I've traveled though the states 4 times now, and each time I've experienced a situation standing in a store line up, having the same conversation I would have had in any Canadian store and I know the guy or girl had no idea I wasn't from the US. In my experience Canadian's and Americans are basically identical.
US customs officers are WAY easier to deal with then Canadian officers. Going into the us, if you don't have any drugs or bombs you're good to go. Coming into Canada it's "what did you buy and where are my tax dollars? Is that a watch you're smuggling in your arse?... Where's your receipt!"
As for being "COLD"... apparently 1/4 of Americans live further north then 1/2 the Canadian population, given the concentration of Canadians in Southern Ontario. Basically if you live in a town north of Detroit, chances are some Canadian thinks you live in an igloo....
