"This makes me sick.
American's have tarnished their reputations, and now they have to go and ruin someother
countries good name.
How pathetic."

First of all, this little "Be a Canadian" kit was created by a Canadian, not an American, it wasn't our idea. Second, it is meant as a joke, yes
you can waste your money and buy it, but do you actually think wearing a t-shirt or having a decal on your car will make others think your a
Canadian.
Whats pathetic is that anyone would actually think this .
I'm an American, married to a Canadian by the way, and I travel abroad quite often. I have no problems with my nationality, nor do others . Only
ignorant / prejudice people put labels on people and categorize them according to their country of origin. Of course there are some Americans that
totally misrepresent our country, but I think thats true of a lot of people and places.
I think people that prejudge others in this way are no better than those they despise so much.
