I am American and I admit I know little about Canada. It’s definitely the media coverage. I probably know more about North Korea and Syria than Canada.

[...] 5. Lifelong Learning – You are a product of what you know, so unless you develop a passion for knowledge, you’ll likely lead a pretty dull lifestyle that’s very one directional. Lifelong learning is not about studying for another degree, but instead it’s more about reading for pleasure, asking questions, analyzing, trying new things and satisfying your curiosities. [...]

Being from the U.S. I totally agree that people from United States are clueless about Canada and honestly clueless about the majority of the world. I think it has to due quite a bit with media. While I was in Europe this summer I noticed President Obama on the news quite a bit over there. Yet here in the U.S. you rarely see foreign officials on our news. Also, alot of people from the U.S. just aren’t that bright.

I have traveled to Canada in the past and it was absolutely beautiful. After the Vancouver Olympics, my wife and I put Vancouver and surrounding area on our bucket list of places we would like to travel.

I think it’s a case of narcissism and lack of education in the American Culture. At one point of time I would said you were the big kid bully, today there are more problems in the U.S. that they don’t know where to begin, yet U.S. continues to meddle in others business by “trying to help” others AKA boost your local economy. United States will never be what it once was – 911 changed that and 2008 Financial Crisis really set the country in. It’s kinda sad to see 47 million Americans living on food-stamps, but harsh times have come unfortunately.
