why don't you like us, eh?

riddle me this.

why do the canadians hate the americans so much?

i have been watching the bronze medal game of the IIHF junior world hockey championships, and i have noticed that they boo the american players and cheer when the opposing team (finland) scores. i would think that they would want any team (that they aren't playing) from North America to beat any team from across the pond...but i guess not.

although last year when the canadians were playing the russians in the gold medal round of the 2005 juniors, my family and i cheered as hard as we could for the canadians. i felt a little comforted that the U.S. weren't playing the canadians because they were a much better team than us.

so please friends, enlighten me to as why the canadians don't like us.

Because we're mean to them. We make fun of them all the time. They probably harbor a grudge, eh?

I didn't run into any anti-American sentiment in Toronto, but then again I didn't go to a hockey game, either.

They're jealous. That must be it. Ah, those Canadians and their flapping heads...
