The most amusing misconception found while living along the border is that most Americans think "why they are just like us".
Nope, far more like England and Australia. One need look no farther than the gun laws and allowing one Province to have all signs in English torn down or painted over. Even our whack job state of Kalifornia has not gone off that cliff.
At least you don't have "home grown terrorists" blowing things up (yet).
After we (USA) go down the loo, it will be interesting to see how the new "nation states" are arranged. Betcha it will have far more to do with work ethic and guts than race, religion or heritage.
Loved to visit when the US dollar was strong ...... now it's cheaper to stay home.
