Why are Canadians anti-american?


Travel Info
Let's generalize here. Canadians do not like us for who we are. Why's that? I don't have anything against Canadians.
You should respect us. If it weren't for the US, there would BE no Canada. That's the brutal truth many Canadians do not like to face.

why do americans hate canadians? BTW guess who won the only fight when US tried to invade canada. Also alot of ur food/water comes from us.

there would be no Canada? Wow. What would happen, would we disappear?

Your post comes off a little arrogant- and that's why Canadians don't like stereotypical Americans.
It's not true that Canadians don't like USAmericans for WHO they are! They dislike some of you for the way HOW they behave towards other nationalities. You give a good example yourself: there would be a Canada without the USA as well as there's Australia and other former british colonies without the USA.

If you let others feel the USA (which is of course NOT America but just a part of it) is the self-declared No 1 Nation of the world you will in most cases get a reply showing that you're not - and this isn't limited to my dear Canadian friends. ;-)

So Canadians aren't anti-american but not pro-american (and why should they be?!!!), and pro-canadian. Why are you anti-canadian as your question implies?
Canadians aren't anti-American, we just don't put you on a pedestal like you expect us to.
Please explain why there would be no Canada?

Here's a brutal truth for you: There has only been one war where Canadians and Americans fought against each other, the war of 1812. We won. Not only did we win, we burned down the White House.

I think it is attitudes like yours that make Canadians dislike Americans. "We like you Canadians, but if it wasn't for us...." If it wasn't for us what? If it wasn't for US you would have no water or lumber or hardly any natural resources. You have squandered yours.
Truthfully Canada is a beautiful country that like the US has its own problems; however, it seems that because of mere proximity it gets dragged in on a lot of our problems that it wisely would prefer not to be associated with.
We don't hate Americans. We actually get a good laugh sometimes, watching what you get up to. What we do hate, actually and there's not many of them, are people that ask a question like this and give an opinion with a rant. You sound like Jzwigger almost.
If there were no US, we'd actually have more Native Americans on the continent and a bigger country. Just a thought.

Edit: This is for Hellbent, not anymore are they in there to support the original American initiative. The Americans are leaving and just the other day, transferred command to NATO.
