Generally, Canada is just dismissed by RPG's as very few games bother with much information about us. I don't think this is intentional, just that most people just don't know anything about us. We really haven't done anything to make a splash on the world stage. I really hate myself for saying this but except for Quebec and the East Coast most Americans would have a hard time telling us apart from other Americans. So for all you game developers out there here's some Canadian stereotypes to help portray us better:- English speaking Canadians (Anglophones) are highly annoyed by French Speaking Canadians (Francophones). French Canadians think English Canadians are self absorbed pricks. We probably are.- East Coasters think anyone to the West are crazy and everyone to the West KNOWS the Maritimers are stark raving nuts.- Those out West (Everywhere from Saskatchewan to BC) hate everyone to the east. Everyone to the East tends to forget there are people out West except Vancouver which is a nice place to go hiking.- Everyone in the Territories wishes the rest of Canada remembered they were there. Sometimes we do.- And everyone, absolutely everyone, hates Toronto. No really, they do.Jack</blockquote>
