That does sound plausible, I just thought there was perhaps something deeper beneath it.

Maybe because Canadians are just milquetoast Americans without handguns? 
Actually, South Park is about the only program I know that makes fun of Canadians. And then it works because few others have bothered to do such a thing. What makes it funny in South Park is that Canadians generally don't give us a whole lot to make fun of.
Most jokes involving Canada or Canadians here involve them being like odd cousins who live in suburban Buffalo, NY. (Though Vinman might dispute. )

It is. The joke is that Canadians are pretty close to a mirror image of Americans in a number of ways, so we have to resort to making fun of them for silly things like fur hats, Canadian bacon, and donuts. John Candy was in how many movies about fictitious wars between U.S. and Canada?
The humor is in the lack of animosity, really. It's as if Del Piero teased Marcello Lippi for being a Tuscan.
Contrast this with, say, Mexico - which is fraught with racial stereotypes, language barriers, immigration freak-outs (none of the anti-immigrant rhetoric here even thinks of Canadians as a menace to society), etc.

That's not gonna work, people don't even know where the countries are
Another example from last Sunday's episode: in the background you can hear a speech by JFK at the time. It was broadcast on all TV networks simultaneously in 1963. Which, interestingly enough, was the customer demand of one of the prospective advertising clients earlier in the program.
Those kind of subtleties in the show are never accidental. Which is one of the main reasons I really like it.
So there is a chance that the Norway-vs-Sweden thing wasn't just slapped in there without much thought...
They did sometihng similar here where an irish girl returned home with an english fiance whos grandfather was a black and tan ( think the Waffen SS mixed with the Huns) when the village found out he got some beating, anywho they had the differences were quite subtle too, but that basically because we're the same, except the irish never sought dominion over any man 
Exactly. It's basically the same thing as Martin saying "we girls", even though he has a penis, or at least claims to.
That's absolutely no excuse. Poland isn't a nation that sucks in football like a North Korea or something of the sort. They make many competitions and have had several great players, suck as Boniek.
Just another cop-out in the quest of gloryhunting.

Pretty much what we're all doing here on the forum. Except I don't think you need an excuse to enjoy something or that you have to be eligible to enjoy it legitimately. These are juvenile games that kids play to determine who will and will not belong to their very special club. "Gloryhunter" is the instrument of the saddest bunch of amateur elitist wannabees.
0-3 to Slovenia, incidentally.

I'm not a French citizen and you're not a citizen of Torino. And yet you chose arbitrarily to enjoy their achievements. Just like I chose to enjoy the achievements of various teams geographically distant.
Notice that there are quite a few people who think just the way you do, but on club level. And they would be the first to denounce you in the exact same terms you're denouncing me. I wonder if they would say "why don't we just abolish club football altogether then".
