Are extremely patriotic to their beer.

Americans:
Are flag-waving, anthem-singing, and obsessively patriotic to the point of blindness.

Can't agree on the words to their anthem, when they can be bothered to sing them.

Brits:
Do not sing at all but prefer a large brass band to perform the anthem.


Americans:
Spend most of their lives glued to the idiot box.

Canadians:
Don't, but only because they can't get more American channels.

Pay a tax just so they can watch four channels.

Export all their crappy programs, which no-one there watches, to Britain, where everybody loves them.

Will jabber on incessantly about hockey, hockey, hockey, hockey, and how they beat the Americans twice, playing baseball.

Spell words differently, but still call it "English".

Brits:
Pronounce their words differently, but still call it "English".

Canadians:
Spell like the Brits, pronounce like Americans.

Aussies:
Add "G'day", "mate" and a heavy accent to everything they say in an attempt to get laid.


Brits:
Shop at home and have goods imported because they live on an island.
