I don't know I don't pay attention to it to be honest. We make fun of ourselves just as much as any other country does to us and why? I think its because of two things. One we've gotten used to being made fun of, most of us don't care anymore. Two. We make it so we come off as nice so that anyone who does hate us comes off as extremist.
As a Canadian I won't claim that our country is flawless, that's why I enjoy the Rich Mercer Report, because it makes me laugh to see things that are dumb here being mocked. I also enjoy being able to be a Conservative voter and yet still remain in the centre of the political spectrum. As a nation, we're just as flawed as any, so I don't mind being made fun of, as long as I can dish out on other countries flaws as well. I don't hate for the sake of hate, I mock for the sake of awareness and let me tell you, its just as fun. Just to fan the flames I might get for being a Conservative, let me add one more thing. I like Nickelback's music.
