Do it long enough and it will be second nature. Once it’s second nature it will be your “real” accent. :)

We have a very big country. And right now it is more economically feasible to live in Alberta. I would like to be from the maritimes so I could have a good accent.

You grabbed PEI, too! After the British grabbed it, that is. Before that, some others probably grabbed it a few times…

It wouldn’t be any different than say when Prince Edward Island, also a British colony, was made part of Canada.
