Because they want to feel British.

lol that does sound pretty rude.

Hehe, I've started yelling at TV news for a similar reason:

TV reporter: ...., So-an-so, thank you
So-and-so: Thank you

Me: WTF? It's "welcome" So-and-so!! Someone needs to bring things to closure!!! Daggnabit.

If a Canadian uses "Cheers" wouldn't they have to have the French equivalent next to it?

Yeah, it's cool to be forever young and forever drunk. However, I perceive alcohol as evil. I'm not kidding. I feel repulsion when I see bottles of alcohol. Not that I never drank it, it's just that I grew the brains (maybe) instead of losing them not to be that easy.
