Is the title of a light, funny little documentary we watched last night.
 
 
Of course, no one outside Canada really cares for that stuff.
I guess I'm sorry for bringing that up.
 
Living outside Canada has helped me put things into perspective as a Quebecer, and to start to "feel" Canadian, and to embrace the identity - most people I know back in Quebec would only reluctantly identify as Canadian, and not before they lecture you about Quebec history for an hour or two.
 
This light-hearted documentary explores what it means to be Canadian. And as odd as it sounds, we found out that we had a lot more in common w/ the rest of Canada than the average Quebecer allows himself to think.
 
Cool stuff.
 
Plus, there's Rush in it. :P 
 
P.S. I'm sorry.

Do you miss wearing a furry toque when you go to the Great White North?

I didn't grow up Canadian, but I was close enough to get there by snowmobile.

I thought you left us all behind.
 
For the record, my favourite South Park episodes are the ones that make fun of Canada. Apparently we fart a lot and are very friendly yet naive. I can own that.

Being Canadian. Sorry if the message was a bit misleading/unclear.

We have a blast with those here too. 
 
I was visiting my wife's workplace recently and they've created this whole South Park-themed room in one of the spaces, and, in true South Park fashion, created cardboard type of characters for the artists and acrobats in the show. Obviously, my lovely lady and all the Canadians have flappy heads. Hilarious. :)

"Analysing" nationalities, when it's done with the right touch, can be very entertaining. I believe most people like it, even if they don't admit it.
We Finns often like to be put in the same cathegory with the Irish, because they're "crazy", the Canadians for their "sanity" and the Japanese for their "introvert weirdness".
