I felt that the second essay Hollywood vs Canada was more insightful because it provides factual

evidence instead of personal opinions and anecdotes. On paragraph 9 of Hollywood vs Canada, it states
that 63 percent of Americans passed a test on history versus only 39 percent of Canadians. This coupled
by Margaret Atwood’s unprofessional and disrespectful personal opinions based off stereotypes make
the second essay more insightful. Elizabeth Renzetti also has clear examples of interactions with
Americans that would support the idea that they are generally amicable while Margaret Atwood seems
to have limited experience with Americans while at the same time stating on paragraph 7 all Americans,
she has personally met have been friendly. Although she claims that she only met nice ones, she
provides no proof or reasoning on what could cause this.

The authors use of Cesspool suggests that the author Margaret Atwood has a low opinion of American’s
ability to make use of land.

The significance of the authors use of the phrase "sometimes they say they are the Mounties while
Canadians are Rose Marie can be interpreted as American’s viewing themselves as authority figures
while Rose Marie is an actor known for being smart.

The significance of the authors use of Mr. Magoo eyes can be interpreted as a comparison of American
behavior to a cartoon character who encounters issues due to his short sightedness.

The phrase out or about could be interpreted as the author saying something offensive.

That he was a good mediator and was recognized as part of the peacekeeping process.

Nanosecond is a fraction of a second and could mean that people accuse people fast without much
thought.
