1. Neil Young.
He's been on Colbert, who is America. That's only one degree of separation.

Come to think of it, Colbert sat in with Crosby, Stills & Nash, in Neil Young drag, making him...Neil Young.

Neil Young = America.

6. ALL Canadians are almost American but no matter how hard they try they
can never fully attain this goal. For, you see, Canada is DECADES behind the U.S. in cigarette lighter technology.

15. Ricky from Trailer Park Boys
Well, he is stupid enough to be an American. That accent of his is pure Canuck, though. I could see J-Roc as a Yank as well.

19. All Canadians are almost Americans, except for the ones who are
always sniveling about how "Canada is part of America too. Blah blah blah. It's the name of the continent. Whaaahh!"
