Yes, it does for me as well. That’s why it’s used. Nobody discriminates against Canadians (except maybe other Canadians). That’s why it’s code for much more vile words.

It’s a new one on me, too.
I’d have thought it was a code word for “liberal.”

A couple weeks ago I heard Terry Bradshaw call Jimmy Johnson a “lead weasel”.

Never heard that one.Me either. If someone has said "Canadian" was used as code, I would have thought it would be code for "leftist".
