I'm always backpacking but my backpack is 100% free from patches of flags of mine, or any other country. Shit looks cringeworthy.
The Republicans were rightI remember when Putin said America was a nation like any other, not exceptional and not above the law and a bunch of Republicans said that was an awful, offensive thing to say. Lol
Little flags on backpacks isn't half as embarrassing as how much Americans spam their flag
Me and the wife drover down some random road in Maine and every property had like 50 flags all over the place- and every telephone poll had a flag too - it was way over the top
A few points:
1. Nobody cares you’re from Canada.
2. You look like a twat.
3. Stop it.
Over the last few years I’ve been seeing it more and more. Do other nationalities do this?
I’m Canadian by the way. I find this shit embarrassing.

No, what countries have more freedom.What, why they hate you?
There are a thousand reasons, but let's start at what I believe is the core: You're the most powerful nation on Earth. That makes you the bad guy in the propaganda of a lot of nations.
I once banged a Dutch chick cause I was Canadian. WWll still has lingering effects.
Watching MMAHour and even Ariel Helwani is running the Canadian flag....so nobody will think he's American. lol. I'm proud of my country, but we sure have a bad reputation.
Its so they dont get mistaken for Americans and get preyed upon by localsA few points:

“They don’t people to think they’re American” thing is lame as fuck. Just tell people you’re Canadian if you chat with them.
Also, in Asia, a very small percentage of people speak English. Why would they assume someone is American and not Canadian or European?
I've lived overseas for quite a while as well, and I've seen the same thing.Lived overseas for over 10 years. Never had an issue being an American nor did I hide it or flaunt it. But in these types of conversations its always "some Europeans were mean to me because I was American." Im sure you really got experience local culture with your two week back packing trip.
Those effing Parisians...French people give everyone hell over their accents. Parisians are notorious for being dicks about this. Even to people from other parts of France. I'm relatively young but it's gotten better since I was a child.
