Well, two points here - one, you should probably be using vim in UTF-8
mode unless you have a really good reason not to, and b) in vim 7.1
this would fail unless ~/.vim/spell/ already existed, so an mkdir
might help.

If I set spelllang to "en_us", "colour" is highlighted with
SpellLocal. If I set it to "en_ca", "color" is highlighted with
SpellLocal. If I set it to "en_us,en_ca", neither "color" nor
"colour" is highlighted as SpellLocal.
