We've travelled

‘down through the

United States a fair
amount and you meet
a few Americans who
know very little about
Canadians. There is a
small faction that
seems to believe we
live a pioneer,
backwoods lifestyle.
Americans, however,
tend to know a lot
more about Canada
than Mexicans do. In
Mexico,- people tend
to believe if you live in
Canada you’re from
Quebec. I've always
found the Americans

very friendly and I

haven't thought too
much about how in-
formed they are about
us. | will be going to
the States in February
and will make a point
of paying attention to
how much they do
know about us.

Grethe Brorup
1 would say geo-

graphically and
historically, Am-
ericans probably

know very little about
Canada and Cana-
dians. Except for
those aspects, | think
Americans are inform-
6d about Canadian na-
tional Issues through
media sources. After
all, we are neighbors
and news travels fast
today.

The Terrace Review asked:

‘How much do you think the average zt
‘American knows about Canadians? _

Denis Raymond

The average
American has little
idea, it seems, of the
Canadian lifestyle. |
think a lot of the time
they believe It is cold
up In Canada all the
time. When I lived In
Elliot Lake, Ontario, it
wasn't uncommon to
see tourists arriving in
town with skis on the
roof of their cars,
basically prepared for
winter during the sum-
mer, -

Phil Olson

| think Americans
know very little about
Canadians. Not in:
cluding Expo 86, |
don't believe people
south of the border
know much about
Canada. On the world
market we sell goods
and provide services
to representatives in
the United States but
other than that
association they don’t
seem to know much
about us. | think politi-
clans north of the
border tend to pro-
mote Canada but |
don’t think our politics
have much impact on
American lifestyles or
political decisions. In
the southern States
they seem quite unin-
formed about Canada.
| have relatives in
southern Callfornia
and if it were not
for correspondence

Jim Williamson —

1 don't think that
Americans know as
much as they should
or as much as you
would imagine they
might about Cana-
dians. | think they
assume we're very
much like them.
However, there are dif-
ferences just as there
are differences be-
tween Canadians
across Canada. |

Rick Prest

Pierre Trudeau,
Brian Mulroney and
Jim Pattison have
done a good job of
making Americans
aware of Canadian
people. Expo is a
great help to our
publicity and will pro-
vide a greater
understanding of
Canadians. Generally,
| would say that the
Americans know us

fairly weil.

through letters, they
would have no in-
terest in events north
of Oregon, let alone
Canada. Generally, |
don't think Americans
know a Jot about us,
nor do they care to.
They are not taught a
great deal about us,
but then, neither are
we concerning them.

For many local residents of Celtic ancestry, the Terrace Pipes and Drums provided a stlr-
ring element of the highlands during the Riverboat Days parade.
