British could encompass English, Scottish or Welsh. A Welshman or Scotsman would never want to be mistaken for an Englishman. Chances are it would only be an Englishman who would refer to himself as British. I am a British citizen with a British passport, but as my family is from England, I would call myself English. The assumption when one says British is that the person concerned is English, but this is not often used in the United Kingdom. You are from England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland, and would call yourself English, Scottish, Welsh or … well, the last one depends.

New Zealand is basically unknown by the Canadian populace in general. Those with some knowledge think of it as an outdoorsy place with lots of sports and physical pursuits. Maoris and rugby are sometimes mentioned, but not often. Those in my profession may know there is a teaching shortage, there are Canadians teaching in NZ, and that the ‘Reading Recovery’ educational program is from New Zealand. Your relationship to Australia is probably similar to our relationship with Americans. There is a competitiveness, and a strange friendliness / animosity, with both feeling superior to the other. Knowledge about NZ is very limited. What do those in NZ think about Canada?
