Please don't use abusive terms like this about our Leader
I don't consider it abusive and I'm not sure how anyone could (especially as my home town hockey team are called the Vancouver Canucks) but you do need to spell it correctly BtG!
"Canadians use "Canuck" as an affectionate description of nationality and the word carries no particular patriotic overtones. A few Americans misinterpret "Canuck" as an offensive noun but would be hard pressed to find a Canadian, French or English, insulted by the word - the opposite being most likely. It is similar in use to "Yankee" for an American."
Wiki Canuck Anyway, I'm a mongrel - a little bit Irish, English and Canadian (and that is what I know about!)
