USA vs French Canada

The following concerns only certain americans, let's not generalize. 

There is something that's been annoying me for quite a while. Here in Munich, there are a lot of Americans, and let me tell you that most of them have been living up to their reputation. They wonder why the world doesn't like them, but they don't do a lot to be loved.
There is something that I wasnt aware of at all: Americans don't like French Canadians!!?!? I have been insulted here by a couple of them because I am a french Canadian. One even asked me: 'Why do you guys speak french? Why don't you just speak english like everybody else?'
Is this guy for real??? Ok I'm sorry mister if I can speak 3 languages, and you just 1!!!! I get this kind of comment quite often.
I just needed to share that with you guys. I feel much better now. Les américains sont tellement tatas. Par contre, pas tous, j'en ai quand même trouvé quelques uns de décents.
And I have another question: Do english Canadians have a really different accent from Americans? Personally, I can't really tell the difference.
