Americans see Canada as like the little brother who follows them around. Canadians see America as the embarrassing friend in public who you stay close to incase they do something really stupid. Both are more or less right is different situations.
If America did something stupid they wouldn’t need help from Canada lmfao. Canada is weak as fuck. The US could take over the entire country by sending an organized Militia from any given state 😵👍🏻
Bald eagles almost went extinct due to hunting and deforestation in the US so Canada sent them a ridiculous amount. Most eagles in the US are actually Canadian.
English Canadians and Americans might be similar, but if you visit Québec and really take the time to talk to the francophones, you'll probably notice many cultural differences. According to anthropologists, Quebecers are in between English Canadians and French from France.
@@wendigo53 It's not exactly it, but I get your point. For instance, the Filles du Roy were sent in Nouvelle France to get married and make babies, as there were mostly men at that time there and not enough women. Those women were poor and vulnerable, that's why they accepted to leave their country, hoping for a better life.

As a Canadian who also went to college in the United States most of this is true. Except I dont think Canadians hate Americans they hate American corporate bought politician's, American military industrial complex and to a lesser to degree American News media. But the average american is a good person to me and I have nothing but love for the vast majority of American people. I also find Americans just as nice as Canadians

Form My Experiences in Canada Canadians love America the Country and the American People but they don’t like our foreign Policy our Politicians and our Healthcare System of course.
Me and my husband recently came back from a trip to Canada. It was our first time up there. We really enjoyed it, sans a scary experience our first night lol But coming from Minnesota, to Manitoba, here are the main differences we saw... 🍁 Much of the highway shoulders are gravel. 🍁 Most signs are bilingual, English and French 🍁 There was a stronger Native population. Minneapolis has a considerable Native population as well but it seemed more prevalent in Winnipeg 🍁 Winnipeg felt like a mix of Minneapolis, Omaha and Oklahoma City. The residential areas looked like Minneapolis but less lush. The same type of housing stock typical in northern US. But it had a stronger prairie vibe like Omaha. And the Native influence made it seem like Oklahoma City. It was still very Canadian though. 🍁 A lot more local businesses and less chains. 🍁 Canadians seemed to love their flag even more or as much as Americans. 🍁 Even though we were relatively south for Canada, there was a lot of references to the Arctic which I thought was really cool. 🍁 Geographically, it resembled North Dakota a lot. Lots of flat fields. I know Manitoba is known for its lakes but they are further north. I did see Lake Winnipeg which is pretty cool. 🍁 McDonald's is more expensive but looks cleaner and nicer 🍁 A lot of attractions were very affordable 🍁 Canadian parents seem to treat their kids less like babies. Canadian kids seemed less bratty, more well behaved 🍁 The accent is definitely there lol. It sounds similar to Minnesota but it stands out in words like "soorry" and "aboot." 🍁 Few black and Hispanic people but lots of Asians, especially Chinese and Indian. A lot of benches and signs were in Chinese. 🍁 Lotta Ukrainian diasporans 🍁 One way signs were just blank arrows Overall it was a fun place to visit. Def wanna see the other provinces.
Great observations! I've been to Toronto and Montréal. Indeed, they have bi-lingual road signs! (FRE/ENG). In Montréal, they greet you in Fre., if they sense that you don't speak Fre., they switch to Eng.
As a person from Toronto suburbs, I can say that most is true except the accent just doesn't seem there, I can't say for sure for I've never noticed a difference but overall, I'd say the ones about the flag and children are true however I think Quebec and Ontario give different vibes.
@@DilettanteThat that’s also true. I think it depends on the scenario, if someone in a car asks you how far somewhere is, most would say “it’s about 2 miles north”. If walking you might hear “it’s about 5 minutes north” or just say “it’s two blocks north”
@@DilettanteThat I don’t know, in my part of America it’s like, “How far is the Supermarket?” “Oh, it’s like five minutes if you use the highway, but there’s also it’s rush hour so you might get stuck in traffic.” “Okay, thanks.”
As a Canadian, I find myself using all three terms: washroom, bathroom and restroom. I use washroom and bathroom synonymously but generally I say bathroom when I'm at home and washroom when i'm at school or out and about. I use restroom not as often but whenever I am in a somewhat fancy situation I will say restroom.
As an American living in my beautiful state of Alaska, we love our neighbors the Canadians. We here in Alaska pride ourselves as being great friends with Canadians in fact we have a lot more in common than the rest of the ‘lower 48’ as we refer to the continental US. We know what beaver tails are and have even adopted that as ours in some of our state fairs/bazaars but they got renamed elephant ears lol. We just love Canada!
Most states that border Canada (or at least most of the cities near the actual border with Canada in those states) have this kind of relationship with Canada
As a Canadian I can say most Canadians see people from Alaska more so as Canadians than they do Americans as well. Alaska is so similar to Canada especially if put in contrast with the rest of the US.
Haha yeah made that exact fopar in 1991 when I was in Japan and I meet a Canadian, to Aussies it's hard to tell the difference, I don't know if you have the same problem with Aussie and Kiwi accents?
Living in southern Ontario is crazy because you end up having a mix of Canadian and American things coexisting. Many of us grew up watching American TV and radio so things like using Fahrenheit and Celsius interchangeably happen.
@@zackprice8688 unless you were still in school when they converted from imperial to metric. That was grade 11 for me. I convert automatically whether I'm in the states or Canada. It's ingrained.
My girlfriend is Canadian and I love visiting her and plan to eventually move over there. I have noticed that the smaller population does affect how many people you can find in the country you can relate to in terms of hobbies, interests, or other groups. Otherwise, Canada is just as great as the USA!
Make sure you bring plenty of thick clothing. Even the nicest Canadian girl ain't gonna keep you warm enough up here eh! We generally welcome Americans of all varieties up here, but if you happen to be one of the really rich ones, welcome home! :) hehehehe
Some fun facts is that Detroit is actually north of Canada specifically Windsor, Ontario and the Detroit River separates the two cities so typically around the US Independence Day or Canada Day there is a large fireworks display on the river celebrating the two holidays of the two countries.
Yep I’m from Windsor and Detroit is south of us , funny thing where Windsor is located in the Great Lakes region we are more south then about 10-15 states .... most southern city in Canada 🇨🇦 also got a great relationship with people in Michigan& plenty of family that way !!
I'm a Canadian and I traveled to Florida when I was younger and I was shocked when someone asked me If I lived in an igloo. I thought it was a joke but they were completely serious!

I'm disappointed no one it the world knows who we are or just assumes we are the same as the US! XD
I remember one time I brought ketchup chips to American and everyone was confused, I even had one person come up to me and ask if he could have one. That’s when I learned they don’t have them in America
I remember going into Massena and Syracuse to do school shopping ( that one time the CAD was doing better than USD) and on our way back we were stuck in a long line at the border. My siblings and I were going up and down the line of cars peeking in at the people inside, It was the last week of August Probably about +35-+40 celicius (hella hot) and We came upon this guy who was sealed up in his station wagon, windows rolled, AC on wearing a PARKA with SKIS on his roof rack.... Seriously SKIS ON HIS ROOF RACK. Later in life while watching Die Hard 3 I was reminded of this experience when McLaine and his buddy Sammy J the taxi driver Chased the criminals to the Canadian Border where it suddenly went from Sweltering Heat in NY to a Blizzard in Quebec..... IN THE SAME DAY!!! So I guess we could hold Hollywood to account for part of it??
Someone once said that Toronto was like New York but run by the Swiss (i.e. ultra tidy and clean). I wouldn't know if this is true having never visited.
@@nevillemason6791 well as someone who has been to both Toronto and NYC it is true Toronto is a cleaner and more harmonious NYC with its big electronic billboards in the downtown sectors and Old Toronto being like a smaller Manhattan with their downtown sectors but has the population of Chicago (been to Chicago too but Toronto is also less dense than Chicago and NYC due to Toronto’s land size) but Toronto’s variety levels of attractions compare to Chicago more than NYC (NYC’s variety of attractions compare more to London tbh)
I'm Canadian (full disclosure), but your video is amazingly well researched and I would say generally bang on. In my experience, having travelled both countries extensively, would be that in Canada we're a bit more welcoming of newcomerers from other countries.

No doubt Canadians can def put USAins through the paces at drinking..... but the question now is does “partying” = “drinking” or does it take other factors into play. If so the US parties harder, we have Florida.
One thing I’ve always found interesting about Canada is that most of us use a Mix of the metric and imperial system depending which system makes a specific measurement easier. For example most people, if not all, (where I’m from in Ontario) use them like this: Height of a person: imperial Measurement over a long distance: Metric Measuring small amounts of food or ingredients: Grams Drinks: metric Weight of a person: imperial And so on Officially we strictly use the metric system, but ask most Canadians what they weigh in Kg’s or how tall they are in Cm’s and they will give you this look 👁💋👁
Dude sometimes we'll use both in the same sentence. I just drove 50 kilometers in a foot and a half of snow for 3 pints of beer, a pound of chicken wings, and a 1.75L bottle of whiskey, but I only drink the whiskey an ounce at a time.
It’s mainly because the metric system is a horrible scale for the size of people. For example for height someone who is 6ft or so could be 180 cm or 1.8 meters, while feet stay at a happier medium. Not sure why we use pounds, but they are fine as well. On the other hand for small things and in science, metric is used because it’s way easier to convert between mm, cm, m, and km

The UK is NO "parent" of the United States. Maybe Canada since they still acknowledge the queen as their ceremonial head of state. But the United States does NOT.
American tourist "Canada is pretty similar to the US, you know same culture, same language." Travels to Québec : "Wtf is going on here? I didn't know you could drive to France."
@@mateoberkhout4111 Yeah, I know about Saint-Pierre et Miquelon. But you can't really drive there, I don't know if you can even bring a car there. Newfoundland is not bilingual, at all.

Absolutely love your work. I'm a west coast Canadian who grew up on Vancouver Island. The world here is so completely different than most other places in North America. BC has deserts and rainforests. Canada is often forgotten about in history. The raid of Dieppe and Vimy Ridge are big moments tied to Canadians being part of pivotal moments in history.
I was really surprised by this west coast climate as a teenager. We left montreal it was RIDICULOUSLY cold that week (around -30 wich is NOT, I repeat NOT easy to cope with). I then proceed to arrived in a 8 degrees Vancouver with no snow to be found and it was mid january... it blew my mind :)
It's a very sibling like relationship it seems to me between the two with America being the elder kid. America truly loves Canada more. Heck, most Americans absolutely adore Canadians. Canada pretends to dislike America, but in reality would be heartbroken if it should ever die.
Anahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha when I read that last part I don’t actually know if your serious or not, but if you are, every person I know hates America, the only thing you guys are good for is comedy/news
@@SupaSillyThyme Mhmm. You hate America so much that you love to trash talk it on an American platform, using a device that's also powered by electricity. Something America also created. I bet some of your favorite movies and tv shows are also American made. Tell me what Canada did that makes it so amazing? Oh that's right, NOTHING!! So all you (and many other bitter Countries like you) can do is consistently throw salt at a Country that actually has made a huge impact around the world. They ain't lying. Jealousy IS a bitch.
Canada’s use of the imperial and metric system can be summed up by us using imperial measurements when it comes to personal things ie height and weight and use metric for something that isn’t personal ie distance or speed limit. Also we originally had thanksgiving at the same time as the USA but we changed it to the second Monday of November (I could be wrong about that part) before completely changing it to the second Monday of October due to us (the government) not wanting anything else major in the same month as Remembrance Day (Canada’s Memorial Day). And fun fact we also have the largest natural land border between two countries.
Canadians use the imperial system because of trade, and trades like plumbing and electrical. When we purchase steel, wool, and cloth we use imperial. We purchase almost everything from the US. Including things that are manufactured in China. When we purchase something from either the US or China it uses Americans systems such as NEMA. However when we order from Europe or are doing something for a European company, it will use a system such as IEC. I worked for a steel company (am now an electrician) and we would get so many orders from the US that we just used the imperial system for everyone and everything.
Canada is our little sister and just like human siblings, there is a little rivalry there and some teasing. But in the end, when push comes to shove, we have each other's backs.
Very little differences really. I’ve always loved Canada and its people. Traveled across the lower two western provinces and was impressed with the unspoiled beauty and cleanliness. Way to go Canada. My father was born in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada. Would love to see it sometime.
I live in Sherbrooke, born and raised here. It's kinda a nice place to live ngl, really chill and not that much happening. And the area around are fucking incredible, Orford, Magog, all incredible place. Pretty sure you will love it.
Compare Brazil and Argentina? Two completely different countries, different languages, different colonizers, different sizes, everything else is different too. I think the only similarities between Brazil and Argentina is that both like football and barbecue. Trust me, you can hardly find another similarity between those two.
I need Canadian friends!! That sounds awesome. I wasn't aware how similiar we are. Awesome video, it was completely entertaining and informative. Like watching a good movie, you're so entangled in the story and the rollout you lose track of time and all of the sudden you're saying goodbye. Keep it up! I'm off to the 1812 video. (since you reminded me at the end =) )
@@Random_UserName4269 they are talking about the country that basically created them, not ancestries, most americans are german in ancestry or even african american but the UK is the country that basically started everything,
That because it's not quite true and mostly did not affect people. The relationship with the Monarch remained the same. The Westminster Status of 1931 did that. Canada declared war on Germany on its own in 1939, probably the highest level of independence one can have, and was independent from even the Privy Council. The main thing the 1982 Patriation did was to allow Canada to modify its own Constitution without the approval (mostly, the rubber stamping) of the British Parliament, since the latter "waited" for an agreement to emerge from all of Canada; signature is still dependent on the Queen of Canada at Buckingham Palace (and Québec has never signed). That was in fact the main concern in the UK in 1981-1982, the approval of the provinces.
@@Cancionera40 I mean its common knowledge, there were two referendums, and has since accepted it in law. (no they did not ratify it, they just accept it). The province got over it. You should as well. Man Rick Mercer had a great bit on this in the 90s, something about letting Quebec leave, join em, and have a referendum to turn the name back to Canada. Some classic comedy. Sovereignty crisis is over bud...you guys won, with lots of concessions from the rest of Canada.
@@wendigo53 its not wrong, UK may have given us freedom of autonomy with the Westminster Statute in the 30's but we never reclaimed our Bill of Rights and Constitution (now Charter of Rights and Freedoms) until 1982 and the British House of Lords was still able to make changes if they desired until that then (they didn't make changes, but had authority to do so).
I learned so many things about the US and I find it funny how not many Canadians adore America, as Americans love Canada. Also, Americans call pencil crayons coloured pencils?! Also, I think you should've added how Canadians spell some words (like colour) with an "ou" and Americans spell them with an "o". Also about the Zee and Zed thing.
I think a lot of people like Canada because its always seen as a country to espire to. Its no coincidence that Canada has been the country many Americans turn to for refuge or medical care. I always hear Amercians overstate how good our medical system is.
Canada was far more british for most of its existence. I remember singing “God save the Queen” every morning while saluting the then-new maple leaf flag in one corner with a Union Jack in the other….
You are half way to being correct in saying that not many Canadians adore America. Unfortunately the harsh truth is that Canadians universally despise the U.S and make it their convenient target of criticism at every single opportunity. Nobody has the courage to speak out against rogue regimes so instead we practice the worst of hypocrisy by continuously and vigorously attacking our neighbour, largest trading partner and ultimately our protector all the while taking part in your culture, commerce, entertainment and vacation spots. THAT is the true Canadian way.
14:33 one extra thing to note: the US doesn't have an official language at the national level, but most states have English as their official language, and some states and territories have their own other official languages as well (Hawaii's official languages are English and Hawaiian, South Dakota's official languages are English and Sioux, etc.).

I am an American and can name all of the Canadian Provinces. I haved loved hearing what Mr. Trudeau has said especially during the pandemic and the Trump years. I watch Murdock mysteries, and know the words to your national anthem. I also root for Canadian athletes in the Olympics, and was happy when the Raptors won the NBA. Like many Americans I say, "Oh Canada we stand on guard for thee."
Oh ya, OH YA? I don't know the words to the 🍁national anthem. I knew it in primary school, but they keep changing the words and I can't be bothered keeping up.
Exactly, and it also applies across borders. New England for example, has much more in common with the Maritime provinces in Canada than it does with say, Louisiana. Or another example would be British Columbia being much more similar to Washington and Oregon, than say Quebec.
Best question in this thread and you hit the nail on the head. One thing I've noticed about many Americans is when they think of Canadians, they tend to think of Torontonians. They often don't realize Canada is not just Toronto. I've watched youtube videos of Americans visiting Toronto and they'll say things like "We went up the CN tower and the view of the Canada skyline was incredible"...lol. They just don't realize that's the equivalent of saying "We went up the Empire State building and the view of the American skyline is beautiful"...lol.
I'm a Canadian and I can say that this is totally accurate. Love the USA and the American people. Canadians who crap on the US and call it a third world country drive me nuts. Couldn't be farther from the truth. Having spent a lot of time in both I can say our countries and cultures are 99% similar.
Amen a canadian who don't try to hide the fact that they are very much the same like americans cause a lot try to say that they are different but come on we all know that you guys are really like americans whether you like it or not just because you got a place that speak french with an american accent or the way american people soynd when they try to speak french does not mean that you guys are that different, you guys are right next to each other canada speak english and it own so called French while America has no official langiages but the most used are Ebglish and spanish, some german and etc meaning that america is a multi lingual country it very diverse in languages everyone speak there own languages like if you go to state like Miami in america you will hear spanish the most because...... Miami is the south america of America so a lot of latino live there most people there speak spanish than english but you will still hear english
Rather a lot in this video is true but a lot is also wrong. Yes, we are similar to the US but we aren't 99% there are many differences but there are many similarities between America and Canada. Its more like 75%-80% similar
@@gregpost3320 Agreed! It's getting worse in Canada,but it still pales in comparison to the shooting spree that occurs practically on a daily basis somewhere in the U.S. It would be interesting to know when the last day was that there wasn't someone killed by a gun in the United States. The early part of the last century probably wouldn't be a bad guess.

I've always been fascinated how us Canadians do measurements, it's such a hodge-podge of metric and imperial. Distances/lengths: 1) Shorter distances we use mostly inches and feet, but prefer meters and kilometers to yards and miles. 2) Longer distances are either in "time" or KMs, and rarely miles, but "miles per gallon" is still a common measurement for vehicles. 3) Dimensions for buildings are universally in sqft, never in metric. Same with most things relating to construction, but many Canadians own 2 sets of tools like wrenches, one set in each system. 4) Heights are in ft/in, but all our documentation has cm. 5) Clothing and shoes are all in the American sizing system. Weight/volume: 1) Things relating to cooking are mostly in imperial, but most people have no reference what an "ounce" is and prefer grams for smaller measurements. 2) Personal weight is in lbs, but again documentation is in kilograms. 3) Weights for most food are in lbs, but liquids are in liters. Like you would go to the store to grab 5 lbs of potatoes and 4 liters of milk, but never 2KG of potatoes and a gallon of milk (I've heard a few older Canadians use gallons, but it is pretty rare). Temperature 1) Always in Celsius except for cooking. I would have only a vague idea of what 75F outside would feel like, but I also wouldn't know what temperature to cook my chicken at in Celsius.
I did not know that. I saw the "km" speed limit signs in Ontario and heard the weather reports from Canadian radio and assumed ya'll had fully converted.
funny I grew up in a house with imperial temperature INSIDE in Canada, same for the pool temperature. We then moved to a new house with metric temperature inside and it was much easier to predict since I knew my metric for outside temperature. But we simply cannot fully convert as long as the US doesnt, since we use the same construction wares and shit.

Mexico and Canada are as different as winter to summer. The US and Canada are so much alike, I do think Canadians are timid. They (Canadians) are starting to stand up and speak up but as time is going on it is dividing.

Most Canadians hate The USA . It’s actually sad tbh
Me and my husband recently came back from a trip to Canada. It was our first time up there. We really enjoyed it, sans a scary experience our first night lol But coming from Minnesota, to Manitoba, here are the main differences we saw...
🍁 Much of the highway shoulders are gravel.
🍁 Most signs are bilingual, English and French
🍁 There was a stronger Native population. Minneapolis has a considerable Native population as well but it seemed more prevalent in Winnipeg
🍁 Winnipeg felt like a mix of Minneapolis, Omaha and Oklahoma City. The residential areas looked like Minneapolis but less lush. The same type of housing stock typical in northern US. But it had a stronger prairie vibe like Omaha. And the Native influence made it seem like Oklahoma City. It was still very Canadian though.
🍁 A lot more local businesses and less chains.
🍁 Canadians seemed to love their flag even more or as much as Americans.
🍁 Even though we were relatively south for Canada, there was a lot of references to the Arctic which I thought was really cool.
🍁 Geographically, it resembled North Dakota a lot. Lots of flat fields. I know Manitoba is known for its lakes but they are further north. I did see Lake Winnipeg which is pretty cool.
🍁 McDonald's is more expensive but looks cleaner and nicer
🍁 A lot of attractions were very affordable
🍁 Canadian parents seem to treat their kids less like babies. Canadian kids seemed less bratty, more well behaved
🍁 The accent is definitely there lol. It sounds similar to Minnesota but it stands out in words like "soorry" and "aboot."
🍁 Few black and Hispanic people but lots of Asians, especially Chinese and Indian. A lot of benches and signs were in Chinese.
🍁 Lotta Ukrainian diasporans
🍁 One way signs were just blank arrows
Overall it was a fun place to visit. Def wanna see the other provinces.
Lots of Canadian kids are bratty
Great observations!
I've been to Toronto and Montréal.
Indeed, they have bi-lingual road signs! (FRE/ENG).
In Montréal, they greet you in Fre., if they sense that you don't speak Fre., they switch to Eng.

As a Canadian we also sometimes use time to measure stuff (i.e; “the store is five minutes north”)
we do too in america lol
Idk why this sounds cursed to me
@@Zodchi perhaps, I've noticed that like if you ask how far somewhere is Americans USUALLY seem to say it in miles rather then time.
@@DilettanteThat that’s also true. I think it depends on the scenario, if someone in a car asks you how far somewhere is, most would say “it’s about 2 miles north”. If walking you might hear “it’s about 5 minutes north” or just say “it’s two blocks north”
@@DilettanteThat I don’t know, in my part of America it’s like, “How far is the Supermarket?” “Oh, it’s like five minutes if you use the highway, but there’s also it’s rush hour so you might get stuck in traffic.” “Okay, thanks.”

As a Canadian, I find myself using all three terms: washroom, bathroom and restroom. I use washroom and bathroom synonymously but generally I say bathroom when I'm at home and washroom when i'm at school or out and about.

@@Countrybananas haven’t been my self but I’ve heard of it. Every college town in the US houses some form of it though.
One thing I’ve always found interesting about Canada is that most of us use a Mix of the metric and imperial system depending which system makes a specific measurement easier.
For example most people, if not all, (where I’m from in Ontario) use them like this:
Height of a person: imperial
Measurement over a long distance: Metric
Measuring small amounts of food or ingredients: Grams
Drinks: metric
Weight of a person: imperial
And so on
Officially we strictly use the metric system, but ask most Canadians what they weigh in Kg’s or how tall they are in Cm’s and they will give you this look
👁💋👁
Dude sometimes we'll use both in the same sentence. I just drove 50 kilometers in a foot and a half of snow for 3 pints of beer, a pound of chicken wings, and a 1.75L bottle of whiskey, but I only drink the whiskey an ounce at a time.
It’s mainly because the metric system is a horrible scale for the size of people. For example for height someone who is 6ft or so could be 180 cm or 1.8 meters, while feet stay at a happier medium. Not sure why we use pounds, but they are fine as well. On the other hand for small things and in science, metric is used because it’s way easier to convert between mm, cm, m, and km

Canada’s use of the imperial and metric system can be summed up by us using imperial measurements when it comes to personal things ie height and weight and use metric for something that isn’t personal ie distance or speed limit. Also we originally had thanksgiving at the same time as the USA but we changed it to the second Monday of November (I could be wrong about that part) before completely changing it to the second Monday of October due to us (the government) not wanting anything else major in the same month as Remembrance Day (Canada’s Memorial Day). And fun fact we also have the largest natural land border between two countries.
We got suckered into the metric system by the Americans.They backed out after we committed to it. It was too expensive for them to change.
Canadians use the imperial system because of trade, and trades like plumbing and electrical. When we purchase steel, wool, and cloth we use imperial. We purchase almost everything from the US. Including things that are manufactured in China. When we purchase something from either the US or China it uses Americans systems such as NEMA. However when we order from Europe or are doing something for a European company, it will use a system such as IEC. I worked for a steel company (am now an electrician) and we would get so many orders from the US that we just used the imperial system for everyone and everything.
Canada is our little sister and just like human siblings, there is a little rivalry there and some teasing. But in the end, when push comes to shove, we have each other's backs.
That's a good way to sum it up.
Yeah, the best way to explain them.

Compare Brazil and Argentina? Two completely different countries, different languages, different colonizers, different sizes, everything else is different too. I think the only similarities between Brazil and Argentina is that both like football and barbecue. Trust me, you can hardly find another similarity between those two.
Wow I'm surprised someone recommended Missouri vs. Kansas. He already did Kansas and Nebraska but Kansas' real enemy is Missouri and vice versa.

Greetings from a Canadian living in the UK! I couldn't resist the pull of the motherland.
I thought you were living in it.
Hi Julian. Where in the UK are you? I lived in Peterborough for 2 years.
I am the opposite, I emigrated to Canada in 1969 as a child and have been in Canada ever since!
Many Americans and Canadians true motherland is the emerald Isle. tbh
@@Random_UserName4269 they are talking about the country that basically created them, not ancestries, most americans are german in ancestry or even african american but the UK is the country that basically started everything,
Dude, most Canadians don't know we became an independent Country until 1982.
I am so glad you put that in.
That because it's not quite true and mostly did not affect people. The relationship with the Monarch remained the same. The Westminster Status of 1931 did that. Canada declared war on Germany on its own in 1939, probably the highest level of independence one can have, and was independent from even the Privy Council.
The main thing the 1982 Patriation did was to allow Canada to modify its own Constitution without the approval (mostly, the rubber stamping) of the British Parliament, since the latter "waited" for an agreement to emerge from all of Canada; signature is still dependent on the Queen of Canada at Buckingham Palace (and Québec has never signed). That was in fact the main concern in the UK in 1981-1982, the approval of the provinces.
nah cap bruh
@@Cancionera40 I mean its common knowledge, there were two referendums, and has since accepted it in law. (no they did not ratify it, they just accept it). The province got over it. You should as well.

Sovereignty crisis is over bud...you guys won, with lots of concessions from the rest of Canada.

@@wendigo53 its not wrong, UK may have given us freedom of autonomy with the Westminster Statute in the 30's but we never reclaimed our Bill of Rights and Constitution (now Charter of Rights and Freedoms) until 1982 and the British House of Lords was still able to make changes if they desired until that then (they didn't make changes, but had authority to do so).
I learned so many things about the US and I find it funny how not many Canadians adore America, as Americans love Canada. Also, Americans call pencil crayons coloured pencils?! Also, I think you should've added how Canadians spell some words (like colour) with an "ou" and Americans spell them with an "o". Also about the Zee and Zed thing.
I think a lot of people like Canada because its always seen as a country to espire to. Its no coincidence that Canada has been the country many Americans turn to for refuge or medical care. I always hear Amercians overstate how good our medical system is.
Americans don't have "Coloured pencils" they have "colored pencils"
As a Canuck I've kinda always used Zee and Zed interchangeably. Dunno why.
Canada was far more british for most of its existence. I remember singing “God save the Queen” every morning while saluting the then-new maple leaf flag in one corner with a Union Jack in the other….
You are half way to being correct in saying that not many Canadians adore America. Unfortunately the harsh truth is that Canadians universally despise the U.S and make it their convenient target of criticism at every single opportunity. Nobody has the courage to speak out against rogue regimes so instead we practice the worst of hypocrisy by continuously and vigorously attacking our neighbour, largest trading partner and ultimately our protector all the while taking part in your culture, commerce, entertainment and vacation spots. THAT is the true Canadian way.

Is it fair to say, that the regional diffences within Canada and USA respectively, are greater than the differences between the two countries?
Absolutely, and I should have said that in the video.
Exactly, and it also applies across borders. New England for example, has much more in common with the Maritime provinces in Canada than it does with say, Louisiana. Or another example would be British Columbia being much more similar to Washington and Oregon, than say Quebec.
Johan Runfeldt your right Cascadia shares a lot more with itself than the rest of Canada and USA

Best question in this thread and you hit the nail on the head. One thing I've noticed about many Americans is when they think of Canadians, they tend to think of Torontonians. They often don't realize Canada is not just Toronto. I've watched youtube videos of Americans visiting Toronto and they'll say things like "We went up the CN tower and the view of the Canada skyline was incredible"...lol. They just don't realize that's the equivalent of saying "We went up the Empire State building and the view of the American skyline is beautiful"...lol.

cause a lot try to say that they are different but come on we all know that you guys are really like americans whether you like it or not just because you got a place that speak french with an american accent or the way american people soynd when they try to speak french does not mean that you guys are that different, you guys are right next to each other
canada speak english and it own so called French
while America has no official langiages but the most used are Ebglish and spanish, some german and etc
meaning that america is a multi lingual country it very diverse in languages everyone speak there own languages
like if you go to state like Miami in america you will hear spanish the most because...... Miami is the south america of America so a lot of latino live there most people there speak spanish than english but you will still hear english

Speak for yourself, not all Americans
I've always been fascinated how us Canadians do measurements, it's such a hodge-podge of metric and imperial.
Distances/lengths:
1) Shorter distances we use mostly inches and feet, but prefer meters and kilometers to yards and miles.
2) Longer distances are either in "time" or KMs, and rarely miles, but "miles per gallon" is still a common measurement for vehicles.
3) Dimensions for buildings are universally in sqft, never in metric. Same with most things relating to construction, but many Canadians own 2 sets of tools like wrenches, one set in each system.
4) Heights are in ft/in, but all our documentation has cm.
5) Clothing and shoes are all in the American sizing system.
Weight/volume:
1) Things relating to cooking are mostly in imperial, but most people have no reference what an "ounce" is and prefer grams for smaller measurements.
2) Personal weight is in lbs, but again documentation is in kilograms.
3) Weights for most food are in lbs, but liquids are in liters. Like you would go to the store to grab 5 lbs of potatoes and 4 liters of milk, but never 2KG of potatoes and a gallon of milk (I've heard a few older Canadians use gallons, but it is pretty rare).
Temperature
1) Always in Celsius except for cooking. I would have only a vague idea of what 75F outside would feel like, but I also wouldn't know what temperature to cook my chicken at in Celsius.
I did not know that. I saw the "km" speed limit signs in Ontario and heard the weather reports from Canadian radio and assumed ya'll had fully converted.
funny I grew up in a house with imperial temperature INSIDE in Canada, same for the pool temperature. We then moved to a new house with metric temperature inside and it was much easier to predict since I knew my metric for outside temperature.
But we simply cannot fully convert as long as the US doesnt, since we use the same construction wares and shit.
And we like to dunk on the Americans for using the imperial system, it’s so funny
I just use Metric for everything unless I'm talking with people, then I use whichever system they prefer.
I only use imperial for height and golf, other than that I use the metric system.
