Canada has no identity. Our dear leader has said so. But it's true, how can you have an identity when you worship at the alter of diversity. 
When you don't have an identity it's easy to resent others who do, and that is our history. We resent the US, in particular, because they have such a strong identity and so we build ourselves up by tearing them down. Anything they say or do we say or do the opposite just to prove we're different. This is made all the easier in times like this but in the long run this attests to our shallowness and weak kneedness
