No, I don't think so.

"As Canadian as possible under the circumstances" is kind of perfectly self aware, pragmatic, and tongue in cheek, while still being loyal enough.

Nationalism can be a useful tool, but it shouldn't be overdone.

As Canadian as the cultural progeny of a Scandanavian and an American.
