Definder - what does the word mean?

What is eh?

Coming from a Canadian (where the word was made, no duh),
Eh means anything, really, but usually means YES? or RIGHT? It can also mean RIGHT ON or TOTALLY.
You can only use EH at the end of a sentence, though, and make sure you don't make it a part of a sentence (did that make ANY sense?).

1) Hockey game was amazing, eh?
2) Oh I know, eh!
