I wouldn't describe it as a true "hate" though, it's more of a disdain. We (I am Canadian too) grow up watching Americans make the most ignorant comments and jokes about Canada/Canadians on television, so many Canadians have an attitude of, "Fuck you, USA, we're an awesome nation!"
So, their anti-American attitude is more of a defensive thing than a hatred thing. But, as a Canadian, I am sorry you have to endure that shit on behalf of your country. You should say to those Canadians, "Hey, I'm just an individual - don't stereotype me." They *should* back off after that.
Oh, for sure I do! I love all of my American friends; mostly the ones from IIN, but I have a few IRL too. :)
Eeep! :O
I hope my comment comes across as more of an explanation for the attitude the OP has observed and *not* something I personally feel about Americans.
Is it normal for Canadians to hate America

Yeah, I'm sorry, but it is actually very normal.
