I think you accomplish that Dave by judging them on their current actions.

Man...I'm glad I live in Canada lol. Like I mentioned, the only time our nationalistic pride gets poked is when we lose in hockey. Then Jupiter help you. And even then we don't go and riot in the city that beat us, we burn and loot in our own! Just to show you how mad we are. Seriously, can anyone remember the last time you heard Canada "angry", that resulted in more than us talking sternly to whomever made us angry?

Hmm so you are forgetting the squabbels with Quebec wanting to seperate from the rest of Canada, the war with the States in 1812, where there was a try to press northwards? Or the grumbeling about who may use the so called northwest-passage? You might be right that for many Canadians the world is just ice hockey and BBQ but that is making it a bit very easy. I just have to think of various Japanese fishing boats that where impounded in the late sixties and early seventies, for fishing in canadian waters. I remember from that time some rather nasty bumper stickers that are non PC by todays standards!
Also think of the now-a-day grumbeling of the large scale sale of drinking water from canadian lakes to the south, or the issue about not being able to sell canadian beef to the states.
