Seriously.. everyone is so quick to delve out fucking stereotypes. Talk about inferiority complexes.

Why do stereotypes not work?

I'm American and have a 168 IQ. That would score within the top 2% in the world. Sloi is the only one here I know who is comparable.. a Canadian.

And then at work, I'm training a Canadian from Ontario. He can't spell, can barely add and since coming to the United States has failed to obtain his GED after three separate attempts.

In our on-site sales department, we have a Quebecer.. who about a month and a half ago asked me how the US monarchy and real government work together and how someone from the country of Texas could become the President of the US. Not to mention he still can't grasp that North and South Carolina are different states.

This isn't to say that America doesn't have idiots, it's to say that we don't go hunting Canadian morons to put on television shows. This is a perfectly classic psychological example of emotions common to the masses being played upon and marketed to an audience compelled to watch in order to compensate for an inferiority complex. If you disagree, please feel free to PM me for the e-mail address of my Newfie psych 140 professor (moved to the US just over two years ago) who will likely be glad to explain it to you.
