As a canadian, I can tell you that the current administration hates all foreign countries (Except Britain). The level of condescednding hatred that comes out of Washington towards us is palpable.
Politically speaking, I can not EVER remember relations between our nations being so low. (But I am too young to remember when Lyndon B Johnson grabbed our Prime Minister Pearson by the suit lapels and physically shook him because Pearson (a noble peace prize winner) would not support Vietnam. 
But on a personal level, I must admit that I find Americans to be both an interesting curiousity, some of the most generous people you will ever meet, and like you guys just fine.

Hates? That's not true James, the friction bit is true enough, I don't think we've called anyone "bastards" though.
