My my my. Everything is an insult to you. It must be hell inside your head.

This article is an example of shoddy journalism from that rag Maclean's but I find the attitudes embodied in it to be a example of what I mean when a "reject" international student is still a cut above your average Canadian:

The "rejects" (the ones who can't make it in the U.S. and end up in Canada) spend their time studying (or so the conventional stereotypes assume) while your average Canadian would much rather be a ski-bum. I would dismiss "Alexandra"'s distaste for "Asian schools" as a one-off if it weren't for the fact that I have actually met a number of otherwise-bright Canadians turn down offers (and scholarships) to UT and UW because they wanted a life and didn't want to study like "Asians". If you're not going to school to challenge yourself, then why bother in the first place?
