I am Canadian. But what does that mean? One of the most Canadian things of all is the inability to pinpoint exactly what makes us Canadian. Is it being not American? Yes, that’s part of it. But that just doesn’t cut it, does it? Canada dodges easy definition. But there are, no doubt, features of this great nation that stand out as clearly Canadian.
