I know this is pretty cliche, but I always hear things about how everyone doesn't like Canadians? Why is that? I know someone from Ontario, and she's really sweet. But other than that I know nothing about Canada. What's the big deal?
"They are drunks, who apparently have nothing better to do than have sex and get wasted and they've got some AWFUL tempers."
Let me use this as an example. Does alcohol or sex have anything to do with being Canadian? Absolutely not. When people begin to relate traits to a group of people they expect to have bad relations with them. It is ridiculous to believe that everyone from one country or race is going to be the same. As people mature and are exposed to a variety of people they begin to understand that where a person lives is not necessarily a good indication of how they will act.
I'm glad to see you are educating yourself and considering the facts before following anyone elses' opinions. It often only takes one individual to taint a person's opinion of a country. Being a Canadian, my opinion is both educated and biased. I know people from several countries and I have found that there are 'good' and 'bad' people everywhere. If you are still curious, try talking to more Canadians and form your own opinion of them, that is the best way to learn about a country and it's people.
