In some ways, this one roasts more than "Why I hate Canadians" but Ian perhaps removes some of the misanthropy, so it's a bit more cheerful. By this book I learned to just browse through the chapters that didn't immediately grab me. You can read in whatever order, any actual references between chapters are referenced.

My favourites are the discussions of the provinces and their driving styles. Bloody Canadian drivers.
