    And for Americans traveling outside of the US - If you want to have a relaxing vacation, iron-on Canadian flags are about $2 a flag.

      Sorry to break it to you but Americans are identified by sound way before they are identified by sight

      I remember a time when a lot of US backpackers would sew Canadian flags onto their packs so they could travel Europe in relative safety.

        When I took a travel job in my early 20s I was handed some Canadian pins/luggage tags/etc for this exact reason.

        I’m definitely still tempted to tell people I’m from Canada
