Then perhaps you should explain in what way I'm mistaken. It is fairly peculiar to hold up Washington as a model for a Canadian leader and then speak of him as a British puppet as if that somehow is out of character with Canadian identity. Macdonald was even born in Scotland and actually converted to Anglicanism.

Canadians basically compare ourselves to Americans all the time. It is how we know who we are.
