Is there anything that would get Canadians burning embassies

We're a pretty apathetic lot but can you think of any issue or insult that would get mobs of toqued up Canadians attacking consulates and burning homemade badly drawn flags?

Vancouver had a pretty good riot when the Canucks lost to the Rangers in the 94 Stanley Cup finals.

Drunken mobs (eg, after a hockey game) would be the only scenario I could see that happening, and likely not intentionally directed towards the embassy specifically.

Canadian Bacon was based on a true story.

I would say that if a country commited an act of war on canada, and they had an embassy there. It would probably get burned down.

The USA winning Olympic Gold in 2010...heck, maybe even 2006

As tricks said, and even there i wouldn't think so because normally diplomats are withdrawn before war to avoid this kind of stuff.

Québec Seperating, declaring a UDI after refusal from the feds to negotiate... Troops are sent in. At that point, I'd be looking for a gun, and aiming at at anything with a mapleleaf on it.
