Over here, you can call them a Yankee Wanky. 
Side note of no importance: The Clockmaker; or The Sayings and Doings of #SamSlick of Slickville, by Thomas Chandler Haliburton, originally appeared as newspaper sketches. Sam Slick's colloquial, vernacular Yankee voice, peddling clocks as well as his views on "human natur," first beguiled Haligonians in 1835 in Joseph Howe's newspaper, The Novascotian.
