"Yank" is always a fun term when the bloke you're talking to hails from Georgia or Alabama. You get to watch the veins stand out on their foreheads...

I can't think of amny significant Canadian achievements in "summer" suports over the past 20 years. The only name I can remember when I'm on this topic is Ben Johnson. And we all know what he did. (wink, wink)

I wonder if the POMS will resort to accusing the Aussies of racism?

Even though many/most Poms are quite PC-minded relatively to Australians or conservative Americans, I notice that even they can't stand the advanced PC as practised by Canada.

For example, take a note at this forum post and follow discussions between a Canadian monarchist and her British counterparts as to whether the Duke of Edinburgh's humour is PC or not. I found it hilarious:

In yesterday's G&M there was a report about some race hate internet sites run by Canadians being closed down. I notice the story did not run for long - perhaps too embarassing. Given time, I think even the deep white north will have had enough of PC.
