Ten Reasons Why Canadians Think Americans are Idiots

By Faisal · On August 12, 2009

OK, so the rest of the world might not be able to tell the two apart, but for a Canadian, there’s no greater insult than being mistaken for an American – and here’s why…

  1. Canada has two national languages – some Americans can’t even manage one.
  2. Canada managed to fob Celine Dion off on America – the horse-faced warbler is currently residing in Florida.
  3. America claims it’s the capital of the movie world, but some of the highest grossing recent films, including Twilight and X Men, were made on Canadian soil.
  4. Footage of the Canadian side of Niagara Falls was included in a promotional film designed to lure tourists to the United States – duh!
  5. Measured by landmass, Canada is the second largest country in the world, after Russia – and bigger is better, unless you’re talking about…
  6. Obesity, something that is a MASSIVE problem in the US, mainly due to the country’s inferior healthcare system.
  7. Americans can’t brew beer – hence the joke; how is sex in a canoe like American beer? They’re both fucking close to water.
  8. According to the Human Development Index, which incorporates factors such as life expectancy, literacy rate, gross domestic product, Canada ranked the 4th best country, while the US finished at 12th, behind nations like Japan and France.
  9. The electric light bulb, television, telephone, Velcro, zips, insulin, penicillin, Smarties and Superman were all invented in Canada.
  10. Canada could kick America’s ass at hockey.

Bonus

In the war of 1812, which was started by America, Canadians pushed the Americans back beyond the White House and then burned it to the ground – along with most of Washington, allowing tens of thousands of American slaves to escape and seek refuge in Nova Scotia.

    Seems like you are all arguing that  
    chartreuse is a better color than 
    green .  Both the US and Canada are great places, shown by how many people around the world would love to live in either.

    While I chuckled at several of the observations and certainly do agree with a few of them, some of the 10 on the list are just abject bullschitte! Really?

    There have been some very good observations by some Canadians on the US condition and they are cuttingly objective. Not this one. This one is a collection of mostly some Canadian reaching up their arse, garbage.

    This was a fun read. I’m American, specifically from Florida and for those apologising about original post don’t, I thought it was funny, but then again I’m not an uptight ass wipe. But most amusing were the observations from both sides. I’d like to correct, denounce or input:

    1. Bi-Lingual: From my understanding Canadians speak French or English but rarely both? I know factually many southern states have a large percentage of Spanish/English or Portugese/English speakers.
    2. Saw early on the Canadian claim to Twilight. Well Hollywood did produce it but I insist, PLEASE keep it. Along with Kristin Stewert and what’s his face.
    3. Ben Franklin discovered ELECTRICITY BABY. (first major study, fuck your semantics). Edison made first reusable light-bulb and born from canuks, but lived as an American.
    4. The olympics:
    i.Read someone say Canada held record for most golds at an Olympics with CAN’10 showing? Kinda, a personal record of 14 yes. Globally, the Soviets tallied 55 in the ’88 games.
    ii.All time gold/medal counts:#1USA 1062/2653, #16CAN 111/423,
    eat it >;)
    iii. You will almost always kick our asses on the ice but come on, that 2010 gold medal game was awesome.
    iv. Say someting about basketball? Never. Never ever. Never will you beat USA in hoops. Think of that as our hockey.
    5.1812 (Really?):
    i. You were not Canadians yet.
    ii. That’s fucking hilarious you ate the prez’s dinner, admittedly must be an embarassing moment they refuse to teach here. The burning they do.
    iii. Someone said after the war Canada gave us Alaska… no. We purchased Alaska from Russia. The End.
    6. Someone complained about being “America’s Hat”? I live in Florida, AKA “America’s Dick” so count yourself lucky.
    7.Inports: YES, thank you Canadian neighbors for the oil, we’d die without it. But that’s all we really would be dire without.
    Also, don’t know where this water thing comes from. Here in FL we have aquifer and desalination plants so we’re pretty solid. Similarly one of my states top exports too.
    8. Yes a lot of us are fat.
    9. Yes a lot of us are not very smart.
    10. Of those in 9 some are REALLY not very smart.
    11. Basic education blows in the States these days.
    12. Our Colleges still rock though.
    13. Yes your country is very beautiful, ours is too though (visit Florida) ;-]
    14. Politics: Most of you Canucks are hitting it on the Nose (uhm “very correct” if you guys don’t have that expression). Corrections: The struggle is half are too greedy. A quarter two stupid. And the last quarter torn to pick the least idiotic available candidate/legislature left from those two. YES, there are many that scream shout and plea for some sanity and intelligence, but we are a big country, sadly we get drowned out often, but not always. But for this, our government doesn’t have to ghost assasin protestors, that’s all fantasy silly Canucks.
    15. Am I appropriately using the word ‘Canucks’? Or is that just a Hockey team and not a general term.
    16. And lastly, of most seriousness. WWII (MY Rant)
    I take no issue in Canada’s war time involvments, Kudos to the hands that you do lend. I also know the fact of the large stupidity running a muck in the backwaters of my Country that instigated the above. But how dare those of you who speak ill of the dead, especially noble, honorable men & woman at that. You throw out “only” 400,000 dead like we offered pocket change so FUCK you (those particular not all Canadians). As for “Check your facts”: before officially declaring war we had manufacturing facilities pumping out war utilities full blast in the states, shipping them into the UK despite recuring losses to German U-boats. The western front only lost ~1.5Million lives (All Ally US Included) largely because of our involvement, but mad props to churchill. When we showed up, we represented the majority force attacking Normandy, a human garbage disposal with the fastest death toll seen in European history. As for your Russian figures, they are a bit out of context in the fact Stalin was more of a genoicdal maniac than Hitler. More than half those numbers represent Soviets (boys 13 and up by the way) who died being ushered into open fire with no bullets, sometimes no gun and behind them Stalin’s kill orders on anyone that tried to run other than straight forward. Particularly in protecting his name stake at fucking “Stalingrad.” How bout you pick up a damn book you mouthy assholes found in EVERY country. Lastly, shut that damn mouth about the A-Bomb and the Manhattan project. It is a dark moment in our history that is indeed pounded down as such at various educational stages. Outside Americans/German-Migrant Americans all else had a relatively minimal involvment (in weaponizing) with that NOR should you be pushing to gain more. It is the burden we keep and shoulder as it should be.

    Directed at anyone who makes the point that Americans have the most total gold medals and can beat Canada at any sport but Hockey.

    I bloody well hope so. USA has 10 times the amount of people Canada has. That’s why Canadians always bring up the point that they beat you at Hockey. Because there’s absolutely no reason USA should be losing at any sport against a country with a tenth of the population.

    If Canada had a population of ~310 million, no other country in the world would even attempt to play them in Hockey, and they’d do very well in other sports such as Football, Basketball, and Baseball.

    Just saying.

    I wish I’d seen this blog earlier. Last year I insulted a Canadian couple by including them as Americans. Why did Canada, Mexico etc. give up and let us co-opt the name? We should call ourselves USians (yew ess ians). Then we could all call ourselves Americans, North, South and Central. At least the Mexicans call us Norte Americanos.
    And speaking of who burnt the Capitol I would point out, with my apologies to Mr. Longfellow, there is no way Paul Revere would have ridden throughout eastern Mass. crying out “The British are coming,” because he was British as were all the people he was warning. There were no United States and no USians until 1776. But Longfellow was trying to arouse his fellow USians against the British at the time of the War of 1812. Canadians, Britishers, they were all the same to him.

    some of these comments are… idiotic. for starters, people who claim that “the world would be under nazi control” without the US is WW2 but most of the war with the germans was fougt by the soviet’s, brit’s and canadains. also, we scared the *** out of the germans in WW2 infact, in some cases HITLER himself refused to send renforcements that way more men wouldent meet ‘sertan deth’ (canadins). and one more thing, Canadians did win 1812 and yes, did burn down the wite house.(after eating the presidents supper LOL).
    P.S. the USA dident enter WW2 untill the end of the war after thy were attacked.
    P.P.S. i think it is rong that someone made this thread in the ferst plase, so whoever made this thread, **** YOU!

  • Chloe says: December 28, 2013 at 10:45 pm

    Just a couple of points and corrections.
    1.In the US we have made it a point NOT to have a national language. Check it, it’s true, there is no OFFICIAL language of the US. Not all Canadians speak both English and French, just as not all Americans speak English and Spanish/Mandarin/Italian/Portuguese/German, that doesn’t mean that our country doesn’t speak more than one language. We are the 5th largest Spanish speaking country in the world, and our most prominent language is English.
    2.Celine Dion: Take her back.
    3.Just because a decent amount of movies decided to film on Canadian soil, doesn’t make you guys the “Capital of the movie world.” The UK can say something, because they have Harry Potter (one of the highest grossing movies worldwide), but you can’t. Almost every highest grossing worldwide movie of all time has been American (even adjusted for inflation.) Also you probably shouldn’t brag about helping make Twilight though, just saying.
    4.I’m trying to find some news article, some proof, that actually happened. I’m coming up short. If it did happen, it was probably a mistake so don’t get your panties in a twist.
    5.You are about .061 million sq miles bigger than us, and our population is roughly 9 times larger than yours.
    6.About 1/3 of Americans are obese, 1/4 of Canadians are obese. You are not that far behind us. (Fun fact: the US is not the fattest country anymore, that’s Mexico. Go Mexico!)
    7.I don’t drink, so I don’t care.
    8.I’ll give you number eight.
    9.*The first true light bulb was created by a German scientist.
    *It is often argued who is actually responsible for the first Television.
    *The telephone was physically created in Boston, Massachusetts, and Alexander Graham Bell was born in Scotland.
    *Velcro was created by a Swiss inventor.
    *Alexander Fleming was Scottish and St. Mary’s Hospital (where he discovered penicillin) was in London.
    *Smarties are gross.
    *Superman was created by Schuster and Siegel, in Cleveland,Ohio.
    Also, you act like we didn’t create:
    -The atomic bomb.
    -Lasers
    -Video games
    -The artificial heart
    -3D printing
    -The transistor
    -And we put a man on the moon.
    9. I can’t think of any country other than Canada who actually cares about Hockey. Most of America, unless you go REALLY far up north, doesn’t care about hockey. It goes: (American) Football, Baseball, Basketball, then Hockey.

    Inventions-
    The electric lightbulb is a drawn out invention contributed by Sir Humphry Davy, Warren de la Rue, Frederick de Moleyns, Joseph Wilson Swan (all English) and Thomas Edison (American) but was worked on world wide by over 20 inventors.
    the TV invention was contributed by Paul Gottlieb Niphon but it was John Logie Baird (Scottish) who first transmitted a moving picture of 12 images per second (the amount needed to be classed as a moving image-ie a tv broadcast) another ‘but’ before he did that Alan Archibald Campbell-Swinton published papers on achieving “electric vision” a how to guide if you like (i think he may of been Scottish too but nit sure so we’ll call him British!)
    The telephone invention goes to non other then Mr…..Innocenzo Vincenzo Bartolomeo Luigi Carlo Manzetti (yes that is one hell of a long name!) An Italian! (i was like wow the Italians….really!)
    Velcro was a Swiss bloke called George de Mestral- you all remember the story about his little walk in the country with his hound and when he got home all manner of shit was stuck to his clothes and….well…the rest is history.
    Zips got to give it to the yanks they have made many men cry in the toilets when rushing to zip up in a hurry! Everyone can blame Elias Howe for that.
    Insulin- has a remarkable history: Frederick Banting (canadian) and Charles Best (American) did a lot of research on dogs and with the help of James Collip (canadian) and JJR Macleod (Scottish) moved on to treating humans but did you know that Paul Langerhans, Oskar Minkowski, Joseph von Mering (germans) and Ètienne Lancereaux (french) contributed to early work with insulin but it was in fact a Romanian fella called Nicolas Paulescu who really found links to diabetics and insulin? In fact his early work paved the way for everyone else to base their work on so technically it was him who discovered it!
    Penicillin- good ‘ol Alexander Flemming (Scottish) gets the glory here, further work with penicillin was with Howard Florey (Australian), Ernest Chain (German) and Norman Heatley (English).
    Smarties- my fav sweets as a kid! Are in fact English (no wonder most of us Brits have bad teeth with inventions like them! Thank God for the American who invented dental floss!)
    Superman was a joint effort by two geezers called Jerry Siegel (American) and Joe Shuster (canadian) and still is today an awesome character!
    So from today’s history lesson we learn that in western society no one is really better then anyone else and it takes a joint effort from scientists and inventors across the globe to come up with and perfect EVERYTHING we have today to make our short lives on this planet more enjoyable….peace out dudes and goodnight……

    Reasons why America is better than Canada
    .We use technology more: how many twelve year olds in Canada do you think use Instagram….
    .We are more social: Most american kids and adults hang out and do stuff. Most Canadians just sit in their big houses saying eh….
    .We are better at sports: Lol Canada invented basketball but even American 7 year olds beat them at it…. so much for being good at the sport they invented.
    .Military is better: I’m pretty sure ISIS could take over Canada without breaking a sweat.
    .More Americans are popular: Bill Gates, Warren Buffet etc. are not only billionaires but are also known around the world. If you go to any country in the world and ask anyone to tell you any Canadian billionaires…. even I can’t think of one.
    .More people are likely to come to America: Someone call me when millions of people are willing to cross the border and come to Canada.
    .Most popular Canadian musicians all have houses in the states: Why cant Justin Bieber and Drake have houses in their birthplaces….?? someone try to answer that one..
    YOU CANADIANS CAN CALL ME WHEN YOUR
    KIDS START DONATING TO AFRICA AT A YOUNG AGE…

    AMERICA ALL.THE WAY

    America creates more Pollution, second to china, and Canadian children are more advanced in math, English, and Science. Many Americans have to cross the border to pay for health care and Canadians don’t. Americans are more impulsive than Canadians in regards to passing racial profiling upon an individual, thus the greater fatality and risk of injury that average American face daily.

    Who gives a shit about James Cameron and Celine Dion nobody really likes them that much. Canadians don’t like that they aren’t a global superpower like we are and that’s the truth. So they will say anything to justify that they are as worthless as a country can get! No greatest films of all time were made in Canada trust me. Citizen Kane? The God Father? Pulp Fiction? Goodfellas? Scarface? Also, All the Canadians I know which is about 8 are overweight. Do you think i’m joking? Also Spanish is a U.S. National Language. All your arguments are desperate literally you are getting anything you can scrape. Facebook, Google, Youtube, Microsoft, the NBA, Nike, and Twitter. All of these are American and I bet WordPress is as well.

    Sometimes I wonder why the U.S. and Canada (and a bunch of other countries) can’t just get along and make the world a better place together.

    Then I remember that 99.8% of our populations are ignorant about each other and/or just hate each other. Also some side notes,
    1)comparing a country of 35.16 million to a one of 301.3 million is pretty laughable.
    2) Oh, American expansionism into native lands and wars in Middle East are bad? Well, at least we are not as bad as the rest of empires which pretty much did what we did, but worse. But still, what we are doing there is really bad but I don’t want to say anything at the expense of probably being called a wuss.
    3) Canadians Didn’t burn the White House http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/washingtonsack.htm
    4) Some Canadians are just as bad as Americans.
    5) The reason I think the actually literate Americans don’t always respect the accomplishments of other countries is because others don’t do the same, like during the Spanish-American war when we fought and defeated another empire that wasn’t Britain. or during WW2 when we faced the hardest beachhead of all the beaches and still broke through, or two more during WW2 when 1. we faced the brunt of the German counter attack in the Ardennes and 2. when we pulled most of the weight during the Pacific theatre (not downplaying the bravery of the Kiwi, Australian, British, and to some little extent, Canadians and Soviets though).
    3)

    To the Canadian who said that Quebec is not the only bilingual province, I say that New Brunswick is the only officially bilingual province. Yes, there are sizeable French-speaking communities in many provinces. The greatest number outside Quebec are in Ontario, which is not bilingual, but does offer French language services. To the American who suggested that Csnadians did not participate in the Ware of 1812, the Canadian identity and especially that of Canadiens (French) predates Canadian Confederation. The Province of Canada existed between 1841 and 1867. Canadians certainly fought under the command of the British, but they were Canadians nontheless. Last, Jim Carey is not only Canadian, but his Carré ancestors were French Canadians.

    Hello. You asked for an intellectual response and I hope this constitutes as one. I do not believe that one country is superior to another but I will say that we are different. Canada, by its very nature is diverse, thus leading people to believe we are more tolerant; be that as it may, America is more adherent to a core set of values. America’s conservatives tend to be more religious iwhile Canadian conservatives are not nearly so religious The whole of Canada is far more left wing than America, thus causing people to believe it’s more tolerant but is it? Well, it is up for debate, as all this is.

    By the way , the US did not burn down most of Toronto , they TRIED too and further more, we invaded your country and beat the snot out of you , pretty bad actualy, ever hear the saying ” the british are coming “? ya well they were refering to us, because Canada was mostly British and even our history predates  the US by a LONG shot.

    Back to the war of 1812 , we actualy owned Alaska  and afew other states as well, but when the war was over ( guess they got tired beating the snot out of your country ) they settled and as a gift we gave you those states back including Alaska , even though that belonged to us, not you, but hey , takes a  bigger person to make amends then having the USA acting like a whinning kid that wants everything, but yet again you can think all you want about the fantastic USA and your idiotic media keeps bashing Canada , there’s no wonder why most countries hate the US because most of you guys think your better then everyone else, and you don’t want to make to many enemies , because I don’t care who you are, you piss to many people off and your dead simple as that, look what happened to the romans.

    P.S before you quote someone on ” Facts ” make sure you get them right , because alot of those facts are different per website and that does not paint a actual picture of the said situation, or argument.

    P.P.S the the idiots who say that Canadians are Americans? If your a landed imagrant, time to leave and go back to whatever country you came from because you have NO clue what our national history is nor should you be here since you can’t respect our laws, and if you are one of those people who were born here and had family here for hundreds of years , then you should know better, go back to school learn history because it’s idiots like you that make our country look bad.

    Funny that you like to think that, but yet , here we have it another American thinks that without their help blah blah blah.

    Did you know in WW1 the US was NOT involved? and also in WWII , the USA did NOT get involved until the end of the war? Might want to pick up a history book every now and then, you guys only got involved because of pearl harbor.

    Funny I keep seeing ” Hand me down government” ? what the hell does that mean? This is a classic example of someone with very very little education and knowledge in the facts of Federal government procedures.
    The fact that you can sue almost anyone in the states for any amount of money is stupid , yet we have laws that prevent that, also, the whole econemy crisis started in the USA , the biggest shit storm we have ever seen, Why it started there? Because some fucking idiot decided to give out loans to buy homes of half a million to amillion dollars and that person could be making eight bucks per hour and they don’t have to pay it back until four to five years and ontop of that they get alittle extra money they could put towards their new home or car, yet when that period came up for payments , we had seen people default because they couldn’t afford it , and yet we see tons and TONS of towns in the fantastic USA that are abandoned ghost towns because of defaulters because of an idiot choice made by the banks in the USA and yet that hurts everyone, and of course the USA still thinks they are the best hahaha makes me sad and sick because these people are the most ignorant people we have ever seen. Goto other countries and say your from Canada , people love you ,say your from the USA oh man better say your from some where else!

    P.S the American national athem doesn’t suck it’s actualy pretty good , because in that song it describes Canada kicking your ass , listen carefuly LOL.
    P.P.S the only reason why you guys lead in the Olympic games ie because your population is bigger and you have more money to burn on useless endevors, while WE our hand me down government ( haha this guy is an idiot ) does not help our athletes out much , however in the US ,man they get all kinds of shit, wanna have it easy folks? Move to the states the home of the fucking ignorant and lazy, want to make something of yourself? and live in the land of the truly free? Then Canada is for you.

    So yeah, thats my rant, and Shane stick with that idiototic way of thinking because we all think your a smart guy haha, fucking idiot.

    You do know that the United-States being capitalist as you said yourself, would never go to help anybody if they did not have anything to gain from it, or else they would have helped Mexico a long time ago(Mexico being the closest country to the US who really does need help). So any war it contributed to was only to gain something out of it(which it did). US never saved Canada’s ass because Canada is a pacifist country who do not rely on violence in order to resolve its problems. Both countries have good and bad sides to it, you might be proud but don’t disrespect Canada. In the US there are also a lot of people relying on the government to give them everything. Yes Canada might be more on the socialist side but don’t think we all rely solely on the government. The tax rate is higher therefore we get more services. So basically everybody pays so that everybody can take advantage of those services. Your comment totally shows the ignorance of a lot of people in the US. It’s good to be proud of your country but you have to know your facts, you say you can’t compare the two but that is because you have barely any knowledge of how it is in Canada. Having lived in both countries shows me that they aren’t so different when it comes down to what is really important. The title of this article is a bit offensive I must admit, the author should have said ignorant (I mean it as not knowing) instead of idiot.

    Your a bunch of insensitive assholes. Canada has more money than the US and less than a tenth the population. Remind me again.. What’s your debt now? If Canada attacked America we would have so many supporters.
