Honestly, for us Canadians the USA is like that annoying neighbor to the south much the way Mexico is for America.
Canadians now go south to the US for a shopping holiday because the US dollar is so bad. For every Canadian dollar we get back $1.10 US!
The US is like that underachieving school bully that everyone dislikes, but few chose to do anything about. He roams the playground alone, doing what he likes while the rest of the kids are friends, help each other out and enjoy themselves. He punches the other kids in the arm and mocks them for no reason and then tells EVERYONE about how big his house is and how strong his dad is (meanwhile his dads filing for bankruptcy and his parents are getting divorced). Everyone laughs at him behind his back, he knows it but acts just the same way everyday. Canada is like that cool kid that everyone wants be around (the French kid is like that token styli gay kid who is friends with all the girls).
Similarly to Mexicans being in the US-Canadians hate it when Americans come up here. The crap that comes out of the fat arrogant tourists that visit up here is amazing and says something very sad about the state of affairs down there.
Oh and Canada has waaaaaay better trails.
