The use of "Canuck" parallels that of some other potentially offensive nicknames, that is, when used by the people it names -- Canadians in this case -- it is usually acceptable. But when used by an outsider -- in this case particularly American strangers -- it can be easily misinterpreted and deemed as insulting one's heritage. Although it is not as severe as most ethnic slurs, some consider it one.

Not 1835 anymore... it refers to Canadian. Nothing to do with French Canadians in this day and age.
