Akibun-

 

I have to defer to the Canadians on the board, but I identify as an American (I am from the USA). You can't really say USAer...USAjin... Do any Canadians consider themseleves Americans? Both citizens of the USA and Canada (and Mexico) can say they are "North Americans," but I think citizens of the USA have sort of claimed "American" as their own moniker.

 

As for "Yank" or "Yankee," it doesn't bother me at all. It is traditionally reserved for people form the North East part of the USA though.
