What does it mean to be Canadian?
By Angela JungSince the Vancouver 2010 Winter Games begun, Canadians have showcased an incredible amount of national pride at the events, on the streets, and have not been shy at all in welcoming others to the celebrations. I went to the streets last week to interview a few random people in front of Canada Place and asked them what they thought of the girls and guys of the True North Strong and Free, and what it means to be Canadian.
I was also impressed by some of the talents I met. A young Australian man attempted to imitate a Canadian accent with almost sheer perfection (yeah, right!) and a local Vancouverite taught me a common Newfie phrase!
In my quest to find interviewees, I even met a Canadian athlete! Who? Check it out.

And if you're roaming the streets in Downtown Vancouver, chances are you may run into me with the microphone in my hand. And who knows? Maybe you will be featured in my next segment.
