I hate that even though Canada is so well liked, it doesn't really help much when travelling since people just assume we're fucking Americans. Even more so because of Americans pretending to be Canadians
Like in Argo
My friend wanted to pretend we were Canadian the last time we went traveling and I told them absolutely not. I'm not proud of the US but I don't want to turn that into your problem
Merci pour ça...
I find when traveling just being you is your best bet. Anyone pre judging a traveler on their country of origin is an idiotic waste of your time. Even shitty countries have plenty of decent people. Chances are if they are getting out of their country to visit others they aren't representative of the mean anyway. America is a shit hole country and there are a lot of real losers there, but not so many that it's fair to make assumptions about any random individual. For the most part regular people living there deserve empathy. Imagine just being a normal person and having to live and work there? Imagine if you were there and someone in your family needed healthcare?
You can dust off your Quebecois and give it a try - they certainly won't mistake you for the French.
Zut alors!
