But these ballyhooed incidents are misleading because they obscure the fact that, in places where it counts, Americans are actually making a much closer study of our. country than we are of theirs. The observation' was recently made by a McGill University professor that one could find out more n New York than in Montreal about what .is happening in Canada's far north. It is also reported that several American uni-ersities have introduced courses on Canada-U.S. relations. An instructor at the University of Rochester who made a survey of the subject drew jp a typewritten list, single-spaced and 17 pages long, of doctorate theses on Canadian topics produced since 1!)47 by graduates of U.S. colleges. Even if allowance is made for Canada's smaller student body, it is doubtful that anything comparable at such a high level of learning could be found in Canada. It is not enough to suppose that because. .we know about Eisenhower, McCarthy, Hollyvood a.ad the major league baseball teams, we are well ad-uainted with the States. Unless we go a great deal leeper than that, we will continue in our superficial and often stuffy attitude towards Americans which has nothing to co with the good neighbor that we pretend to be.
