"In Québec sometimes people speak french"..... does this girl actually know anything about Canada? Québec is 95% french. And no we are not always polite.
Quebec definitely likes to obstruct other provinces. But I'd say Ontario is worse. "Good things grow in Ontariooooooo" I always hated those commercials.
I'm a native french speaker from Quebec and it's the same for me. The typical "Canadian accents" is usually from southern Ontario which is really close to the mainstream american TV/movies accent. However like the US since it's a large sparsely populated territory you will get unusual accents across the country.
Exactly and nobody says hey instead of eh. Also Canadians also say right at the end of a sentence. And Canadian use bathroom just as often as they use washroom.
The politeness thing is so overblown. I think Canadians are very welcoming and hospitable to visitors, tourists, immigrants etc.. But nice to each other? Not a chance....the hockey fights, the bar fights, the road rage...cmon.
We'll just say levels of politeness then. Experience has tended to show me Canadians keep politeness at a bit of a more level, while here in the US there's high plateaus, almost to the point of seriously considering a lot of us are bipolar... I guarantee you we're to a noticeable degree more unpredictable in respectfulness.
The TV show 'Justified' played it best when some Canadians, one played by Will Sasso, came into town. "I thought all you Canadians were supposed to be nice" "Wrong Canadians" 😂
Haha! Road rage.....I kicked a dude threw his driver side window once. He fucked with me pretty bad for quite a while, and then finally called me a "fa**ot" while we were sitting at a light, and that was it. Put it in park, got out walked over to his shitty little lowered Civic, and just *BOOM*, kicked him in the side of the head, right thru the glass.....got back in my car and drive away, and I look and there's about 10 people filming me.....fuck😂

The longest I ever waited was 15 hours!!!! I got up to leave and told the nurse and she got the doctor and they did tests. He was like, WHAT ? No one saw you yet? But usually you'll wait 5-8 hours to be seen by a doctor. The other day I went to the ER bc I was puking all night and they took me in rt away and eventually tested me and gave me an iv of fluids with gravol which made me sleep so that was great! but then I just lay there for quite awhile. They said because I was not in a life threatening position they would see to the others first. But they did come eventually and sent me home about 230pm. We got there at 7:30am. It was a long time, but they checked a lot of things. labs and xray. @Lisa Neuman
@Lisa Neuman Jesus Christ. The healthcare is "free" as in "free at point of service." FFS. What a dumb comment. And wait times (I'm assuming that's what you meant even though you typed "what times") are only "insane" if you live in the middle of nowhere. If you have to wait, that's because sicker people are being seen ahead of you. And that is basic triage, something which is done EVERYWHERE.
To the American year, that's what it sounds like to us, and if I ever mention to someone that they pronounced it like that, they say they didn't. It really is not as strong as it's spelled. I just can't explain to you what we hear, but is very noticeable to the American ear. Aboot is just the closest we can spell it to try and explain. I've only been to Ontario and British Columbia, so I can't say how it is in other provinces.
I’m Canadian and I say bathroom. It kinda depends on what province you grow up in, cause Canadian slang varies a shit ton from toronto to Alberta to Vancouver or Quebec.
Also Canadian here and for the most part I use both Bathroom and washroom interchangeably but more so washroom for public facilities mind you it isn't something you think about until you watch a video like this lol
@@jordanh5803 that’s what I’m saying. It kinda depends sometimes I use bathroom or washroom. I find washroom to be more formal and polite. But I use bathroom as more of everyday common use.

@@rachelmacdonald9195 Canada and the 13 colonies had a shared experience of Jamestown,Roanoke and Plymouth Rock and only separated after 1776-1783. We share similar accents and cultures but are not the same. Many loyalists left the 13 colonies and settled in Canada. Yes, I know the Quebec/Montreal French Canadians were there first. You are our brothers and the U.K. is our cousin (older,of course).
As an American, I've meet a few Canadian people before and they've been nothing but really nice. I really enjoy having conversations with you all. Wish you all the best 👍
I'm just a Missouri hillbilly, and using the term 'washroom' is not the norm, but not unheard of; many older people..even older than me..age 54.. use it here. Outside the U.S., I've only been to Ontario, Canada..beautiful province and people! I loved driving on 401 freeway.."The Queen's Highway"..it made my drive so much classier!!
Her scattered description of Canadian healthcare really speaks to how little we have to think about healthcare as canadians xD Let me clarify: General healthcare is covered by the taxes you pay. If you need to visit a hospital, you just do. There's no "billing" section of the hospital, you just go. The things she was refering to (dental, optometry, chiro, ect) are things NOT covered by Canadian Universal Healthcare. Those things are covered by the extra healthcare 99% of employers offer to their employees. It IS extra, but most workplaces offer some extended healthcare option to help cover those costs.
Canadians dont even have a space program or any other effective, world class goverment institution....but you think your goverment can give u effective health care and at the same time you cant audit the amount of taxes your economy pays.....its why the whole country sucks and you drive around broke at 50kph. Its sucks to be an american and have such scared people as our neighbors.
Same as Australia. We can go on waiting lists for voluntary procedures. But you could wait awhile hence why many use private and choose their dr etc. Like knee reconstructions or eye surgery weightloss etc etc
Literally NO ONE in Canada says "aboot" that's like an American mocking how we talk, but that's not how we say it. Sure, it's kind of deeper, but not to that point
I have no idea how that misconception started about we pronounce "about". I've been living in Toronto for 47 years and have never heard any Canadian from any part of Canada pronounce it "aboot".
@@chanellesadoll It's about the differences...not the similarities. In Vancouver a "beanie" is a fashion statement, in the rest of Canada a "tuque" is a necessity.✌
Im Albertan, & I think beanie is understood, but toque is still more common. I say "I know right" sometimes, but I'm aware it's an import phrase, lol. I almost never say "right" in place of "hey/eh", though.
Minnesota, North Dakota and Montana isn’t too much different climatically from the inhabited area of Canada. A few degrees at most. The same respect to the Great Lakes region of Ontario in respect to Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin.
If you didn't understand, she meant ''eh'' not ''hey''. :P In french we say ''hein'' quite often as she said but I don't know why ''eh'' would be a french canadian thing!? lol
You say that because you're an anglophone that CAN speak french? I'm a french canadian and we say ''hein'' but ''eh'' is ''in english''. lol Si des québécois disent ''eh'' c'est clairement parce qu'ils sont anglophones et c'est une habitude qu'ils ont en parlant en anglais.
We in Canada chose to establish Thanksgiving in October to de-conflict from Remembrance Day which is always November 11 at 11:00 AM. Plus, many regions already did a Thanksgiving style celebration in October because of the earlier harvest.
i’m canadian and 1. we say bathroom, washroom and restroom 2. we say tuques sometimes but usually just beanies or hats 3. we (at least me) definitely say the word “right” after sentences lol, but a lot of people say “eh” not including me 4. all people i know say pasta differently there isn’t a distinctly canadian way to say it 5. tim hortons i believe was just recently bought by burger king (i think) but we’ve had timbits forever and we’ve had sandwiches there for sooo long, i don’t think it’s been just bagels donuts and coffee for like a long long time, it’s also just as good as it’s always been in my lifetime 6. for me personally growing up, we had kind of a negative connotation with americans because you guys knew nothing about us but we know so much about you, also you guys are so obsessed with your own country and the whole “america is the greatest country in the world” thing it was kind of just like we saw americans as crazy people across the border lol THAT being said though i love going to the states bc you guys have so many more stores and cool food that we don’t have (ex. you guys have SO MANY flavours of oreos it’s actually insane) and also your serving sizes at restaurants is incredible 7. when i travel, and most people i know travel, we don’t want to be called american bc no offence a lot of countries around the world don’t like americans but they like canadians so if you travel with a canadian flag, in my experience people are so nice and they come up to you and like to ask us about it

@@OscarDirlwood You don't need to tell me. My family has been in Toronto for 200 years which is rare because the population was 1250 then, most of which lived temporarily at Fort York.
I left Canada 43 years ago and still cannot finish a sentence without "eh? ". Canadians enunciate their words more clearly I think, where in the USA it's so much about what state you grew up in, there are so many variables. When I first moved to Texas I had to learn how to speak much more slowly. Interesting subject.
Ok I wasn’t born in Canada but been living here for half my life, and this girl don’t seem to really know much about her own country. 🙄 like I could probably do a way better job than she did.
Marcela Cortes that’s why I’m wondering what part of Canada she’s from cause majority of the stuff she’s saying isn’t accurate at all (especially Ontario)
Dia Wanderingspirit Not if they have insurance. I believe there are also ethical rules that hospitals have to treat all people for emergencies but I don't know the details. There are down and up sides to both systems but Canadian health care isn't free, was my point. It SEEMS free to those who don't pay taxes or who aren't aware where their taxes go.
theres a lot a different accents everywhere in Canada as well, she forgets that there's a lot of place they speak french in Ontario, New Brunswick, etc. Their english is different as well. I dont think she know much about her country
Thanksgiving in Canada has to do with the harvesting of crops. It, more or less, represents the end of harvest, where a feast was put on for the workers that helped with harvesting the crops. I could be mistaken in this, but that is what I remember from school many many many years ago.
This is true. The American version is more tied to an actual event in Plymouth, Mass. in Nov. 1621. Also, our harvest comes later so makes sense the American version falls in Nov. as opposed to Oct. in Canada, where it tends to frost sooner in most regions. As an American, I love exactly where ours falls in late November in most cases to kick off a four day weekend (I do feel for those in the retail sector that have to work that much harder on Friday). Right ahead of the over-commercialized Christmas season where everyone is expected to exchange gifts.
@@tmclaughlin11 Actually the Thursday celebration was originated by Abraham Lincoln in response to recent Union victories and his reelection, all but sealing the Confederacy's defeat.

There are cultural and language differences within both the US and Canada. I am Southern and this is reflected in both my accent and my culture, both somewhat different from someone in New England or California. I would imagine a French Canadian is somewhat different from a Canadian from British Columbia who is also different from someone from the Maritime provinces. But lets be honest - we are talking about minor differences. We are a lot more similar than we are different.
No, not really. I dont feel like I have any similarity or want any affiliation with American culture or politics - I feel more in common with the UK as a Canadian than the US. We are a lot more reserved, don’t like talking about religion (unlike the US), mannerisms, etiquette, metrics, spelling and way of life I find is a lot more different than when I visit the US. Now I know I cannot generalize a country with 350 million people but overall I find the behaviour very different.
@@torink8229 thats just not true though, as a Brit who is a Canadian Citizen and has been to the USA, Canada and the USA are far more similar than either is to the UK. Despite Canada having our Monarch and retaining more of its colonial past and tradition, basically every other single aspect of the two is more akin to each other, despite some minor differences. And, sorry to burst your bubble, but the lifestyle in Canada and the USA is far more similar than in the UK, despite what the Canadian propaganda and media might say
@Supunk Maybe it depends on the location of Canada, but yes the lifestyles can be similar but I don’t find that we socialize quite the same. I always find Americans to be very different when they are in my home city of Toronto. They are either too intense or too superficial and chatty. This is a broad generlization but Anglo-Canadians, like brits, are more polite and a bit awkward in my experience in comparison to the USA. But socially and politically the countries couldn’t be more different in my experiences.
@@torink8229 I live in Bentonville, Arkansas, the headquarter city for Walmart, and we have people from all over the world working here. The presence from India is so large we actually have cricket facilities and leagues here, but I digress. There are quite a few Canadians here, and the only way I know is that they either have a maple leaf decal/bumper sticker on their car, or they tell me they are Canadian. They sound like they are from somewhere in the US Midwest, and when I ask them if they had trouble adjusting, the general response is, "no", that things are very similar to where they were from in Canada, other than the US having private health insurance instead of a government run service. I realize this is not a huge sample or anything more than one person's experience, but I still think that we are a lot more alike than we are different.
I often will just use the term "North American" when I hear a standard NA accent, just so I know I'm right :D I have some friends from Calgary and Toronto, and what I've noticed (at least from them) is that the Calgarians sound totally standard NA, but my friends from Toronto have a much more distinctly Canadian accent (sor-ry, out sounding like ah-oot, eh, etc). Not sure if that applies to all east-vs-westerners though :)
Canada has an earlier Thanksgiving because our harvest season is earlier. The US Thanksgiving is based on the harvest time for the area around the Mason-Dixie line and is still not appropriate for the harvest in the Northern states but it was what the government decided to use for the standardized holiday as a median between the north and the south. If we waited till the end of November to harvest food then frost would already ruin the crops and freeze the soil.
This is not really correct.The Pilgrims settled in New England ,which has a fairly similar environment/growing season to parts of Canada(say southern Ontario/s .Quebec and the region).And then the whole starving Pilgrims/Native people giving food in winter story.
wjdietrich Please do some research. Your 'First Thanksgiving' actually occurred in October anyway. Thanksgiving was originally a harvest celebration celebrated even before the pilgrims landed so the pilgrim anecdote is irrelevant to its contemporary occurrence.
It's not just about the weather differences between Canada and northern USA, in Canada sunsets are earlier than in the US, that's why crops are harvested earlier (blooming periods come earlier the farther north you go). edit: an hour of daylight difference and 2-3 degrees of difference change a lot, ask any farmer or botanist.... the dates of thanksgiving are more arbitrary thought
Love learning about Canadians and Americans. I’m British and 100% we know Canadians are not the same as Americans and it’s a huge no no to get them mixed up
I’m a Canadian but I never really caught myself saying aboot but I do sometimes say eh, and saying sorry is real AF onetime I accidentally kicked a table leg and said sorry to the table... overall the Canadian girl triggered me so much especially when she said “some places in Quebec speek French” but 95% of people in Quebec Speek French
Its weird because I'm Canadian and lived here for all 18 years of my life and I say all the same things Americans say 😂😂 I say bathroom, beanies, etc and I don't have a Canadian accent at all
I live in Toronto 🇨🇦 but I’ve never heard people say “aboot or hey” 😂 “eh” yes people do sometimes use it. Thanksgiving is celebrated here in Canada during the months of October in celebration of the Fall Harvest 🧡
I've lived in America my whole life. I've been in Canada for 26 days and neither one is better. It's just different. Canadians seem way happier though. I've been to 49 states and 10 provinces so far.
1.washroom/bathroom/restroom is used across Canada 2. Older generations say toque and younger say beanie (where I am from) 3. Never said eh in my life. Only the older people say eh. (We also say right wtf) 4. Aboot IS NOT A THING. No. Just. No. 5.pasta not pahsta 6.starbucks n Tim’s are v popular in Canada 7.our health care is superior 8.we watch all American shows. Like everything u watch is on Canadian tv too. It’s all American. We have pbs n Disney n everything idk what she’s talking about. 9. walmart. super store. Costco. All of our one stops
Younger generations do not say beanie. That is not a thing. Also, lots of younger people say "eh", it is not just an older generation thing We don't have PBS, or Disney. We get some of their TV shows and movies, but we don't have the channels in Canada.
My heart breaks for people who don’t have free healthcare. From my understanding people can easily get in-debt when they are rushed to the ER. And then there’s the cancer treatment that can easily save lives, but they can’t afford it. And conditions that can cause serious harm without regular medication- like asthma, diabetes, etc. ... I can’t imagine...
Culturally there are a lot of similarities. I live in Seattle and it's way more culturally similar to Vancouver than it is to most US cities in other regions of the United States.
This video was supposed to demonstrate that there are significant differences between the US and Canada, but instead the differences you were able to think of are all so very insignificant that it serves to illustrate the fact that Canada and the US actually pretty much are the same. The minor differences in what words we use, or what stores are available, or what day Thanksgiving is on, or how certain parts of our healthcare bureaucracy function, are not any more significant than the differences found within the various regions of each country. In fact, I think it would be fair to say that Anglophone Canada is more similar to the US than Quebec. Similarly, Canada and the USA mainland are probably more culturally similar to each other than the USA mainland is to Hawaii or Puerto Rico, which are part of the USA.
Lived across the border as a teen. You could defo tell you lived in the US. Similar culture overall (aside from specific things like say Nov 11) but still clear you weren't in Canada.
When I was travelling through both countries and got to know the people a bit, I had the impression that the main difference is how Canada is run ( stricter gun laws, less crime, stronger sense of solidarity and community life ) so the perception of values is a bit more similar to Europe but the mentality of the English speaking was pretty much the same in the rest.
Thanksgiving in Canada is all about getting together after all the harvest is completed to enjoy it and to be thankful for what the earth has provided so that's why we have it.
That's not what thanksgiving is about. It's about early colonizers celebrating taking land from indigenous people and succeeding in taking it, so they have a feast celebrating having new "safe" land
I'm a western Canadan and on this side of the prairies we say "Hey" instead of "eh" The Canadan girl didnt know that "aboot" is a maritime pronunciation where they kept their Scots and Irish accents more. She also didn't know that our Thanksgiving is an October harvest festival Also - healthcare is free for all necessary healthcare needs. Benefits are for optional services. Massage, chiro, braces, dental, birth control, etc. Family planning services are free under 30. So your provincial health coverage keeps you healthy, your benefits make life better.
Chat up with this World Ethical hacker for any hacking services you need, social account hacking his the best in that, thank God for him in my life. Kindly message him today and see +13202044748
Tbh some of the optional care really isn't optional. And chronic health conditions make it harder for people to work full time get benefits, or downright impossible due to frequent absences. I appreciate you elaborating on this point, and it certainly is better to deal with in Canada but it's still hard.
The reason for thanksgiving in October is that it is a harvest festival. By November in most of Canada, the ground would be frozen by November, hardly a time of harvest.
I live in Québec and we mostly speak french. The province is mostly french everyone have to speak french even in Montreal if you speak french, you need to be served in french. It’s like a law
Funny! I date an American and we have had some good giggles. I made him watch Letterkenny for a good idea of our lingo. You have touched on so many of them:) Sometimes when you say something fast you hear it...like "a boot"
Im Canadian, born and raised I dont say 'soerry' almost all Québec ppl speak French nobody says hey instead of eh nobody I know calls beanie toques, but I know that's what the Canadian term is.
I've been here most of my life like over 20 years from Jamaica and I disagree with many things the Canadian girl said. Our health care in Canada is not like an allowance. We don't say a boot and we dont say hey after a seance. I also realized that the younger generation hardly ever speak like that anymore. I find it weird that most people celebrate holidays without knowing the history for example they were talking about Thanksgiving Day and neither of them knew why they celebrate it.

I’m Canadian and I say bathroom. It kinda depends on what province you grow up in, cause Canadian slang varies a shit ton from toronto to Alberta to Vancouver or Quebec.
Yeah...just like the USA slang differs from the west coast to the east coast and to the south.
ya so true
Also Canadian here and for the most part I use both Bathroom and washroom interchangeably but more so washroom for public facilities mind you it isn't something you think about until you watch a video like this lol
@@jordanh5803 that’s what I’m saying. It kinda depends sometimes I use bathroom or washroom. I find washroom to be more formal and polite. But I use bathroom as more of everyday common use.
I think they're kind of intertwined
I'm Canadian..i've never said "a-boot" or "Hey". Pleeeeease. This girl doesn't not represent Canada.

Her scattered description of Canadian healthcare really speaks to how little we have to think about healthcare as canadians xD Let me clarify: General healthcare is covered by the taxes you pay. If you need to visit a hospital, you just do. There's no "billing" section of the hospital, you just go. The things she was refering to (dental, optometry, chiro, ect) are things NOT covered by Canadian Universal Healthcare. Those things are covered by the extra healthcare 99% of employers offer to their employees. It IS extra, but most workplaces offer some extended healthcare option to help cover those costs.
less you live in bc
Skkorm I’m planning my move
Canadians dont even have a space program or any other effective, world class goverment institution....but you think your goverment can give u effective health care and at the same time you cant audit the amount of taxes your economy pays.....its why the whole country sucks and you drive around broke at 50kph. Its sucks to be an american and have such scared people as our neighbors.
Same as Australia. We can go on waiting lists for voluntary procedures. But you could wait awhile hence why many use private and choose their dr etc. Like knee reconstructions or eye surgery weightloss etc etc
I wouldn't say anywhere near 99% of employers, but I agree with everything else
Literally NO ONE in Canada says "aboot" that's like an American mocking how we talk, but that's not how we say it. Sure, it's kind of deeper, but not to that point

We in Canada chose to establish Thanksgiving in October to de-conflict from Remembrance Day which is always November 11 at 11:00 AM. Plus, many regions already did a Thanksgiving style celebration in October because of the earlier harvest.
Thanksgiving is literally on Colombus day. I wonder if this has something to do with that.
@@tinaet4909 - I doubt it. Columbus Day was never a holiday in Canada, nor was it celebrated in any manner.
In my mind, Thanksgiving in Canada in early October makes the most sense because the produce that we have grown has all been harvested. @tinaet4909
i’m canadian and 1. we say bathroom, washroom and restroom 2. we say tuques sometimes but usually just beanies or hats 3. we (at least me) definitely say the word “right” after sentences lol, but a lot of people say “eh” not including me 4. all people i know say pasta differently there isn’t a distinctly canadian way to say it 5. tim hortons i believe was just recently bought by burger king (i think) but we’ve had timbits forever and we’ve had sandwiches there for sooo long, i don’t think it’s been just bagels donuts and coffee for like a long long time, it’s also just as good as it’s always been in my lifetime 6. for me personally growing up, we had kind of a negative connotation with americans because you guys knew nothing about us but we know so much about you, also you guys are so obsessed with your own country and the whole “america is the greatest country in the world” thing it was kind of just like we saw americans as crazy people across the border lol THAT being said though i love going to the states bc you guys have so many more stores and cool food that we don’t have (ex. you guys have SO MANY flavours of oreos it’s actually insane) and also your serving sizes at restaurants is incredible 7. when i travel, and most people i know travel, we don’t want to be called american bc no offence a lot of countries around the world don’t like americans but they like canadians so if you travel with a canadian flag, in my experience people are so nice and they come up to you and like to ask us about it

It's not FREE healthcare. Taxes pay for it. If you work, you pay.... for everyone.

Dia Wanderingspirit Not if they have insurance. I believe there are also ethical rules that hospitals have to treat all people for emergencies but I don't know the details.
There are down and up sides to both systems but Canadian health care isn't free, was my point. It SEEMS free to those who don't pay taxes or who aren't aware where their taxes go.

Thanksgiving in Canada has to do with the harvesting of crops. It, more or less, represents the end of harvest, where a feast was put on for the workers that helped with harvesting the crops. I could be mistaken in this, but that is what I remember from school many many many years ago.
This is true. The American version is more tied to an actual event in Plymouth, Mass. in Nov. 1621. Also, our harvest comes later so makes sense the American version falls in Nov. as opposed to Oct. in Canada, where it tends to frost sooner in most regions.
As an American, I love exactly where ours falls in late November in most cases to kick off a four day weekend (I do feel for those in the retail sector that have to work that much harder on Friday). Right ahead of the over-commercialized Christmas season where everyone is expected to exchange gifts.

There are cultural and language differences within both the US and Canada. I am Southern and this is reflected in both my accent and my culture, both somewhat different from someone in New England or California. I would imagine a French Canadian is somewhat different from a Canadian from British Columbia who is also different from someone from the Maritime provinces. But lets be honest - we are talking about minor differences. We are a lot more similar than we are different.
No, not really. I dont feel like I have any similarity or want any affiliation with American culture or politics - I feel more in common with the UK as a Canadian than the US. We are a lot more reserved, don’t like talking about religion (unlike the US), mannerisms, etiquette, metrics, spelling and way of life I find is a lot more different than when I visit the US. Now I know I cannot generalize a country with 350 million people but overall I find the behaviour very different.
@@torink8229 thats just not true though, as a Brit who is a Canadian Citizen and has been to the USA, Canada and the USA are far more similar than either is to the UK. Despite Canada having our Monarch and retaining more of its colonial past and tradition, basically every other single aspect of the two is more akin to each other, despite some minor differences. And, sorry to burst your bubble, but the lifestyle in Canada and the USA is far more similar than in the UK, despite what the Canadian propaganda and media might say
@Supunk Maybe it depends on the location of Canada, but yes the lifestyles can be similar but I don’t find that we socialize quite the same. I always find Americans to be very different when they are in my home city of Toronto. They are either too intense or too superficial and chatty. This is a broad generlization but Anglo-Canadians, like brits, are more polite and a bit awkward in my experience in comparison to the USA. But socially and politically the countries couldn’t be more different in my experiences.
@@torink8229 I live in Bentonville, Arkansas, the headquarter city for Walmart, and we have people from all over the world working here. The presence from India is so large we actually have cricket facilities and leagues here, but I digress. There are quite a few Canadians here, and the only way I know is that they either have a maple leaf decal/bumper sticker on their car, or they tell me they are Canadian. They sound like they are from somewhere in the US Midwest, and when I ask them if they had trouble adjusting, the general response is, "no", that things are very similar to where they were from in Canada, other than the US having private health insurance instead of a government run service. I realize this is not a huge sample or anything more than one person's experience, but I still think that we are a lot more alike than we are different.
As a Canadian I can not get my time back that it took me to watch the first 5 minutes
You can TOTALLY tell if someone’s from Toronto to Vancouver lol. This women doesn’t even know when thanksgiving is lol she doesn’t know much.
I often will just use the term "North American" when I hear a standard NA accent, just so I know I'm right :D I have some friends from Calgary and Toronto, and what I've noticed (at least from them) is that the Calgarians sound totally standard NA, but my friends from Toronto have a much more distinctly Canadian accent (sor-ry, out sounding like ah-oot, eh, etc). Not sure if that applies to all east-vs-westerners though :)

Canada has an earlier Thanksgiving because our harvest season is earlier. The US Thanksgiving is based on the harvest time for the area around the Mason-Dixie line and is still not appropriate for the harvest in the Northern states but it was what the government decided to use for the standardized holiday as a median between the north and the south. If we waited till the end of November to harvest food then frost would already ruin the crops and freeze the soil.
This is not really correct.The Pilgrims settled in New England ,which has a fairly similar environment/growing season to parts of Canada(say southern Ontario/s .Quebec and the region).And then the whole starving Pilgrims/Native people giving food in winter story.
wjdietrich Please do some research. Your 'First Thanksgiving' actually occurred in October anyway. Thanksgiving was originally a harvest celebration celebrated even before the pilgrims landed so the pilgrim anecdote is irrelevant to its contemporary occurrence.
It's not just about the weather differences between Canada and northern USA, in Canada sunsets are earlier than in the US, that's why crops are harvested earlier (blooming periods come earlier the farther north you go).
edit: an hour of daylight difference and 2-3 degrees of difference change a lot, ask any farmer or botanist.... the dates of thanksgiving are more arbitrary thought
Thanksgiving is supposed to occur when the harvest has come in. Canada being north of the US has its harvest finished earlier. it's as simple as that.
Love learning about Canadians and Americans. I’m British and 100% we know Canadians are not the same as Americans and it’s a huge no no to get them mixed up

Sometimes you say things so much that you don't even realize it
Its more older people who are in there 25's to 60's who say eh
Thanksgiving in Canada is in October because of the difference in temperature it is colder in Canada so the harvest comes earlier then in America

That Canadian must be from a small town lol
Younger generations do not say beanie. That is not a thing.
Also, lots of younger people say "eh", it is not just an older generation thing
We don't have PBS, or Disney. We get some of their TV shows and movies, but we don't have the channels in Canada.
ClochesJerusalem what part of Canada did u grow up in??? N I grew up watching Disney and pbs. It’s American but we can get the channels...
ClochesJerusalem n beanie is a thing where I’m from idk what part of Canada ur from but in the west it is.
Professor Snippety-snaps alberta born and raised. Not a thing. Maybe in BC actually.... i could totally se it being a thing there....
My heart breaks for people who don’t have free healthcare. From my understanding people can easily get in-debt when they are rushed to the ER. And then there’s the cancer treatment that can easily save lives, but they can’t afford it. And conditions that can cause serious harm without regular medication- like asthma, diabetes, etc.
... I can’t imagine...
love u you are very nice
Well it’s not bad for people who make good money but for the poor population yes it’s sad
We need another representative of Canada, this chick isn’t doin so good. A bit embarrassing.

I've literally never met a single person who considers USA and Canada almost same
Culturally there are a lot of similarities. I live in Seattle and it's way more culturally similar to Vancouver than it is to most US cities in other regions of the United States.
Madli Veski Culturally we are the same. Am a Canadian
This video was supposed to demonstrate that there are significant differences between the US and Canada, but instead the differences you were able to think of are all so very insignificant that it serves to illustrate the fact that Canada and the US actually pretty much are the same. The minor differences in what words we use, or what stores are available, or what day Thanksgiving is on, or how certain parts of our healthcare bureaucracy function, are not any more significant than the differences found within the various regions of each country. In fact, I think it would be fair to say that Anglophone Canada is more similar to the US than Quebec. Similarly, Canada and the USA mainland are probably more culturally similar to each other than the USA mainland is to Hawaii or Puerto Rico, which are part of the USA.
Totally agree!
Lived across the border as a teen. You could defo tell you lived in the US. Similar culture overall (aside from specific things like say Nov 11) but still clear you weren't in Canada.
we should be divided east west
Mainland and Hawaii are cultural similar. Not so much Puerto Rico
They couldn't argue against the straight up fact that Canada and the US are really similar...
When I was travelling through both countries and got to know the people a bit, I had the impression that the main difference is how Canada is run ( stricter gun laws, less crime, stronger sense of solidarity and community life ) so the perception of values is a bit more similar to Europe but the mentality of the English speaking was pretty much the same in the rest.
Awwe thank you
Thanksgiving in Canada is all about getting together after all the harvest is completed to enjoy it and to be thankful for what the earth has provided so that's why we have it.
And for Americans its just about eating.
That's not what thanksgiving is about. It's about early colonizers celebrating taking land from indigenous people and succeeding in taking it, so they have a feast celebrating having new "safe" land
@@chl0e_st4r_ Ohhhhhhh, Ok. Sorry
@@wazzurp42 you are very uneducated my friend
I know..
“Eh” turns a typical statement into a question, often rhetoric.
I'm a western Canadan and on this side of the prairies we say "Hey" instead of "eh"
The Canadan girl didnt know that "aboot" is a maritime pronunciation where they kept their Scots and Irish accents more.
She also didn't know that our Thanksgiving is an October harvest festival
Also - healthcare is free for all necessary healthcare needs. Benefits are for optional services. Massage, chiro, braces, dental, birth control, etc. Family planning services are free under 30. So your provincial health coverage keeps you healthy, your benefits make life better.

Tbh some of the optional care really isn't optional. And chronic health conditions make it harder for people to work full time get benefits, or downright impossible due to frequent absences. I appreciate you elaborating on this point, and it certainly is better to deal with in Canada but it's still hard.
where I live there is a Irish pub where alot of people are irish! It's a nice way to (potentially) meet your unknown family members !
I’m a western Canadian too, and rarely do I hear hey, maybe it’s a gen z term. To me it’s very American
The reason for thanksgiving in October is that it is a harvest festival. By November in most of Canada, the ground would be frozen by November, hardly a time of harvest.
Where r u ma Canadiannnnnnnns!!!! 😘🇨🇦

In Quebec sometimes people speak English!
Braces are not covered with provincial plans and are only covered when supplemental insurance
Hey buddy
How are you keeping,
Where are you from??
Funny! I date an American and we have had some good giggles. I made him watch Letterkenny for a good idea of our lingo. You have touched on so many of them:) Sometimes when you say something fast you hear it...like "a boot"
Im Canadian, born and raised
I dont say 'soerry'
almost all Québec ppl speak French
nobody says hey instead of eh
nobody I know calls beanie toques, but I know that's what the Canadian term is.
aparna yogalingam lots of Canadians say hey instead of eh. Mostly in Alberta and BC.
aparna yogalingam I don't know a soul who says beanie it's only toque
Wow! I guess Canada is fucking huge and none of really know anything then 😂😂😂
dsimmons15 really! Woah, I'm from Toronto, I've never heard anyone say hey
aparna yogalingam Toronto is much more diverse and linguistically different from the rest of Canada. I'm from the west and it's different
So Canadians and Americans aren’t the same now eh? But at the end of the day we are all people ya know
Nope. We're better than Americans. Period.
I'm more Canadian than her and I've only been in Canada for 7 years.
Hatuey McFarland I’ve been in Canada my whole life
@@gachaplays9432 Same
@@IuIianos me too
I've been here most of my life like over 20 years from Jamaica and I disagree with many things the Canadian girl said. Our health care in Canada is not like an allowance. We don't say a boot and we dont say hey after a seance. I also realized that the younger generation hardly ever speak like that anymore. I find it weird that most people celebrate holidays without knowing the history for example they were talking about Thanksgiving Day and neither of them knew why they celebrate it.
•Gacha Plays• So? no offense
American: Where is my car?
Canadian: Where is my moose?
No, the Moose is like: Where is my Canadian?
bro what if you thought of even going in a 20 ft radius of a moose your ass is gonna be grass
Hey buddy
How are you keeping,
Where are you from??
