And Canadians wonder why we in the U.S. don't seem to know/care what they're up to in the Great White North. Maybe it's because we get more people showing up at a single Wal Mart store for a big sale than they can get for "the largest protest rally in Canadian history"!
I have Canadian relatives, and they cannot help but spout off about how awful the U.S. is every chance they get. Put a sock in it Canada. Just keep sending us lumber, oil, and comedians, and we'll keep watching your back and fueling your economy like we've been doing for 200 years...

I have Canadian relatives too, but I haven't seen them in forty years. The wife and I just got back from a trip that included four days around Calgary. It's funny, if Canadians dislike the U.S. so much, why does so much of Canada resemble the U.S?
Actually, I doubt most Canadians hate the U.S. as is proclaimed by some people. We had a very nice chat with a Canadian guy near an Alberta provincial monument (Smashed In Buffalo Head or something like that). After noticing our Wisconsin license plates, the guy walked over and talked our ears off about himself and his family. I would think he was probably the average Canadian. At least the average Albertan.
