I've decided that if I'm ever overseas and someone asks me if I'm Canadian, I'm going to say yes.

I should do that too. Won't get dirty looks like when you say you're American. :uh:

Hey
get over it. If your American it's the same as being Canadian. I mean it. George Bush is the one who made the bad name for you guys. Don't even get me started.

Overall I think Americans are just as equal as us Canadians. But with a catch, The American Dollar is higher than the Canadian Dollar. But one day the Canadian Dollar will surpass the American Dollar. Therefore making the Canadian Dollare the "Dollar" 8-)

actually as close as america and canada are, there's a surprising difference in our cultures and stuff, for a small example i realised that canadians actually do say "eh" a lot and theres a lot more stuff, like canada is known for peace keeping, while america is known for its large and powerful army, that and the fact that canada doesn't really have much of an army to speak of, but one day we will, and also health care is very different here, plus many more things that i'm just to lazy to type out right now, but theres a pretty big difference between canadians and americans actually

In Michigan there are quite a few people who say "eh". Then again, there are parts of the state that could join Ontario and no one would really notice.

I think the major difference between Canadians and Americans is that Americans are more generally more conservative. We still cling to bits of Puritanism. People like to go out and have a good time on Saturday night, but they feel guilty and show up at church the next morning. It's no wonder the largest number of bars and churches per capita in the US is in the same place.
