Beware, that perception may just consider you threatening enough to bomb you.

Not Canada. Dudley Dooright would never threaten us Americans. He's a good guy. Now that Snidley Whiplash ... he's a different story but he clearly wasn't Canadian (I think he was German).

Besides, we can't bomb Canada ... it would ruin the executive fishing vacations.

Meanwhile, back at the Euro crisis, Greek elections on their way. I fear trouble, no matter what the outcome of the election itself.

Na, we're pretty much the same - just like American's and Canadians are the same, despite the maple leaf in Canada's McDonald's logo.

I really hope you just met a really dumb cross-section of America, but it's a faint hope.
