Company lets U.S. travelers 'Go Canadian'
http://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/americas/12/07/canada.tshirts.ap/index.html

ALBUQUERQUE, New Mexico (AP) -- An American T-shirt company has a solution for their fellow citizens who want to vacation in Europe without having to answer questions about U.S. politics -- pose as Canadians.

For $24.95, T-shirtKing.com offers the "Go Canadian" package, full of just the kind of things an American traveler needs to leave their country and its politics behind.

There's a Canadian flag T-shirt, a Canadian flag lapel pin and a Canadian patch for luggage or a backpack. There's also a quick reference guide -- "How to Speak Canadian, Eh?" -- on answering questions about Canada.

2. I could actually pose as a Canadian
My accent sounds Canadian and I watch a lot of Canadian TV shows. Some people already think I am from Canada.
