Is that Pompeity as being frozen in hot volcanic ash by a cataclysmic deruption? Or Pompositerousness as in outrageously, stultiferously tendentious of demeanour? The ideal american is a Surfer and pig farmer from california working on an offshore oil rig (surfs to work) and possessing a degree in sociology from Penn State. The ideal Canadian (male) drives a hydrid vehicle, speaks seven languages, and lives in a mobile home that is disguised as an A-Frame. It is parked at a ski- resort. He espouses no education except what he has gleaned from his Cat-in-the-Hat library of 1200 volumes. Of no discernible poltiical or religious affiliation, he has several au-pairs who work wide screen computers to do stocks and recipes for native fruit wines and sells used bicycle parts on E-Bay. His 4 former wives make more money than he does. He has not filled out a government form in 39 years. Probably not born in Canada and has no wish to die there either.

I like some Americans. I dislike some Americans. I like some Canadians. I dislike some Canadians. I have met only a tiny tiny proportion of Canadians or of Americans. LC

AS well as stiffer, more formal, and far more judgemental boarding on pompaity. Could be that they are stiffer and more formal, but I do not find my Canadian friends to be judgemental. It's interesting that you should say that because I find Americans to be extremely judgemental these past few years. Maybe it's because of the relatively recent high profile influence of religion on our political and social life. In any case, the Canadians I know strike me as more of the live and let live variety.
