Canadians went out of their way to help Americans stranded in Canada after 9.11.2001. Why did Canadians help so much the way they did? We read that Canadians don't particularly like Americans to begin with.

I know, admire, and respect a number of Americans; some of them I’d give my last hundred bucks to if they needed it and never ask why. There’s also some Americans I wouldn’t let lick the sweat off my balls if they were dying of thirst (Trump is at the head of this list, in case you were wondering where I stand).

Because that’s what you do when your neighbour needs help. You help.

As for “Canadians don’t particularly like Americans to begin with”, that’s a crock. Some Canadians don’t particularly like some Americans. Some Canadians don’t particularly like some of America’s policies.

Can you fly an American flag in the UK in your own private property there? What is the UK’s government stance on that? And if yes, do you also have to fly the UK flag or the American flag can fly solo?
