Not at all. If i got pissed off everytime an American show made fun of Canadians, i would constantly be pissed off. You should see some of the stuff we say about Americans. (First of all no matter what part of the states you are from you are a 'yankee')

The national governemnt sponsored network (the CBC) aired an 45 minute long show called 'talking to Americans'. Basically it just exploits how little Americans know about Canada. as well Molson sells their beer under the "I AM CANADIAN" slogan. If you have a chance download the Molson Joe Rant (PM me and i'll send it to you) Basically it is 60 seconds of America Bashing.

in my 'Canadian studies' class last year we came to the consensus that the Canadian culture was defined as "NOT AMERICAN" and thats it. So there is alot of stuff that flys both ways, you just don't get to experience the Canadian retorts.
