I think what you need to understand, and why everyone 'likes' Canada, is because internationally Canada is like that nice meek librarian in a sweater vest and thick rimmed glasses.
Very nice, very polite, very helpful, and in no way a threat to anyone. Canada can't stick up for itself outside of Canada, it can't stop anyone from doing 'bad' things, its not a world power of any degree. Canada opted out of this, of its own free will, after WWII. If the US wasn't so powerful you would never have been able to just 'opt out' of the world stage. Its not that Canada isn’t ‘war mongering’ its now almost incapable of going to war.
So when Canadians thump their chest at how great they are, its bound to get some resentment from those in the US who know what Canada could do but instead decided to no longer be, letting us foot the full bill.
