Why do so many Americans make Canada jokes?
 
100% serious. Is it jealousy?

That's the best Canada joke I've heard in a while.

If Canada was a kid, it would be the big fat kid in every school that's not too bright and always picked last for sports.

We sort of think of Canada as the 51st state. Or, perhaps as America-lite.

I think you mean its the country thats thought of in much higher regard than the US by other countries.

So its the popular kid everyone else really likes, instead of the bully fat kid who scares people into saying they like them.

Because it pisses Canadians off much more than it should. And that is entertaining.

I don't know, I think the Canada jokes are almost as witty as the France ones. <font color="white">::rolls eyes::</font>

Right. That fat stupid kid is always nice to the other kids so he doesn't get beat up. No harm if he thinks he's popular.

I think it's because the United States is the only country in the world that can do whatever it wants without the support of the international community (not that I'm saying we should, that's something for politics, I'm just making the point).
