The number of articles with titles like "Why do Americans disguise themselves as Canadians when travelling abroad?" seems to disagree.
As far as "national pride" goes there is a big difference between the US vs CA.
Here (Canada) you would be hard pressed to find cCanadian flags. Really only two places fly them, government buildings (schools, offices, etc) and US big box stores (walmart?).
I lived in the US for ~6 years and this "flag" thing really stood out at first. Like i'd drive around and there would be bridges basically covered in flags. This is something you will pretty much NEVER see here.
