RE: Canada Day - a day or two late but - Shadowspub made me do it
the word Canuck actually has it's origins in the Hawaiian word "kanaka" meaning man ... it was used derisively by Americans toward French-Canadians initially but overtime that connotation has faded away and the term has applied to all Canadians as we've made it our own.
Hah! That is so cool how you Canucks turned that around!
