No one has mentioned the term "Hosers."
Have we forgotten that moniker for Canadians?

It is most likely the Quebicians who are called frogs, because they would be speaking French. Frog is the derogatory name for French people, and it originated because French people ate frog legs. Hence "limey" for Englanders.

They aren't...they are called Canucks...people from the French province of Quebec , which is in Eastern Canada are sometimes called "frogs"...but they consider the term derogatory.

CAnadians are referred to as "Canucks" (although you should not use that term)
The French are "frogs" (and, again, you should not use that term)
