I need to set the record straight. It seems that I have been mischaracterized as someone who hates Canadians. This is totally not true – I did marry one after all…! 🙂

I think generally speaking Canadians are more warm, friendly and socially active than the average folk.

However, I also find them irritatingly smug and self-righteous (especially about how un-smug and un-self-righteous they think they are). This is by no means meant to imply that Americans aren’t, however nobody ever calls Canadians on this whereas bashing Americans for their arrogance and hypocrisy is practically a national sport in most countries.
