Des touristes américains préfèrent se faire passer pour des Canadiens

Une entreprise du Nouveau-Mexique, dans le Sud-Ouest des Etats-Unis, a trouvé une solution pour les Américains qui souhaitent partir en vacances en Europe sans avoir à répondre à des questions désagréables sur la politique de leur pays: se faire passer pour canadien...

Pour 24,95 dollars (18,50 euros), T-shirtKing.com commercialise un "déguisement complet", comprenant un maillot blanc décoré du drapeau canadien à la fameuse feuille d'érable, un blason aux couleurs canadiennes à coudre sur une valise ou un sac à dos, une épinglette et un autocollant CDN (Canada) pour les véhicules. Un petit guide en anglais sur le "parler canadien" ("How to Speak Canadian, Eh?"), est également fourni, pour répondre à quelques questions de base sur le pays d'adoption temporaire.

Ce forfait baptisé "Partez Canadien" n'a pas pour but de froisser qui que ce soit, explique le très politiquement neutre Bill Broadbent, PDG de T-shirtKing.com. L'idée de départ est une conversation avec un collègue qui revenait d'un voyage à l'étranger et avait dû essuyer un feu roulant de questions sur la politique du président Bush. Cela ne dérange pas certains mais d'autres "veulent simplement être en vacances. On a plaisanté alors sur le fait qu'ils pourraient partir en tant que Canadiens, et voilà", ajoute Bill Broadbent.

Le forfait, en vente sur le site T-shirtKing.com depuis le 12 novembre, a séduit jusqu'à présent quelques centaines de clients, souvent originaires d'Etats du Nord des Etats-Unis comme l'Illinois, proche du Canada.

Dani Delaney, une démocrate de toujours, a acheté un forfait. Après les élections du 2 novembre qui ont donné un second mandat à George W. Bush, "j'aurais voulu m'installer au Canada, si j'avais pu", dit cette femme de 57 ans. "J'aime leur attitude libérale, progressiste. Et je me suis dit aussi que c'était un bon moyen de protester pacifiquement".

Sylvia Dawson, munie du précieux viatique, s'apprête elle aussi à traverser l'Atlantique, à destination de l'Espagne. Elle s'attend à répondre à quelques questions pièges, comme par exemple le nom du Premier ministre canadien (Paul Martin).

Au chapitre des sports, précise le guide, "les choses sont simples à mémoriser. Il y a un seul sport véritable et ça s'appelle le hockey. Quelle que soit la question, la réponse est 'Wayne Gretzky'", un des plus grands joueurs canadiens.

On reconnaît aussi un Canadien anglais à sa façon d'ajouter l'interjection "Eh", à la fin d'une question, ou quand il parle d'un voyage à "Hogtown" (Toronto) ou "Cowtown" (Calgary), explique le guide avant de livrer un dernier conseil: "Pour que votre voyage soit sans souci, laissez derrière vous toute la politique et partez le coeur léger et l'esprit vif, à la canadienne".

lol, parvaneh just accept that france is not one of the most popular countries, im not saying the us is as well but the difference is that the us is only SERIOUSLY disliked among terrorists. My wish is that one day people will look to iran and say "I wish our country could be as mighty as the persians"

This Lady Parvaneh of course is always much more concerned with the image of her beloved GREEDY, CORRUPT, MULLAH LOVING Adopted country France where she resides in, than even just a bit about our torn devasted country Iran and our freedom loving Iranian nation.
But Lady please wake up!!!
Even many Europeans who have come to the US and have decided to reside here are ashamed of their countries' policies and behavior aND they have decided to blend into the fabric of the American life, in the US The Land Of The Free and Home atrdOf The Brave !!!

Shame on EU and especially France!!!
The Colonialists and the Barbarians have historically been always united in the Carnage and the Destruction of the the world, The exploitation of the billions of people in the Middle-East and Africa.
Your beloved France is up to neck stained with the blood of millions of innocent Africans and especially now us Iranians.

Enough is enough with your French attitute and French Propaganda.
Intelligent, informed and dignified people not for a minute buy these garbage that the French Press and their stuck up croonies try so hard to sell. You can ONLY please the TERRORISTS AND THE TERRORIST REGIMES AND THEIR FELLOW BARBARIANS!

ONCE AGAIN SHAME ON FRANCE THE COLONIALIST!

I'm backpacking through Europe and Asia next summer, and I have no intentions of hiding the fact that I'm a freedom lovin', American free-market Capitalist. We'll see how those Socialist wankers take to that. Wink

I don't know about americans, but when canadians travel abroad, they make sure not be confused with americans. I worked in a clothing store and people came into the store litterally asking for stuff witht the maple leaf on it because they did not want to be confused with americans.
