Chuckle. Once willing it's hard to say you've lost that luvin feelin....

I do find:

"So it is a general rule that actors and film-makers arriving in
Hollywood keep their nationality - unless, that is, they are Canadian. Thus
Mary Pickford, Walter Huston, Donald Sutherland, Michael J Fox, William
Shatner, Norman Jewison, David Cronenberg and Dan Aykroyd have in the
popular perception become American, and Christopher Plummer British. It is
as if in the very act of becoming famous, a Canadian ceases to be Canadian,
unless she is Margaret Atwood, who is as unshakeably Canadian as a moose,
or Celine Dion, for whom Canada has proved quite unable to find any
takers."

Humorous...I mean what's it all aboot ?
