What I do think of Canadians? Back in the early 90's I used to haul in auto parts to a manufaturing facility in Missassauga (sp?). I came in via Buffalo, and came out in Detroit. The Candians I dealt with in those days were a little rude, but I think that came from having to deal with so many asshole truckdrivers over the years. I didn't take it personal, and they weren't really that bad...just a little sarcastic, and full of themselves, but not too hard to deal with overall.

For the most part I like their sense of individualism (I think StanT compared Canadians to Texans), and for the most part my personal experiences with them in the US have been OK. But then people usually mind their manners when they are guests in someone else's home too. I see them occasionally down in the Galveston, near the seawall.

Canadians, being the pacifists that they are, sure do heap a lot of unfair criticism on us Americans. They're a lot like that pain in the ass little brother so many people have. Even though that little brother pisses you off, he's still you're little brother and you don't want anything bad to happen to him.
