If you ever go to South America, you learn very quickly to say that you are from the "United States". If you say you are an American, they say "So are we". I stick to 4, even in Europe out of respect for my friends in the South.

I'd say I'm from Canada.
I'm from the states, but not very proud of our country's actions these days.
