What’s the Point of U.S. Citizenship?

Jane, a 24-year-old woman who moved to America from Canada 2 years ago, emphasizes her strong sense of being a Canadian:

I definitely consider myself a Canadian citizen. I’m very proud to be a Canadian. It’s a great country and its fun to be different. (smiles) Everyone around me is American, but I’m a Canadian. I just happen to live here. I don’t associate myself as an American.
