That's very well written.

I think the best that can be said is that not all Canadians harbour anti-US feelings or feel superior.
I think that some poeple cope with their countries' lack of influence in the world stage or perceived lack of recognition for their countries' acheivements with an attempt to put down other nations or people.

I think that much of the bad feelings here simply come from people resenting the US' influence in so many areas. I think they feel smothered.

It would be nice if people could respect other countries' ways of doing things and be open to new ideas that may make themselves better regardless of their origin, but many can't handle it.
