Grocery shopping

“Are you American?” asked the fellow behind me in the supermarket checkout line after we had been chatting for a few minutes.
“Oh no!” replied the cashier.  “She’s Canadian.”
“I am Canadian,” I confirmed at the same time, and then asked him in turn, “Are you from New Zealand?”
The cashier bubbled over with laughter as she nodded her head.  She got it, but the fellow remained puzzled as he explained that no, he was an Aussie.
