I am friends with several Canadians and I have never ceased to be amazed by their eagerness to submit to authority. They don't see it in themselves. They like to brag, "Canada is the only country where you can pie your politicians." They think that means they're defiant.
Canadian women are the worst they never shut up about their delusion that they whole world loves Canada because (and I'm quoting), "'We're so cute, cuddly and nice to everyone! Not rude and violent like Americans!" Same group is offended and stunned when they find the only thing other countries know about Canada is "maple syrup".
I met some Austrian special forces guys who joked, "And wtf does Canada do for this planet? Zero. They think indifference is the same as being liked." Harsh, but I got what they're referring to.
Canadian women form giant cliques of Canadians only in other countries then brag how they spend hours gushing about "Cute Canada" and their worship of "Tim Hortens" and "How every other country loves Canada so much because we don't start wars".
I don't get how Canadians got this brainwashed even Vermonters are more awake than most of Canada. I feel bad for our based Canadian pedes. It must be hard living among that high of a concentration of sheep.
When I asked what is "Canadian culture" all I get are shallow things like "aboot" and how they say "I'm sorry" and "Mounties. I asked "Who are you (as a people)?" and even they can name anything. The only history they know is "We burned down the White House" (WRONG: The Uk did it and they tagged along).
History is what defines who you really are. US culture has depth from being born out of war. When I ask Canadians how they became a country they're like "We asked really nicely and the Queen said ok". facepalm
It's a pity because Canada has so much going for it. If they'd open their eyes and stop basing their nationality off stupid things like "Tim Hortens", "Not America" and "Maple Syrup" they could be so much more.
That seems to be the majority of Canadians I've met. But I've only met Canadians who were living abroad. Maybe they're not as bad about the dumbass Tim Hortens shit in Canada itself. However, the ones abroad are notorious for this.
How is the brainwashing in your area? Is it as bad in your area as it for the original commenter? Are there some bright spots in Canada still?
I've never heard a single Canadian, except on TV, say it, yet every Canadian I talk to swears it's a real thing even though they never use it themselves.
Yeah, I appreciate this comment for a few reasons, but the biggest one is, when I was about 19 years old, I guess, I began to participate on a discussion forum like this one, dominated by Americans. At that age, it was extremely eye-opening to hear what people from other countries really thought about us, instead of the self-serving mythology we tell ourselves. Your comment underscores that.

I don’t know anyone like that.
Lucky.

When is this "aboot" nonsense going to end!? 54 years in Canada and I've only heard it from people outside canada describing us.
I definitely say aboot.

In your part of Canada?
Isn't that like in Germany how it's empty street, 3 am, no one in sight, and they still wait for the green light to walk across the street?
