[quote=Anonymous]I'm Canadian and would NEVER identify myself as American. I'm surprised if central or south Americans would either. Years ago while traveling in se Asia an old American guy from Boston (Baaaaahstin) as he pronounced it introduced a group of us random canadians and Americans traveling together... He said in his funny lofty accent "we are from America. That includes the United States AND Canada...." We all sat there awkwardly until one at a time all the Canadians said "I'm from Canada".... We all realized it was technically correct of course, but none of us evidently felt it jibe. My now-dh was there at the time, though he was someone I'd barely met at the time... And he will still use this as his favorite jackass American quote.[/quote]
