When someone is sarcastic it means that they are using a kind of humour called sarcasm. Sarcasm is when when you say the opposite of an intended meaning in order to jokingly mock (make fun of) a person, situation or a thing. I often use sarcasm, so I will give you an example: Yesterday it was raining, and I said to my class ''What a beautiful day it is outside!'' It was obviously NOT a nice day, so I was joking by saying the opposite.
Canadians often joke around using sarcasm, so I hope this helps you understand a bit better the next time you hear it.
