A new poll says Canadians have swagger.
That’s how Canadian Press is reporting on the poll, conducted by Ipsos-Reid for the Historica-Dominion Institute.
“…the Canadian sense of national pride is becoming an in-your-face swagger.”
I’m not sure if this is true. I’ve known patriotic Canadians my whole life, people who have been willing to stand tall and say I am Canadian. Of course for my whole life my better thans have been saying we should just pipe down, not be so loud. We’ve been told that patriotism, at least the in your face style, is an American thing. Bull.
