Again, its always hit and miss. When I was in Queenston, ON several years ago I visit the Brock monument and I spoke with a couple from Texas who believed that the monument was erected in honour of the American General who conquered Canada in 1812.

This summer I spent a week in Sandpoint Idaho, my friend's dad went to get his hair cut and the Barber didnt even know what Canada was. She was born and raised in Sandpoint Idaho about 60-100Km south of Cranbrook BC and down the street from her work is a big sign that says CANADA. She had no clue.

Then again, I run into people around Calgary all the time who are from all over the States and they are the Polar Opposite, they are very knowledgeable, mostly because they travel for work.
