This is quite a stupid thread on the face of it..but I suppose it has some merit. Either way, I've moved it to off-topic.

I can't be bothered to judge someone for their nationality, and don't really care for the worthless opinions of those who do.

I've noticed that Americans have a thing about naming their state as opposed to their country when asked where they're from. It's weird to me. Also, Americans seem to find cause for comment regarding the so-called Canadian accent; typically following up with a couple of 'Ah-boot' or 'Eh' jokes.

But, quirks I've noticed aside, Americans are like anybody else — there's a few assholes but for every one there's about ten decent people.

Same in Canada. Dare I say anywhere else too.

I do envy the US's shooting activities and ranges with assault weapons.

I'm American by birth (but nowadays when pushed I'd say I'm British) and my basic feeling about Canada and Canadians is "Awesome, that cold place up North". My family used to go up to Kingston every summer when I was a kid, had a great blast, people seemed friendly and generally at ease with the world.

Nationality really doesn't matter to me anymore, if you're a cunt then you're a cunt.

Not that my opinion is relevant in this thread, as you are asking Americans (I'm British), but to care about somebody's judgement of you as an individual if it is based on what part of Earth you are from is pointless. Seriously. I used to hate Germany and all Germans, being the immature bastard I was. I used to think that the British Empire was glorious. Then I learned about how we treated people. So, I realised that we weren't that glorious, after all.
Now, I just don't give a fuck about where people are from. I like to learn about cultures and societies, but, I don't like or dislike somebody for their nationality. That is just the same as hating somebody for being white, or black, or whatever race you are. Humanity is just so stupid in some ways...

: ( sorry
i have roots in both countries. i have a social security as well as a social insurance number. both systems are flawed and need to be reclaimed by the people.

i currently live in exile in toronto canada.

canada is a dominion, america is a republic.. but to suggest one is any less of a british colony than the other at the mercy of the hands of european oligarchial elite is living in a fantasy world.

the united states and canada have turned into fascist imperialist states along with australia and the uk.

I don't care really. For the most part Canada is cool. I wouldn't want to be in their Health Care system though.

Eh...I disagree.

You pay to live in the US as well in private healthcare. It's virtually non existent in Canada with free healthcare.

But let's stop here...don't want to get into a debate.

I am half Canadian, but I live in the US currently. I don't mind people who get their entire cultural opinions from Southpark, because in all actuality it's mocking that stereotype not encouraging it, and while I have encountered a number of people who will make fun of my negligible accent and my different spellings for some things, it's really pretty pointless.

Uh... We're not a genetic/ethnic heritage like being Jewish or something. I don't think you can be half, a third or quarter Canadian.

...Unless you're a transplant recipient or something... :unsure:
