Everyone loves the sterotype and sure it is somewhat justified. However, it is good to know we aren't the only ones :)

HAHA, that's too funny! She must have been sooooo embarrassed....lmao. Did she not remember going through customs?? :blink:

I've heard Americans call our Prime Minister a 'President' several times...and a total mangling of 'Oh Canada' at hockey games....then again I've seen some horribly ignorant Canadians too...haha

I could probably name all 50 states if I had to...and I could probably geographically place about half of them.

I pretty much know all Canadian geography though...

That not as bad as that webmaster who actually took a plane to Hollywood, CA instead of Hollywood, FL for this past summer show.

That was so funny I almost fell out of my chair.
