Haha, ya its not so much the jokes, we are known for making fun of ourselves quite a bit. It's more the fact that a lot of Americans I met either think my opinions don't matter because I am Canadian or automatically assume they will do better then me at something.

Granted, it is happening less often then in the past.

That's terrible! There are so many better reasons why your opinions don't matter.

lol, I know eh? People should at least justify ignoring me I say!

I'm torn, I love Canada but hate Quebec.

Isn't French Canada practically a different country?

It definitely seems like it. I know they tried to secede a few times, I think the rest of Canada should have let them. French Canadians hate Americans more than the French. I've had experiences where I've heard a clerk speak English, then when I talk to them all of a sudden they only speak french.

We hate 49% of Quebec too!

The other 51% are okay though.

Massively paraphrasing from some of my Canadian coworkers, but the reason the secessions failed was that Quebec only wanted to half secede; they wanted to keep using Canadian money and other such things.

I love Quebec.

Without Quebec I never would have been able to get into the Gentleman's Ballet at the age of 17.
