I hope that you have re-read the Constitution of the United States in these past few weeks. Like the Bible, it ought to be read again and again.

And, in the same way, in the United States, Canadians are not 'foreigners', they are 'Canadians'. That simple little distinction illustrates to me better than anything else the relationship between our two countries.
