How does the world see Canada

[Dr. Gorgenflex]

The escapist is a global community, and I was curious to know how do the citizens of other countries see Canada, be honest.

Edit: If you guys haven't figured out, I am Canadian, and Curious.

Canada FTW

Then again, I'm from Canada so I'm a bit biased...lol

Seriously, I think the world probably sees us as laid back, kinda in the background. Maybe they see us as peacekeepers, or maybe just like some out-o-the-way country. I'm actually kinda interested to see what people think too.

I always thought it was peaceful, cool, and well yah just a good place to live. oh and i like poutine.

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

well... I suppose... I hear that you have good bacon in Canada.

As a Canadian, I can attest: This is the truth.

 

[Blanks]

i live in Canada and i don't see it doing much and certainly not leading the world

we are doing a fine job in Afghanistan though

Edit: our politics are hilarious and chaotic

 

[Aardvark]

We see Canada as a country made up of one third Mounties, one third Lumberjacks, one third Moose, all who play hockey, while a twirly-mustached undertaker ties damsels to traintracks

Me being Mexican, Canada to me is a bit ehhh............
The Bacon you guys have though, is delicious

I don't think much of it, really, as I don't know a thing about it. I know that the creators of Unskippable are from Canada. I know that trade with Canada is very important to the U.S.

I've been thinking of doing some non-school studies on Canada, actually. It's a very close country to mine, and it makes me feel a little like a stupid, ignorant American that I don't know anything about it.

'It's some country somewhere, who cares?'

In England, at least.

When i took a french class years ago and saw pictures of canada it looked like a nice place to go to.

Otherwise canada sounds like a laid back place not unlike some places in my area.

Oh yes and i love a few cartoons and shows from canada. Are You Afraid of the Dark to name one...

 

[Zersy]

Well I was born in canada and been there enough times.

and overall it's a nice place. nothing wrong about.

When it's summer it's hot

When it's winter it's always a snowday

and lots and lots of other nice kinks like a great pace to go camping with a few friends.

so ya canada is all good.

OT: Canadians are cool, laid back, fun guys that just don't really care about much. Livin life.

I see Canada as a glorious nation filled with beautiful beaches, tropical weather, and a wonderful destination to get away from those cold winter nights. I just wish the citizens weren't so goddamn ugly and war-mongering.

Reminds me of sliced bread, you don't hate it but its not that great either. (U.S. btw)

 

[Chevalierdulait]

In Canada we are trained from a young age to fight off wild animals with nothing but our bare hands.

I'm from Australia, and we seem to have the same holidays or some shit because we always run into you when travelling. I see you guys as generally a bunch of easy-going drunkards who are a little bit silly - which is exactly how i see australians which would explain why we seem to get along so well. Oh, except that you're a bit colder. We play field hockey, you place ice hockey. Nice place to live but not so exciting a tourist destination.
