- Are you aware of the many funny differences between Canadians and Americans? Don’t get us wrong, we LOVE our Canadian friends, but the truth is we are hilariously different! These are 25 funny differences between Canadians and Americans.
Being different is not a bad thing. But it’s still interesting to see just how different two neighboring countries can be. Check out these funny difference between Canadians and Americans (and our photo credits and sources) and don’t forget to leave a comment on the video letting us know of any other differences you guys are aware of:

When we said Canadians and Americans were different, we were not joking. For example, did you know Canada has two official languages (English and French)? Guess how many official languages America has. If you enjoy Pandora and Spotify, don’t go to Canada. Licensing restrictions will prevent you from enjoying them. Also, Americans are more confrontational than Canadians. Again, these differences are not necessarily a bad thing, just a different way of viewing things such as government. Canadians tend to trust their government more than Americans trust theirs (then again, can you blame us). Get ready because we are about to share with you 25 funny differences between Canadians and Americans.

list25 Canadians say aboot instead of about

11 is wrong. We have Spotify in Canada but not Pandora.
Also for 2, I can shop online fine so idk. I've never encountered a store without a website.
list25 you said usa have best flag seriously england as better
Well, no, we said "no one beats America in flags" referring to the love of its flag. Not flag design. - Juan

Be nice to Colin. He can't help that he's "special". He's an American.
oobaka1967 Watch yourself. Just a friendly reminder.
JayAxOrion y'a i was aboot tooooo saaaaaaay thaaat toooooo
He said Canadians don't get to enjoy Spotify and Pandora due to licensing restrictions. That was the basis of Jay's comment.
the biggest difference: *GUN LAWS*
NeInE 670 that’s not true, US gun law is different state to state, Canada is federal level and Canadian do have guns, u can legally buy AR15 in Canada
@@ShakeMyHeart1 but no one does. Or if they do by some chance thr not shooting up schools.
bobby ruest dude that’s every province west of Nova Scotia and East of Manitoba
Canada has a way more straight forward gun law
I am Canadian, I own hand guns, shotguns, and high powered rifles. We cannot buy fully automatic firearms and neither can most Americans because they are to dam expensive!!!
He left out the fact that Canada uses the metric system, whereas the USA does not.
David Harrison
Meters - Canada
Inch - America
Fahrenheit, am I right? 😏...I’m sorry 😅😂
the three countries which are not using the metric system are Liberia, Myanmar and of course… the United States of America.
Then explain 2 litre bottles! Lol
Prepperjon... easy... the companies (in the US) that produce their product in 2litre bottles, its because they also export out of the US. As far as their exports go, the quantity staying within the US is the minority. So, the American companies choose to not have an “American size” gallon containers and an “everywhere else” litre containers, forcing Americans to get a taste of the rest of the worlds perspective...
(Oddly, for me, I use both metric and imperial... I read a tape measure in feet and inches, Im 6’2”, I have no clue how many metres or centimetres or millimetres tall I am!
In Canadian football, its measured in yards, not metres, just like NFL. )
Uhh, you forgot that Canada has universal health care and gun control laws.
@@jerrytheracecardriver1100 so you'd only "storm the parliament" when you have guns.. taugh guy eh? Sit tf down 🤦🏻♂️
@@jerrytheracecardriver1100 ...
I'm pretty sure that's not happening anytime lol. Plus, gun control is needed for public safety. I personally am neutral when it comes to Trudeau, I don't disagree or agree with his way of running Canada. But still, storming the Parliament isn't going to happen anytime soon xD
We do but we can still own all kinds of rifles AND handguns legally. Now transport laws and being able to own restricted firearms in Canada is more strict, we can still buy and own legally some nice firearms.
Go deeper man. He covered that in the very first point. "Canadians tend to trust authority, Americans tend to be suspicious of it." Government being in control of health care and regulating firearms are manifestations of being suspicious of authority. Personality, and I say this as an American, I think they take it to a bit of a paranoid extreme, and support left of center policy, but this is the root of the difference.
That wasn't necessarily forgotten. health care and gun control are heavy leftist policies and I believe he did say that they lean farther to the the left. Also that they trust their government more, which is also a liberal thing as left wing typically desires more government control. In America, gun control would be a terrible thing, but in Canada the people are nicer and the only danger is polar bears, which I've heard guns don't work well on them
Clearly put together by an American that hasn't spent much time in Canada.
crocdoc2 Lmao I was just thinking before I clicked on this video, “This is a very American way to look at it.” I knew some one was gonna say something. (Especially because these gentlemen are from Florida. That’s about as far away as the US gets from Canada, not counting US territories.)
I agree, most of the time I was thinking uhmm...no? Review your facts.
Agreed
They got a lot wrong about Canada. 2017 and Canada didn't have Spotify? Cdn stores didn't have an online presence? WTF? The list of stuff he got wrong renders this list worthless.
Or someone (an American) who hasn't really done much research, just stating his opinions and misconceptions of Canadians (perhaps based on a few months of exposure to a Canadian student?).
Canadians believe that universal
health care is a right not a commodity
Health is about lifestyle. How you live every day. Big Pharrma* has hijacked healthcare world-wide.
And that’s why our healthcare is shit here in Canada.
@@Faceless_XIV Try your luck in captialism health care down south if you want to see "shit" outcomes
@@witheringi9492 try paying 51% income tax and 12.5% sales tax to pay for others health care. Then wait 6 months for an operation. Try again.
@@Faceless_XIV 6 years ago I had to have by pass surgery. I waited 10 days. Finally cost? 10 bucks for the phone. My wife nor myself do not play anything like 51% imcome tax. The wait now will be longer because of covid obviously. I don't mind paying for others to have health care because I'm not a selfish bastard. Go south and enjoy the tender mercies of private health care-unless of course your employer doesn't have it, or you have pre extisting conditions or your unemployed or self employed. And of course the deductibles -and even then you are not guaranteed to get timely treatment. We have private dental care-my care is rationed according to the whims of the company with a yearly limit on all procedures. One root canal uses the entire plan and I'm on the hook for the rest. I would hate to have my health care run like dental insurance. Maybe you do since you obviously think of nobody else but yourself. Canada is not a good fit for you. Go somewhere else where self centredness is admired-like Trumpland USA.
This video was obviously put together by and American who doesn’t know much about Canada
He should be sorry

I'm from Quebec and I can't be the only one who laughed when he said " except Quebec, Canada's Texas" 😂😂😂
You weren't. I was waiting for him to single out Quebec at least once in this video.
Yeah, he doesn't know what he is talking about. It's clear to any Canadians that Alberta is the Texas of Canada. Not Quebec
Excusez-moi, the Canadian version of Texas is Alberta.
Amen to that!
Im an albertan and thats basically kinda true.
Steve Royer Alberta is boring tho
Texas doesn't look that exciting either.
As an American who has lived in Texas, but now lives in Alberta, I'm going to say that Alberta is kiiiinda like Texas with respect to the oil industry and "country cowboy" mentality. Quebec is also kinda like Texas because much like in Texas, québécois view their province more independently from the rest of Canada while proud Texans will tell you that Texas comes first before the rest of the US.
I’m Canadian I have Spotify. We all have Spotify. I don’t think I know a single person who doesn’t use Spotify
Get out more and meet more people
youtube music :)
I don’t use it. If I’m not in the car listening to D.C.’s number one hit music station(99.5), I’m listening to songs on TH-cam.
It's not that Americans only hate their government, they just tend to distrust governments in general. Even the founding fathers agreed that all government is inherently corrupt
Hot Cosby yeah, the power should be in the people, not a government. power goes to peoples heads and that's why there are so many corrupt people in them. if the people don't take control, we get things like "gun bans" and other things to control the freedom of the people. recently with what's going on in the government freedom has turned into an illusion. it's a hard thing to balance but governments and countries will end up collapsing on themselves due to power struggles.
Hot Cosby do you thing then in canada we trust our government if yes your stupid nobody in the world trust government its a fucking fact
Corrupt government vs corrupt people. No wonder it's such a huge polarized debate.
Hot Cosby One of the reasons why many people distrust the government is that they don't really have say to what the government will do, the only choice they have really is to pick which the person could be hiding something, and the ones to stop them are the ones in goverment, so it does make sense.
Hot Cosby and they hate everyone in general and equally lol
I think you have thing backwards for 3. We Canadians think we're culturally similar to America while Americans think we live in Igloos.
Lmao so true,
Trenton Pottruff I don't think y'all live in igloos
Trenton Pottruff WWHHHHHHHAAAAAAATTTTTTTT???!??! You don't live in igloos?!
I think that's just a Canadian trope that they think we live in igloos but I do agree. We are far more informed with the life of Americans than they are of us.
I’m American and never thought that. I’ve even been to Canada a few times. I went to Toronto just this past summer and, even though I never thought that, it’s definitely not true.
Usa: kick out immigrant
Canada: welcome immigrant
unfortunately
An inmigrants just want to live on easy street thanks to the canadian government.
Isn't that a bit harsh guys?
Jeez y’all are being rude some immigrants actually make Canada a better place like I see some immigrant teaching kids yoga and that is a really good thing so why be so harsh some of them came for good reasons
@@capitaltrading24 I come from a family of refugees from South Sudan, what you said is literally sickening. My parents tried their damn hardest to make a living here and become financially stable, even starting their own small company and working as a nurse, we have not once purposely lived off government, sorry for commenting on an old comment but seriously, what the literal hell is wrong with you. I'm sincerely hoping I got r/wooooshed real hard rn
American: confidently talks about another country incorrectly
Canadian: shrugs passive aggressively
Yeah
Exactly
11 is wrong, we have Spotify in Canada. It's my baby.
Trenton Pottruff same dude
Trenton Pottruff same

I use play music from google
Yes we have spotify it's great

26: Kinder Eggs are legal in Canada.
Its illegal in the us !!!!!!!!
@@dandebenham4257 no shit sherlock
And guns are legal in USA
You can't buy a Kinder egg, but you can buy lethality in a pistol
@jess'_' the chocolate eggs are not, there is however no toy inside like in Europe and Canada. They give you a bag with the toy in it separately
Here in Canada we have Spotify....what the heck.
TuberStudios yeah he should've made sure about all the things he added on the list
EXACTLY! That’s what I was thinking
TuberStudios chug ur maple syrup and shut up
TuberStudios ya wtf😂😂😂😂
Yeah and I've never heard of a store without a website
Us Canadians love our USA brothers and sisters. Now I have to sit in my igloo and turn on the TV to watch hockey with a bottle of maple syrup before the polar bears steals it. :) haha
Lightsaber Addict Haha, I live in Ontario, while shoveling my driveway with my red and white shovel this morning a friendly beaver came and offered me a poutine!
Damn, Bob, that would be my dream
Maria Mort Yes, the beaver and I are friends now, I named him Denim.
Bob Last Name That's awesome. I also live in Ontario. Beavers never brought me poutine yet, though. :(
Lightsaber Addict I'm sure one will soon, unfortunately my igloo melted due to the intense heat of -20 degrees.
as an american living in michigan, i have spent a lot of time in canada.i love it there! differences abound, but my favorite is how nicely i'm treated by virtually every person i meet. i can't wait til the covid is vanquished, so that i may visit again.also i believe america would not have it so good, without such an excellent neighbor to the north. peace!
Boston tea party was the begining of the revolitionary war...1775. Not 1812
thetick64 What doe the Boston Tea Party have to do with this video ? And you're wrong it was in Boston Massachusetts in Dec. 16 of 1773 and it. Was about taxation without representation ! Three years later we were a free nation, President George Washington served his Presidency in Fort Valley Forge because the White House was not built yet ! And there was no such thing as Democrats or Republicans they were Federalists, religion Mason's ...anything you'd like to learn about lol just kidding...
/whoosh
Thats what I thought
On August 24, 1814, after defeating the Americans at the Battle of Bladensburg, a British force led by Major General Robert Ross burned down multiple buildings, including the White House (then called the Presidential Mansion), the Capitol building, as well as other facilities of the U.S. government.
The rest of the world like Canadians
@Ankamtilnei Bekungbul well I certainly like Canada as country...
Not a Canadian btw. FYI.
And you are definitely a shithole of a person for talking like that about Muslims and gay people.
2019!!!!!
Wake the fuck up from your clouds of hate.
And change your fucking perspective about the world.
Being a teenager I just want more people to be empathetic and caring and kind...
So that I don't have to live in messed up world.
Or have to clean up mess of people older than me.. so that my future kids would atlest have a better one.
Before commenting something like that take in consideration that people get hurt by your remarks even if you are fucking nobody stranger. And they don't just have to be Muslims or Gay's.

@@noahbergman7777 so do most Americans
@@noahbergman7777 hell no I never want to see him again
“Americans don’t see much of a difference between the two countries”. Then again some Americans think we like in GOD DAM IGLOOS
There are differences but sometimes hidden. The one thing that really stands out for me when I'm in the US are campaign signs for DAs, judges and sheriffs. In Canada they are appointed, not elected.
... where did you even hear number eleven?
Literally everyone I know has Spotify.
I don't know where or when he heard it, nor what rock he's been living under for a century, but it isn't uncommon to hear a Spotify ad while your watching a video on TH-cam....heck, I got a Spotify ad during this video!
Quick note, I'm not sure about pandora but we have spotify and online shopping pretty much the same ( we basically have all the same stores ).
Gabriel Belzile I think you guys don't have Aeropostale anymore.
it's me girly girl Yeah, haven't heard of it so probably not.
We used to, but I never shopped there, so I don't know if there are any left, I do remember closing out sales a couple years back at a couple of malls.
Gabriel Belzile Vous avez parfaitement raison !
I think the difference is most of our online shopping with with companies that originated in America. We have online shopping but not a great deal of the companies that offer it started out as Canadian companies.
No spotify? I've had it for free 3 yrs now as a perk on my mobile account. I live in British Columbia. Also nobody here ever brags about the cold. Rarely snows here. Doesn't rain for 4 months in the summer. Kinda like California.
We like to rub it in on the rest of the country. And alot of the US
too.
Also on a side note, I have never heard any Canadian ever say "aboot". Only americans attempting to mock us say that.
Sammmeee it’s literally in between Cali and Oregon/Washington weather wise too!
Where I live in California there is no snow but lots of rain
Yeah I’ve never heard someone say *aboot*
Southern Albertan here, yeah. I don't have a clue why "Aboot" even came to be a stereotype for all of Canada, but I've only heard it in a small amount of places in the east.
Actually there is one Canadian TH-camr who does say aboot and it drives me insane every time I hear it
Coming from a Canadian, it hurts knowing that a lot of these "facts" about Canada are wrong, even in 2017
we have Spotify in Canada duh
Raymers IDK In America we also have Spotify
Raymers IDK вы говорите по русски?
jean-claude schwartz ??what
Raymers IDK we have spotify too in America.
Raymers IDK Duh
Dude this list is terrible!
Lived in Canada my entire life and have never seen "milk in a bag". We do have Pandora and Spotify, and we can order products online from Canadian and international companies. Some websites just do not ship to Canada, which is absolutely frustrating. And in western Canada, it's common for people to take their shoes off inside. Leaving them on would be weird/rude in fact
The bag milk is an easter Canada idea, mostly Ontario and Quebec. It's also an idiotic idea imo.
I heard bags of milk are only on the Eastern side, like Quebec. You might be living on the western side, like Alberta or British Columbia.
@@WupsYipee I have lived in British Columbia my entire life
@@WupsYipee yeah I have since learned it is more of an eastern Canadian thing. Still a bit strange to me though haha.
Milk came in bags when I lived in Montreal in the 60s. It was a PIA. In Alberta where I now live it comes in cartons, glass bottle, and plastic containers.
I watched this because I thought it might be a light, funny video....but it swung from inaccurate and slight offensive sweeping assumptions (didn't do much fact checking and some of these facts about Canada even contradict each other) to weird but accurate facts like taking our shoes off in the house...I think it's more weather-related and not wanting to drag mud and snow puddles through the house...lol
Please do more research before stating "facts"
@John Barber shut up man
Exactly.
one funny thing is, I'm Canadian and I watched the us election and know there government and talk about it a lot, but no one ever talks about Canadian government that I can tell.
can confirm. didnt even hear about your last election. ive heard more about the UK snap election
Joseph Fox yea the uk had the election during finals so collage and uni kids couldn't vote
Amarican politics are a meme at this point
Tori Lewis true only in schools
Tori Lewis yes we do!! didn't u just vote to leave the EU or something?
Does anyone else notice that he starts every point with "Canadians"
have you noticed that almost every point about Canada is negative?
It’s not a love hate relationship, yes we do have differences but we don’t hate them. We still love each other.
6:42 how are you gonna make this video if you haven’t been to Canada once🤣
Happy 150 b-day Canada btw I'm Canadian
Mr.Apple.Gaming. Fuck canada it's probably shit there
Yes but we use plastic bags rarely, we mostly use jugs
Well I live in Calgary Alberta
Hey same, I'm from southern Alberta.
As far as I know, hugs and cartons are more common in the western provinces, where I've never seen bagged milk, but in the eastern provinces, they have it the majority of the time.
we have spotify here what are u talking about?
し夜上 Canada has too smfh
straitoughtofcanada Ik that's what I'm talking about I live in Brampton and I have it wth
Yeah we got Spotify here lol
Oh sorry aboot that
し夜上 し夜上 hey neighbour... im just outside if Brampton in little ole Acton :)
And yes we have spotify .. i find most of what he is saying is bullshit. Hes certainly showing some ignorance.
I would agree with eleven but I listen to Spotify ever morning
Canadian: sips maple syrup
Americans: sips cholesterol
Australians: sips veggiemite
We have Spotify in Canada.
Indrid Cold Spotify is like a music library
It is not as "free" as in the US. Do YOUR research.
Drowning Utopia that was not the point made in the video
As an outsider I can point out that Canadians actually realise there is other countries out there... Americans seem to believe that they are the only country on Earth.
Christopher Greig no we acknowledge that one aisian country that makes our stuff the friendly people who give us oil the other aisian country that wants to nuke us and that lage communist country that hates us. (note this is a joke, I'm not trying to be racist it's a joke so any social justice warrior who attacks me, get a sense of humor that isn't laughing at the people you screwed over by acting offended)
really there are other countries?
before you get mad IT WAS A JOKE
Christopher Greig no
holy shit i thought the soviet union nuked the whole world but mexico and united states i never heard of canada
that is a very annoying stereotype I am a American I can map most of Europe and Asia
As a lifelong Minnesotan, I was thinking to myself how many of these things seem familiar to me and how we really weren't that different from Canadians. Once you got to #7 it started to make a bit more sense.
Yes the country with two languages is more conformative. That makes sense.
Canada has a lot more than two languages.
Dude...America has more than 2 languages such as German Spanish English Swedish Norwegian Japanese Chinese Dutch French and much more...
@@bldyvalentine5001 We also have many different languages in Canada.
The difference is that in Canada, both English and French are our official languages, so both are mandatory at school.
@@coralie288 same, except our 2 most spoken and official languages are English and Spanish.
@Eugen Oh, so nobody speaks in Canada, then? What the fuck do you think you're talking about?
We have Spotify in Canada. That one is a lie
Americans have an orange has a leader
No he's a creamsicle, orange on the outside white on the inside
Canada has Spotify
amanda.jenkins 1234 I have spotify...in America.
But Spotify over in America is more chill and has more features. The Spotify we have may be a different-with-less-features version.
i really really really doubt that
Canada, you wont see fights on buses or trains here!! lol
That's not entirely true. I live in Edmonton Alberta. We do have out fair share of fights on buses. Not often but when we do, they can be brutal. On December 9th 2009 a Edmonton Transit bus driver was brutally assaulted to the point his left eye was completely damage. The bus driver was dragged out of his seat and out of the bus and then kicked and punch repeatedly by the assailant. The assailant pleaded guilty and was sentenced to jail for the rest of his life as a dangerous offender.
Yes Canada is safer then the United States however brutal crime can happen here. The 2017 Edmonton attack was a stabbingand vehicle-ramming attack that occurred in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, on September 30, 2017. Edmonton police constable Mike Chernyk was allegedly hit and stabbed by 30-year-old Abdulahi Sharif, who then struck four pedestrians with a rental truck during a police chase. All four injured survived and were hospitalized. The incident is currently being investigated as a terrorist attack, with police confirming the presence of an Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant flag in the van that rammed the police officer. Then the Assailant got out of the van and repeatedly stabbed the Police Officer.
Extremely false. I've witnessed tons of fights on the bus and in the subway. Not proud of that, but... well, Toronto.
Hey ballads 1!
Your hockey players are your best fighters.
We do have Spotify and I’ve never heard a Canadian brag about how much it snows
As a Canadian I do not like this list. Some things are right, but others are either wrong or explained badly. Sorry
Most of the stuff he said is just bs. Should've consulted a Canadian before making this video..
A lot of people that make list like this are Americans that know just a little is about their country as the do ours
Agreed. So many things on this list are so far off. It came across like they are biased and generally misinformed
"or apologize"
As a canadian i would like to appologize for this man
As a Canadian, I have to disagree with some of what was said. firstly, in this video, many generalizations were made, with both countries, that are not entirely true. Canada is a mosaic of cultures, but they aren't separated, they are mixed in many different ways, but are also celebrated as individual. also, individuality is highly celebrated, but there is simply not as much of an emphasis on it. I do not know what its like in america, but i'm sure many of the same things can be said. One final thing, canadians don't talk about american politics as a pastime, we use it as the but of our jokes. ; ) :) ;)
oh, and also, Canadians don't bottle up our emotions. not really ever. yet another large scale generalization that applies only to a select few.
P.S. we have spotify
Im in Minnesota so i don’t really know what its like to live in America, Im basically in Canada.
Same with N. WISC. I am four hours or so from the border. We see alot of Manitoba licence plates in Duluth at Sam's Club. Soon to get a Cosco.

I have it on my phone.
I live on canada and I know a lot of people who dont like hockey. In fact there are only about 5 people in my class of 30 that like hockey.
Yep
That’s okay, not everyone has to like it. I’m American and I love it.
Shoes off in the house...BAM!
This is our secret screening test😆
I thought you said screaming test, till I reread the comment.
I live in Toronto I thought it was normal to have baged milk
Its is but its not. Its not "normal" to drink another mammal's milk. Almond milk has 4 times the calcium and is better for you
k hanna not to mention it tastes better
k hanna and isnt milk.
Cows milk isn't your milk - its for calves. Its not meant for us
We have milk in bags in the USA
Generally a not bad list. But you pulled #2 (haha) right out of your ass. Totally wrong.
I am not Neil , I am Canadian , I believe that Canadians are less trusting in government now .
Neil S the legalization of marijuana kinda threw us off
Well this was made in 2017
Hallelujah
Especially now with the new election
With Little Justin as Prime Minister there are fewer people who trust government in Canada
"Mayonnaise on everything.....Canadians, they live among us".....LOL, we can't joke all day until the sun goes down, but I couldn't think of better neighbors than the Canadians. We Americans benefit in so many ways from our Canadian brethren, probably more than they do from us. Most millennials probably couldn't tell you what NORAD is, or where most of the lumber to build American homes comes from. Canada bent over backwards on 911 to help get all our aircraft on the ground, and took care of our stranded citizens. The US-Canada border is only an imaginary line on the map the whole world should be jealous of.
It's Americans like you than keep us from writing off the whole country;)
We don;t put mayo on everything. That's England. Typical uneducated misinformed American.
I merely quoted a line from the movie "Canadian Bacon". You know full well I don't take those stereotypes seriously. Evidently you didn't read all of what I posted, which is pretty much an homage to our Canadian neighbors. For God's sake lighten up.
ive said it before, ill say it again. we are family, and family does nothing but piss each other off most the time. don't mean we don't love each other, and always got each others backs!
When you realize that pretty much everything said here isn't true 😂😂😂👌🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Jared Whieldon
Most of it is true lmaooo
I'm Canadian.
Rewa Khalife execpt for Spotify...........
So, Canada doesn't have 5 main parties that are less polarized than ours? That's a shame.
bewasome awsome
I did say "most."
I wonder where my spotify went.
I'm a proud Canadian!
These are INGREDIENTBLY true.
Oh and by the way... Milk in bags is the only way I've ever drank milk.
I’ve been to Canada a couple of times , I live in ny state and have been to Montreal and Niagara Falls on the Canadian side. I have to admit, I never really thought too much about Canada, I’ve been hearing about it more lately and learning that it is more than what I always viewed it to be.
Canada is very rich. Me as a person that lives in US, the majority of the people think that everything outside the country is poor and rough. There are cities in Canada and from around the world that are richer, cleaner and safer, than american cities.
I can't understand why Canadians are obsessed with American politics. Stick with what you know.
In Canadian geography classes we have to know all.of Canada's provinces, territories and capitals plus we have to memorize all 50 American states in about a week. Half the people I talk to in the USA know like 3 Canadian cities, maybe
I once said I was from New Brunswick and an American (some random person I was talking with at Legoland, I’m going to assume that they were from Florida) went “Oh really? European countries are so cool!”
I literally had a Maple leaf on my shirt. Like come on. I get if they don’t know NB, but saying it was a European country? Really?
What province did you grow up in seriously never had to memorize the states.
Yup. I suspect most Americans think Toronto is Canada's capital.
Ok most of these Canadian “facts” are wrong.

Over here in Canada "College" refers to community college.
Here,University is university.
Sort of true. I attended Loyola College in Montreal but my degree is from the University of Montreal because Loyola did not have degree granting status. Loyola and Sir George Williams university merged to become Concordia university which does have degree granting status and doctoral programs.
You were right on some but you were really wrong on some we have Spotify
as a Canadian i have no bond or loyalty to the british crown.
Nor do the British. Ironically Americans tend to pay more attention to them
We think about the british or Canadians bro we know you all exist you guys just never slip our minds we do think about Britain more though
jake jones you would think being the queen of so many places would earn you the title empress
Over glorified celebrities....
johnny dark ya kinda do. like here in the USA we have
1 president love him or hate him, he's our president. respect the office...not the person.
"In American, talking about American politics is taboo; in Canada, it's a pastime."
Love it!
We still can't dodge politics. It's everywhere, and debates get heated.
Seona Elizabeth Coster you can't go anywhere in America anymore without the subject of our President coming up. Like him or hate him that one doesn't make any sense.
funny cus its true
Seona Elizabeth Coster At this point, I think it's an international pastime
Us people got to emet it there politics are really entertaining
Americans are missing out on Tim Hortons. Also were's my Canadian family at?
Where I live in Canada has a very extreme climate it goes from +35 summers down to -35 winters.
I think one thing Canadians love about the US is that half the country has mild or actually warm winters, and those Southern states are more than happy for Canadians to come for the winter. I think my assumption is correct, but I live in Illinois, and most of the time I lived in Chicago suburbs(brrr!). I'm happy Canadians will finally be allowed to visit US starting tomorrow 11/8. Concerning COVID, they're probably safer to be around than other Americans.
Centigrade or Fahrenheit? Only joking.
Same here. I live in Edmonton.
The one about Canadians being into American politics is totally true lol
well we don't have a messed up government which means it is less entertaining, we are into US politics because one it is like a comedy show and two we don't get harmed as much as the Americans do.
Indeed
Reese is Random
As a person who lives In America, I can see why, our government in like a joke and an amazing comedy show 😂😂
Arash Khazaie Yeah Donald Trump is wack😂 I’m American and love my country but I get what you saying.
@@ArashK9 As an American, I can't argue with what you said. Down here everything has been politicized, at least in recent years. As a young child(71 now) the presidents I first remembered were named Eisenhower and Kennedy, and things seemed to work much better. For example country was united on finding a polio vaccine, as opposed to politicizing it like were doing with COVID.
Number 11 is half wrong, we do get Spotify and it is legal.
Luci Swaffield thank you I was gonna say that.. tbh he got a few things wrong.
Canada has Spotify 😂😂😂 has for years.... aaand thank god for that.
We have a lot of Pandora’s in Canada and we also have Spotify that’s just not true at all
Hannah Angus I am a Canadian and I have never seen a pandora in Canada in my life. That’s probably because I live on PEI there is not even a Starbucks in my city I have to drive like 2 hours to get to the closest Starbucks 😂
4:43 Quebec is definitely NOT Canada's Texas politically
Not politically but if you speak of nationalists then they can be pretty similar.
On a side note, I'm from Quebec and when I went to Toronto I was surprised how almost everything was translated in French as well. I remember my way back to home to Quebec: First, tons of English & French billboards. Second, as we cross the border, signs in French *exclusively*. They even renamed the previously named "Arrêts-stops" into a monolingual name. I feel pretty ashamed of my province, seeing how every others around us seem to go so far to accommodate us and we respond by blatantly spitting on them.
Toukan Yeah ...weirdly Texas is VERRY Liberal in Austin, Dallas (where I live), and a couple other places. We don't have southern accents and we are just people.......When my school did a "class" vote for president Hillary 79% Trump 21%
First Last I LIVE IN QUEBEC!!!!!
I'd think Newfoundland & Labrador are the Texas of Canada since it was a country like Texas. Though it was a British dominion.
We do have Spotify and pandora. And most stores in Canada have online shopping
Number 2 is so wrong... there’s websites and online shopping for almost everything lmao
I am Canadian. I once saw a car on the highway with a State of Florida Licence Plate on the back carrying a bunch of skis on the top of their car. I wouldn’t have found it so damn hilarious if it wasn’t summertime.
Yeah !! I heard they think we have snow all year around!! Lol
Im Canadian and most of these are false.
Edit: HOLY SHIITTT this is the most amount of likes i have ever gotten. Eh?
TheCanadianMoose HD I know right this guy has no clue what he’s talking about
Us citizens usually don’t know anything about Canada.
Canadians and Americans all have no roots and culture. they have no to much of differences.
I agree I am one too and some are fake eh
He did say Canadians deny when they have problems, and darned if that isn't exactly what you guys are doing.
I think about Canada all the time! I love Canada like a brother to our US!
It's like the biggest and most peaceful brothership ever. If the US gets attacked, its allies, including Canada will fight back, and if anybody lays a finger on Canada, the US (and allies) will cream the attackers.
PIE ww3 would start if Canada was attacked
Levi Godwin and this Canadian has much love and respect for my American brothers and sisters.... I grew up on the Saskatchewan/North Dakota border and actually married a woman from Alabama... She's a crazy bitch and we're divorced now, but I still love y'all. :)
I think about Canada all the time? Dude, you need to get a life!
You should just educate yourself on the culture and products we exchange with Canada. GG
EVERYONE THINKS WE ONLY LIKE HOCKEY, LACROSSE IS OUR NATIONAL GAME AND ITS LONELY
Hello Canada friend you must be shivering but I’m not I’m in America and I like lax too
Bella Merica friend
I remember going and everywhere me and my mom went like to peoples houses they always made us take off our shoes and I would try to listen to certain songs and I couldn’t now I know why
As a Canadian I can say almost all of these are not true at all
J'onn O'Ryan Ditto as an American
Totally!
So true! I asume you're canadian and so am i. Im from Quebec,Montreal and i've always asked myself...do you guys (the rest of Canada) hate Quebec?
I used to live in Cherive when I was a kid (Forgive me if I misspelled that, it's French after all)
I have lived in every region of Canada and these are all mostly true
I would love to see the research behind this video. As a duel-citizen to both Canada and the U.S I find this extremely inaccurate...
Crispy Cream is it hard being a citizen of Atlantis? 😆
Both countries have their issues, but at the end of the day they are both in my opinion some of the greatest countries on earth. Greetings from Canada(Newfoundland)
I am a lifelong U.S citizen and we used to get bag mike at grandmas from a local Upper Michigan farm.
Canadians tend to like their government ? Obviously don't live in Ontario we're kinda hating the government right now
Kanna Kui I visit Windsor a lot.
Kanna Kui dont like trudeau
The liberals and conservatives take turns fucking everything up. I don't like either party. They're both corrupt to the core. Having lived in Ontario my entire life, I've seen the consistent bad sides of both parties and have always expressed resentment towards our supposed leadership. I went and saw Trudeau a few months ago and it never failed to amaze me how he and other Canadian politicians do everything they can to not answer the question at hand. I don't like my government. Fuck Trudeau, fuck Harper, fuck Wynne, fuck all of them!
I thought it was only us westerners in Canada who hated Trudeau. I don't HATE him, but I think he's a bit of a goof. But it's nice to know that we're not sticks in the mud. I was very surprised when the guy in the video said Quebec was the Texas of Canada....I'm pretty sure it's Alberta with our oil, big truck douchebags, country lifestyle, two big cities, etc....
Kanna Kui We don't like Trudeau either in Quebec
Happy Canada 150 to my Canadian bros!
AJ Jina YES 150TH YEARS OF CANADA!!!!! WE ARE NOW ABLE TO GET A MEW TWO AS A PET!!!!!!!
Ayyy happy 150th!
AJ Jina happy 150th!
Happy 150 boi!
Is it just me or I might be wrong but considering most stuff about Canada is very wrong I think he’s American🤔
Also we do have Spotify so your wrong about that sorry I meant aboooooot
Number 10 is a lie I live in Canada and we are able to use them
Jesus, just take your shoes off at the door. WE DONT WANT DIRT IN HERE OUR PARENTS JUST MADE US CLEAN THE DAMN FLOORS!
BlockWorldStudio Z so teue
I take off my shoes. We're supposed to. I'm from America and we don't wear shoes everywhere. At least I don't.
Zero Hour oh I guess some parents make there kids/teen/adult
Alina Elzanaty OOF. It's 5AM right now.
Welp add ig : aj_kister and sc: aj-k1.
I have lived in Canada for all my life and Spotify has always been here
No it hasn't. Lol. I didnt have it in the 70s 80s 0r 90s.
I'm an Asian Canadian and if I see someone walking in my house with their shoes on, Imma pull out the belt
