You people should be boycotting the CBC, our government broadcaster, as all of us Canadians who crave freedom do. They are brainwashing you boys and girls.

Keep in mind what their true mission is; it's not to inform and it's not to entertain. It's to promote a particular political philosophy (the so-called "Canadian way"). Mocking Americans is of course a key part of that.

I wonder how all of you Liberals would react to an identical show on the CBC called "Talking To Mexicans" - ah, now that would be different! It would quickly be labelled "racist", and worthy of condemnation for sure.

I personally can't stand shows like "Talking To Americans" - it's just too obviously propaganda for the simple-minded and insecure. You see it in teenagers all the time - make yourself feel better about yourself by mocking those who are close-by but different.

As I get older and older I am becoming more embarassed to be Canadian. We are a nasty, hypocritical, self-serving bunch.
