Would it be too much to ask to refer to Canadians in a respectful way?
Why? Respect has to be earned.
I am a Canadian and I am disgusted with many of my fellow Canadians who worship the ground that our 46 year old, teenaged PM walks on. When they start to smarten up, I’ll show a little more respect. While I am venting my spleen, the way AB was and is screwed and tatooed by Eastern Kanaduh is contemptible.
Though I am of UEL stock and originally from ON, I am now an Albertan and it would not take much convincing to make me a full blown Western Separatist.
You mean like addressing it as Canukistan? That's what my relatives in Port Colborne have taken to calling it.
