Better than being blamed for all the worlds woes I suppose.

“I think Canada likes being anonymous sometimes”

Part of that came deliberately from the Chretien-lead liberal government.

For example, Canadian snipers fighting alongside US personnel were blocked from receiving Bronze Stars due to a Canadian government veto...

You are absolutely correct. Some fun Canadian facts, please keep them quiet:

Ontario manufactures more motor vehicles than Michigan.

RCAF fighters have recently (this century) taken over air defense duties in Alaska when USAF aircraft were grounded because of maintenance issues.

Canada has petroleum reserves equal to Saudi Arabia.

Canada, not China, is America's largest trading partner.

Canada is the second largest country in the world.

Canada has absorbed three waves of political refugees from the USA since the 1770's. No political refugees have fled south from Canada to the USA.

Canada and the US have enjoyed peaceful relations for almost 200 years, an unofficial world record?
