^But couldn't you argue that it's not patriotism, but just that the American market is bigger, and makes it easier to succeed? Why there is Canadian Content rules in media, but not a similar thing in the US? There are very successful Canadian companies that just have a better business model, and that's why they do well...

Roots is a very good example of keeping it Canadian. Same goes for Harvey's/Swiss Chalet/Second Cup (all part of Cara). And Aldo and La Senza, which are so successful, that it's gone into numerous other countries!
