The following Wikipedians are Canadians and admit it, and that's darned respectable:

And please! No complaining about how we're not Americans, how Americans know nothing of our country and its culture, and whatever you do, don't trade dumb American tourist stories!

Let's face it folks. We watch American TV and movies, eat American fast food, all of our hockey teams are moving to the States, and we have no military worth mentioning. It's only a matter of time before we're the 51st state...

Pish-tosh about the 51st state. Though I should point out that we've no hard feelings about that whole Revolution thing and the 13 colonies are free to come back any time they like (with a few changes, of course) -- Paul Drye

The Canadian is the one speaking in broken, halting Korean, using chopsticks like an expert while he eats his kimchi, and bowing to elderly Koreans.

I think you Americans have a very good system: you export all your obnoxious citizens. :) --Stephen Gilbert
