their attitudes change immediatley when they find out you're canadian vs american.
i realize that most of that stems from ww1/2 etc etc...however, things like this certainly don't help.

i agree not all americans are tools, but the fact that they (and i use that loosely since it was a select few who did it, and not "all" americans) would even think for a second that this would be remotley hilarious definitely warrants several punches to the head(s).
so, i sort of have to half a$$ed agree with previous comment about americans wondering why everyone hates them.

as for equally dim canadians....i can think of a few PM's...just for starters...and can *sometimes* understand how americans could come to think canadians are dim.
luckily not all canadians are that dim either.

I think much of it stems from the self-absorbed superiority complex many of my countrymen seem to have. Where it comes from, I have no idea.
