I don't see why you would want to care but (No Offense) some of the stuff that happens in America, makes Canada look like... something... very good I guess, I can't really talk 'cos Australia (SA especially) has a really bad habit of having the craziest and kookiest politicians.
This definitely describes it.
Thank god he stepped down.

I don't know I don't pay attention to it to be honest. We make fun of ourselves just as much as any other country does to us and why? I think its because of two things. One we've gotten used to being made fun of, most of us don't care anymore. Two. We make it so we come off as nice so that anyone who does hate us comes off as extremist.
As a Canadian I won't claim that our country is flawless, that's why I enjoy the Rich Mercer Report, because it makes me laugh to see things that are dumb here being mocked. I also enjoy being able to be a Conservative voter and yet still remain in the centre of the political spectrum. As a nation, we're just as flawed as any, so I don't mind being made fun of, as long as I can dish out on other countries flaws as well. I don't hate for the sake of hate, I mock for the sake of awareness and let me tell you, its just as fun. Just to fan the flames I might get for being a Conservative, let me add one more thing. I like Nickelback's music.

Most people don't hate Canada, jokes are made at their expense, sure. Just like I, as a resident of the state of Wisconsin, make fun of people with southern accents and Boston accents. Not because I hate them (with the exception of certain Texans), just for fun. No harm meant, we love Canada. Or America's hat, as some call it.
It's "about", thank you very much (I'm Canadian and can't think of any people who say "aboot").Akira Fumi said:
I'm pretty sure there aren't many people who truly hate Canada. I mean, everyone mocks everyone else, right?
Its just another country for people (america) to make fun of. "anything for a laugh" is what goes through their minds. Emphasis on "anything"!
They almost never actually mean what they say. They're mostly... just kids. I tend to avoid people like that when I'm online.

I don't make fun of Canada. I love that country. It's my back up plan when the draft hits... Joking of course. [sub]>.> <.<[/sub]
I think it is because of the french part(s) of Canada. Over the past year though, two things have had me gain more respect for the french...Daxter343 said:
Don't export mass amounts of anything... except we are the USA's number one supplier of oil, a massive exporter of timber, and fresh water.ghostinthenight said:
As for not inventing anything... we invented the Java programming language, basketball, freaking Elijah McCoy was born in Canada, even Alexander Graham Bell was Canadian (although an immigrant).
Good try though, but still a slightly fail post.
Yes, we do. Just like we knew what Sara Palin was talking about when she said Africa was a country. (For those not in the know: It's a continent)Simalacrum said:Ok! Fine!JEBWrench said:
United States of America then, you know what I mean
OT: The only people I've really seen making fun of Canada are Canadians themselves. I wasn't aware the rest of the world really cared.
Just because people make fun of Canada doesn't mean they hate it. I make fun of Canada, yet I love Canada at the same time.
That which you do not understand, hate.
Canadian history isn't taught anywhere in the U.S. that I know of, but most of the hate is really just joking... I hope. I certainly mean it that way.
