While I found your comment somewhat spot on and amusing, watching it from the outside, to me it seems that there is a difference. For Canadians, not knowing something ("ignorance") seems to carry more negative meaning than for their southern neighbours.
For example, calling somewhat ignorant is one of the most common personal attacks on this forum.
As far as cultural biases go, that's not bad.
