Verbatim Via Colby File:

Marash said that there was a “reflexive adversarial editorial stance” against Americans, which he found “became so stereotypical, so reflexive” that he got angry. He was the last American-accented anchor at the network, and supposedly more Canadians than Americans work at the Washington office.
