  Yeah, i know. See my other reply from moments ago. I’ve never heard the term “ugly Canadian” or railingvagainst their imperialist culture abroad. I’ve seen some latent sense of superiority over them (especially wrt frankophones) but not outright hatred. They aren’t treated like a threat, from my limited experience, and that was before our government went Fascist.

  It’s an old tactic used by American travellers, put a Canadian flag cap or patch on the bag and present themselves as Canadian to avoid the negative stereotypes, I’ve personally talked to more than one American doing this in my life and read about it more often online too. I guess it’s only gonna get more popular.
