This is from another thread, but I wanted to pursue it further, so I started a fresh thread.
English Canada is very similar to America, and the reflexive response from Canadians is to differentiate Canada from America, if not bash them outright (which is also a sign of insecurity and immaturity IMHO). Also, you don't see many English Canadians getting all upset when someone takes a run at Britain.
But bashing France gets the separatists in Quebec all worked up. Why?
It appears insecure. Are the Quebecois separatists insecure people?

You realize, of course, that Blackleaf is British. And he's talking about France, not Quebec.
That doesnt matter, france and quebec are like cousin, same origin, basically the same culture.
