It's an article on how American media portrays Canada. That's a valid trope. It may not be an accurate portrayal, but it's something that they do a fair bit.
Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. DickI was talking about the real life section, not the whole article.

^ Yeah, the "how American media portrays Canada" isn't really shown in the RL section - it's more Troper Tales than anything. Lots of back-and-forth natter and examples which are just people pointing out stereotypes.
I think we could port the whole thing over without losing the gist of the page.
Considering that this trope is about how Canada is portrayed in media, it seems ingenuous to list Real Life examples unless it's in Troper Tales.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Ah, true. Part of it seems like it should be UsefulNotes.Canada. The list of Canadian people is useless though.
Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. DickThere is already a large troper tales page, so the real life section has no point at all. Can we cut it?
I second cutting RL.

It's just Americans talking about how Canada is slightly different from us. Can we just delete it and the famous Canadians section?
