I don't think it has to do so much with whether Canadian cigarettes are better or worse than American (taste wise that is) as it has to do with what you are used to and prefer. At home, my brand is Matinee but I'll smoke my boyfriend's DuMaurier if I run out and I don't mind them. I'll smoke Belmont's at the bar if I run out because Belmont's and Benson and Hedge's are all they will sell and I don't like B & H.
Take beer for example. I can't stand American beer. I had a Samuel Adams at a restaurant in Cleveland one evening and it was so disgusting that I couldn't finish it. On our way back to the hotel we stoped at a store and picked up some Canadian beer (Export - I don't really like that either but my boyfriend does), but I will drink it over an American beer any day. But if I had always been drinking American beer I might really enjoy it because that what I know and what I am used to.
