Your, unlike you're use of the English language is functionally challenged. I understand that it's a Canadian thing, but sadly, the word 'irregardless' does not exist in proper English. The Japanese have a wonderful saying. 'Those who admit to their stupidity show it only once. Those who try to hide it, let us know time and time again'!
Nice attempted use of the English language there.
Funny that Merriam-Webster's online dictionary recognizes it though.

Usage Discussion of IRREGARDLESS
Irregardless originated in dialectal American speech in the early 20th century. Its fairly widespread use in speech called it to the attention of usage commentators as early as 1927. The most frequently repeated remark about it is that “there is no such word.” There is such a word, however. It is still used primarily in speech, although it can be found from time to time in edited prose. Its reputation has not risen over the years, and it is still a long way from general acceptance. Use regardless instead.
