FOR some Americans, to be mistaken for a Canadian is the ultimate humiliation, yet hundreds of US citizens travelling abroad have willingly acquired a disguise of a T-shirt with a Canadian flag.

Traditionally, Americans have looked down on their northern neighbours and Canadians are the butt of a thousand American jokes. But faced with hostility on their foreign holidays, some Americans are going to great lengths to conceal their nationality.

Another of W's achievements of this distinction.

Of course, that doesn't effect the red voter all that much......his/her "foreign holiday" tends to be the NASCAR raceway in the next state! <g>
