things that you can say, if you are into finding out your horoscope, well, you can certainly ask Alexa about that.

You can just simply say, “Hey Alexa, what is the horoscope for Capricorn?” for example, for today or for tomorrow, and she will let you know that.
And the other one that I think is really fun for the holiday season is this command, “Alexa, open my gift”.
And when you do that, she will actually give you a little surprise and I tried it today but apparently this is supposed to be different each day in the holiday season.
So I haven’t yet tried it on another day but you can try it out, see what you think.
And if you get different surprises, let me know, hit me up on Twitter, DrTeriFisher.
Alright, have some fun with that, have a great Saturday, and I’ll talk to you tomorrow.
