| This would show whether people hate Canadians, hockey, or maple syrup. |

I do not know about nuking Canada, per se. But I would support seizing all the Canadians' Canadian-flag-bearing backpacks, putting them all in one place, and nuking them, once-and-for-all.
And if it meant never having to encounter a flag-bearing hypernationalist Canadian abroad, I would push the button myself... |

GAJ why?
I hate the Canadian flags on backpacks. My coworkers were making fun of about that just yesterday. It is embarrassing. Those of you who have one, take it off. Nobody cares where you are from. Also, the types who have the flag are typically unkempt, fat and, well, smelly. Not exactly who I want representing my country.
As a side question, have any of you ever seen a non-white with the flag on a backpack? I haven't. |

Why not? I mean, you guys can take it, right?
Not about the backpacks as such, but I saw a guy in town the other week wearing a t-shirt that said in Arabic and English "I am not American". That kind of stuff really pisses me off. Apart from anything else, why would an Arab terrorist assume that a random white guy on the street in a New Zealand city is from the US?
Also, I used to get a kick out of seeing Koreans at anti-American protests wearing clothes incorporating US flag designs.

I've been told many times that NZ is one of the least friendly places for Americans on earth. Dunno why.
And yeah, I guess we can take it. Ugh, I hate using "we". They. They can take it. |

I don't know if that's at all true. There's a certain ambient level of antipathy towards US foreign policy here, sure, but hostility to individuals? That would surprise me. If anything, I think most people are quite fascinated and impressed by real-life Americans after having spent so much time watching them on TV. We think they all talk like movie stars, and secretly we want them to approve of our little country. |

If it could be arranged for the hole to be deep enough and the water warmed enough so that the blizzards that come down from Manitoba would be a tad bit less severe, I don't see anything wrong with it. Somehow I don't think Alberta would become overpopulated if 600,000 people moved in and raised the population to 4 million.
I don't think New England would mind if Hudson's Bay were blocked off and heated up, either. |

Tell you what - if it were the case that Academy Council of the Royal Society of New Zealand, the Royal Society, American Association for the Advancement of Science, the National Academy of Sciences, the Intergovernmental Panel on Kiwis being Dicks (IPKD) and so on all agreed that New Zealand is one of the least friendly places in the world for Americans, and most dissenting voices were being funded by the Bungee Jumping Industry, then I'd admit that you have a point here. 
edit: out of curiosity I decided to check out what teh interweb has to say about New Zealanders being dicks to Americans. There are a few articles about the mildly chilly US-NZ relationship post-ANZUS nuclear warship disputes, and a couple that talk about a certain level of latent anti-Americanism. I could only find one article that talked about personal attacks - and I remember this because it was actually national news here last year.
It turns out this middle-aged Californian dude took a job as a highschool teacher in a small town in the central North Island. Apparently things started out pretty well, but his students started verbally abusing him based on his nationality to the extent that the guy ended up filing a lawsuit with our Human Rights Commission (which didn't do anything for the stereotype of Americans being excessively litigious). Of course, this is not at all acceptable, but having been a highschool student in New Zealand I remember all kinds of terrible things said to teachers based on the flimsiest of reasons - I mean, being from Auckland was grounds for abuse if we didn't like the person. However, the same article talks about one guy who has vowed never to return because he was the target of anti-US graffiti, and his children were taunted by their classmates at school, which is pretty shameful for us. Honestly though, it would blow my mind if the people responsible for the graffiti were over the age of 17.
Here's the article: http://www.csmonitor.com/2006/0620/p07s01-woap.html
