Every Canadian I've ever met doesn't like to be called American. Don't know about the other countries, but I'd assume it's the same.

They prefer North American in my experience, if not simply Canadian.

Wait, when David Bowie sang "I'm Afraid of Americans," was he singing about us Canadians too?? This never even occurred to me as a possibility.
