If Apple is an American company... How come we don't see a sense of loyalty from the Americans to the level that the Canadian people have for BlackBerry?

Seems like Blackberry needs more than Canadian loyalty.

All of these companies (consumer electronics and automobiles too) are really multi-national anyway and just happen to have an HQ in one country or the other.

I was on my car listening to the radio the news was BB would eliminate thousands of employees and then i went inside the house and watch tv and it was the launching of iphone 5s im toronto i saw many ppl on the line it was the hype and everything, it was in toronto ! Can you believe that? I told my friend that maybe a parent of someone who was in the line work for BB and maybe one of these thousands employees ,i just hope not, but hey i hear that some 400 employees have found new jobs

Microsoft is an American company. People don't seem to love them all that much.

All things being equal, I believe most people support their local businesses. However we tend to look elsewhere if our needs, requirements, or desires aren't being met.

The loyalty to Apple is evident every iPhone launch with folks camping out time and time again since 2007. What other proof is needed?
