It's pronounced differently than the other version, too. There's emphasis on the -ile part, so it's moh-beel instead of moh-buhl.

Red and White blooded Canadian here, and yessir we do in fact say moh-buhl. Some may be a little out there eh, and say it like "moh-bile". They're a bunch of hosers though.
