What you fail to realise is that outside the continent of America, too many people have no idea that the maple leaf is the symbol of Canada. You need a teeshirt with big bright dayglow letters on it saying "I am a Canadian".
Or you could use the method that a Canadian who was my boss many years ago used. If anyone assumed he was from the USA, he hit them.

You'd be surprised. People would treat me very differently both in business and on the street. No one wants to mug a Canadian or kiss his ass.
