James Cameron Interview, Part 32
"As a Canadian, the American dream had a very negative and pejorative connotation when I was growing up, because it was this kind of, you know, cultural imperialism. You know, I grew up in a border town on the other side of the border in Niagara Falls, Canada. But you know, since I moved to the United States at the age of 1,7 I actually feel very much like... I'm probably in my basic genetic nature much more American than Canadian because I really believe strongly in a lot of the traditional values of this country in terms of respecting individuals' rights. The rights to freedom of speech and a lot of the things that are in the basic fabric of this country."
