I would say that still is the defacto world view of Canada.

And I am sure this is still the way they are seen, right!

You Canadians are so lucky! The country I was born in is known for drugs, hookers and wind mills... Here we have all the natural beauty to be proud of, most people are open and relaxed: what more do you want? Stop being insecure and be proud of Canada.

lol, look who we have to the south.

Well, we can't make them go away... I don't know if you guys have read the comments of the article mentioned in the first post, but I read a lot of stupidity when people mention Canada and all non-canadians can come up with is: snow, lumberjacks, rcmp, igloos and polar bears. Italy is not pizza, future-Atlantis (Venice) and maffia, as Germany isn't Nazi's, apfelstrudel, Berlin wall and the best cars in the whole wide world. It's stereotyping!

And when they come to the Olympics and see the Canada Pavilion, it will STILL be how they see us...

lol I mess with anyone who stereotypes Canadians, make them think it's true. It's really fun you should try it some time.

This has always bugged me about Canadians, we are always 'seeking' approval for everything. It drives me nuts.

The photos look like a fantastic snapshot of Canada, even if they do pander to some stereotypes.
