Yet the reality is, we typically know what we're watching isn't "TEHH BEST!!", but is still quality product.
You know the guys, every time something is Canadian, they have to point out that it's stupid that people like it, and they only like it because it's Canadian.
Oh, you're stupid, you go to Tim Horton's because it canadiana!
Oh, I hate when Canadians watch anything on CBC, it's nationalistic, you need to watch only the best in the world of everything or else you're a stupid Canadian who doesn't know any better.
CFL is for stupid Canadians who only watch it because it's Canadian.
You listen to Canadian music? Are you ######ed, there's so much better music right at your fingertips.
I notice this attitude a lot in this country, both subtly and obnoxiously.

Canadian hipsters, I reckon? The kind of people that don't like anything that is popular?
They're right about Tim Horton's, but for the wrong reason.
