Well, I've just gotten accustomed to just being in Canada for five and a half months a year.

The question about my Canadianness comes up a lot, and I'm never quite sure what to say about it. I've carved a life out for myself in Oregon, and it feels like home, not because it's the States but because that's where my friends are and where my son is.

We emigrated to South Africa and later to Canada so I went to school in several places.

You hear stories like that of Canadians trying to get in, but when you go back home, you don't expect that.

Canada has been phenomenal to myself, my brother, my sister, their kids, my parents. They came there. They worked very hard. They came with a great education, very good heads on their shoulders with the simple thought of going there with almost nothing and just saying, 'We're doing this to give our kids the best opportunity possible.'

I'm a very cultural person, and Canada is a very cultural place.

I spent my childhood in Newfoundland and then my junior high and high school years in Alberta, Canada.

A lot of Scots have settled in Canada over the years and it's a very easy place for Scots - they understand us, we understand them.

My parents were both from Scotland, but had been resident in Lower Canada some time before their marriage, which took place in Montreal; and in that city I spent most of my life.

I came to America from Canada because Canada is stultifyingly boring and incredibly hypocritical.
