Why I Hate Canadians by Will Ferguson
First published in 1997, this hilarious book launched satirist Will Ferguson's career. Challenging the notion that Canadians are nice, the book asks, Do we as Canadians deserve a country so great? Tackling subjects from Canada's favorite inbred royals to the mighty beaver as national icon, from sex in a canoe to all-Canadian superhero Captain Canuck, Ferguson rampages across the cultural landscape. The book also provides a fast-paced, opinionated overview of telling moments in Canadian history, including its run-amok Mounties and fun-loving days of the country's (unacknowledged) slave trade.Will Ferguson was born in the Alberta town of Fort Vermillion. Why I Hate Canadians, his first book, was a national bestseller. Bastards and Boneheads and Canadian History for Dummies are two of his most recent books. Ferguson is also the author of Hokkaido Highway Blues, a critically praised travel story, and The Hitchhiker's Guide to Japan, a budget traveler's favorite.
