Summary: Interview with Tania Huntsman I heard a listening comprehension of an interview with Tania Huntsman who tells about the Canadian sense of cultural identity and the difference between America (the United States) and Canada. Tania Huntsman is a Canadian living in Britain. She tells the interviewer that when she was backpacking threw Europe she used to get upset when she was mistaken for an American. Tania is a proud Canadian and tells the interviewer the differences between Canadians and Americans. A typical American in her eyes is loud, aggressive, seems dumb and doesn’t really know much about the rest of the world. Canadians oppositional are informed and have an understanding of the word. Nowadays it doesn’t brothers her any more if people think she is American. Another big difference is that America is referred as a "melting pot" and Canada as a "mosaic" if you look on the cultural identity of the commoner. In the United States all individual identities get smashed together and a pulp comes out in which everyone lost its identity. Canada is referred as a mosaic or a puzzle because they have allot of people with different origins, cultures, languages, … who all fit together but stay individual. Tania says that Canada is a commonwealth of Great Britain and so the English part of Canada still feels connected with GB and their values as for example the queen. The French section of Canada like Quebec doesn’t have or like this connection and wants to be separated from GB. All in all Tania says that Canada is a great country with lots of different great people. Canadians are proud of what they are and especially where they come from.
