Of course, when my ancestors had had enough of old world divisiveness, they rejected the yankees and dixies to become canucks.

Thanks Dare, even in England word has got to us about about Yankees and Rebels - it's the Dandy Doodle bit that has me flumoxed. I thought it was only Mickey Rooney who was a New York (Yankee) Doodle Dandy :D

I never really never knew what it was either John
Yankee Doodle
Why did yankee doodle stick a feather in his hat and call it macaroni? Back in Pre-Revolutionary America when the song "Yankee Doodle" was first popular, the singer was not referring to the pasta "macaroni" in the line that reads "stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni". "Macaroni" was a fancy ("dandy") style of Italian dress widely imitated in England at the time. By sticking a feather in his cap and calling himself a "dandy," Yankee Doodle was proudly proclaiming himself to be a gentleman of some social standing.

Yankee Doodle Dandy was a song by George M. Cohan. Here's Jimmy Cagney, as Cohan, in the bio-pic Yankee Doodle Dandy.

How's it going, LoNeR? Good to hear from you.
Dixie refers to the American southeast, the Confederacy during the American Civil War of 150 years ago. The name comes from the Mason/Dixon Line, the border between the states of Pennsylvania and Maryland.
