>( joking, of course, and Inuit is surely the correct tribal designation for many of the population of Alaska who were there first. Not sure how many of them care, but for any who do, fair enough. Probably offensive to the Yupik, but I don't think they care either. In Alaska I think they use the term Eskimo without a pejorative connotation, though in Canada they are more sensitive about it since there is a more homogeneous native population and - well - because they are Canadians <s> )
Well, can't say I care much really. And don't let the Canadian Census Bureau hear you calling anybody a 'Canadian'.
