No, that's not what I'm getting at. I'm trying to convey a different perspective.

For example very few houses or business here have flags. It's mostly a car-dealership / cottage thing.

It's actually just jarring to see how many flags are on display in the US even without getting into political sympathies. It's the visual equivalent of someone shouting in public.

That's because you know that most of you are "not American" when you're in Canada.

Travelling Canadians outside the country tend to sprout flags.

Canadian flags. In Canada. As a comment on Canadian culture and US culture-shock. More clear?
