As the three British dominions who were dominions for a long period of time, Canada, Australia and New Zealand have massive parallels in political history and cultural institutions. As a Canuck, I've found that Aussies and Kiwis were kindred spirits to us in attitude and mindset. We might sound more like Americans and share more pop culture with them, but we have nearly identical systems of government and public institutions to Australia and New Zealand. We three resemble each other even more than we all resemble the UK. Americans sound more like us but Aussies think more like us.
In my experience, Canadians, Australians & New Zealanders usually get along great! We're definitely 3 of the most similar countries out there. I've spoken to Kiwis who were visiting who said it took them barely any time to adjust to being in Canada.
I'm a bias Canadian and I don't tolerate heat so I'd definitely stick with living in Canada, also Australia has way creepier spiders and other creepy bugs. However I've always said Australia and Canada are actually more similar than people seem to think, which is probably why I know many Canadians who did university in Australia and loved it and vise versa.
Well I certainly can't argue with that and hey everyone will be a bit bias! However you're 100% correct, with both having large British influence and being large reproduce rich countries, the end result certainly seems to be similar. So I'm glad to hear people enjoyed! :)
@@BanterSage ya I live in Mississauga so I know that heat and I hate it. Don't get me wrong I love that it's sunny but it gets way to hot and humid for me, I prefer temps in high teens low twenties. That's why I prefer spring and fall when we get them. I'm not a fan of snow and the lack of sun in winter but the temperature doesn't bother me. But I know I'm not the norm, and I like that we have seasons.
I'm with you about the heat. I hate it. I live in Saskatchewan & I'll take the winter weather over summer weather any day
@@BanterSage here in Saskatchewan we've just had a cold spell of between -25 & almost -30 before the wind chill as a daytime high. I'll take that over +30. I have family a little east of Vancouver & apparently they were at -10 about a week ago
@@BanterSage B.C sure has had quite the year last year that's for sure
Fun fact with that Aus vs. Can... Upon "creating" Canada in 1867, there was a poll on the new country's name. One on the finalist was "Borealia" in opposition to "Australia". "Boreal-" meaning North and "Austral-" meaning South.
You clearly don't know what you are talking about. Stop making up your own "fun facts". Here are all the names . And, that was only a small part of Canada at the time.
@@NovaSupernova That is not a made up "fun fact". For you information Borealia was one of the considerations for the name of the country. Before you accuse someone of something, make sure you have your own information accurate.
I'm Canadian and Australians are the most similar when it comes to our humour, the way we look at the world. They feel like cousins with way better weather
As a Canadian, I must say, we do love Australians. Lovely people :)
I think the school years thing is misleading, since Canada has the highest percentage of University grads in the world. still, Australia sounds like a good place to spend winter, except it's your summer, and I'd roast. LOL
As a Canadian, I always consider Australia as our sister country. Australia may be the largest island in the world, but Canada does have the largest island in the world surrounded by fresh water. A interesting stat to look at, how many Canadians live in Australia vs Australians living in Canada. I know a lot of people that move to Australia to get their teachers degree. I know when it comes to a teaching degree, both countries have some of the highest standards and qualifications in the world. thanks for the vid, i enjoyed watching your reaction.
Australians run the ski hills in Canada , Tons of Australians get working visas and work on the Ski resorts ,
Ha, yes I've have heard that before, and that's because everyone says "anywhere else has better snow than Aus"
I live in Montreal and have always seen Australia as a beautiful peaceful and similar country way over on the other side of the Earth. Every time there’s a map showing some statistic about life, people, the global economy or whatever I immediately look to Australia to make sure we’re similar and then I know all’s well with my world 😆. It most often is. I hope I get to visit there someday, it’s a loooong voyage away...
Hey i'm from Montreal too, but I never realized how similar both country are. It's impressive to see those statistics. And one of my dream is to visit the Australia Zoo (Steve Irwin's Zoo), but yes, it's a long and expensive trip
Australia and Canada are the National equivalents to kindred spirits. Just spent the day watching you shower Canada with affection, so thought I'd let you know that the feeling is mutual.
I wouldn't underestimate our desert landmass though, Australia comes in with a total of 1,355,000km² of desert but Canada's north features 1,420,000 km² of arctic tundra. Canada has massive desert area, just like Australia, we just freeze ours to preserve them.
The most important stat though, is that I've never met an Australian I didn't like. Can't think of many countries I can say that about. Maybe India. (The Colonies! What can I say?)
I'm Canadian and the only thing that really sucks about Australia is all the deadly snakes and spiders.
Man it's so refreshing watching someone who seems to actually enjoy and geek out over statistics and learning something new. Great video man.
Cheers, glad you enjoyed :)
The west coast of Canada is geographically similar with Norway. Lots of fjords and an archipelago of 40,000 islands. Then there are the 1000 Islands in the St. Lawrence River, and all the Arctic islands.
Don't know if you have reacted to it but check out the video "Canadians change when the hear the word war". Great video.
There is also another video on the countries who have not "lost" a war. Obviously including Canada and Austrailia.
Although A Canadian, I lived in Sydney Australia in the mid-sixties and travelled to all the states except Hobart. Loved the beer and beaches. Came back to Canada to go to university. Both countries have much of their area covered by deserts. Australia's is a hot desert, Canada's is a cold desert if average rainfall, extreme temperatures and little plant growth are considered.
Remember- when you are dealing with Statistical Obesity in a country that these numbers will be including a very large majority of "power" sport athletes - for example in the US - over 60% of the NFL are statistically obese.
A Rugby player standing 5'10" (177.8 CM) weighing 15 Stone / 210 Lbs / 95.3 kg is statistically obese.
I'm not saying that people aren't overweight, I'm saying that the statistics are shocking because there is truly a difference between being medically obese and statistically obese.
NFL have big fat players they ate called offensive and defensive lines. Need heavy people for that. But the receivers Qb running backs safety etc are all fit. You look at the NBA and NHL. No fat players.
@@mjor6406The Laugh is - according to the AMA BMI Chart - if you are 6'0 and 225# you are statistically obese.
If you are 6'5 and 255# - you are statistically obese -
if you are 6'10, they'll give you 295# before they call you obese.
It has nothing to do with body fat percentage - just straight up height vs weight.
The 23 years of School Life Expectancy including tertiary education (dip, undergrad, postgrad, phd). It means an Aussie is expected to receive a total of 23 years of education (the video used the term 'schooling' which probably made it confusing). While a Canadian is expected to receive only a total of 16 years of education.
Well. I CAN'T live at anything hotter than 30*C, but I LOVE snow and winter. So I live in Canada and would like to visit Australia 4 months out of the year. But I'll stick with Cuba for now. MUCH cheaper and closer.
Fair enough! Of course everyone gets accustomed to a certain temperature range making it more tolerable, but some of the winters I've seen in cold climates just don't seem like my cut of tea... In saying that though, I've heard great things about would love to visit! :)
@@OJBReacts What can I say. You learn to handle the cold. It's just a matter of wearing the right clothes. But you CAN'T carry an A/C on your back in the heat.
This summer, a LOT of people died here in B.C, our warmest province, because of the heat (45*C+), mixed with humidity and air that was filled with forest fire particles in some places. Global warming just took a sudden sharp turn last year.
I think I'm sticking with colder regions for a while. Healthier, and Safer.
All fair points. I guess I never considered colder places to have that large of a temperature range and get temperatures that high! Either way both can certainly bad for your health if unconditioned or at least a little inconvenient...
But we get hotter then 30 Celsius in the parts of the province of British Columbia it hit 49 Celsius , or 121 f, , Also
I'm Canadian and I hope to visit Oz one day. Oz looks amazing.
I'm Canadian, and I know some retired Canadian and Australian military boys and they used to tell me what fun it was to get a Yank drunk!! Can't handle their liquor... Lol. It's a joke!
It’s a lousy joke because the USA is better than Canada in pretty much everything and that’s why the USA is the leader of the free world and Canada is just insignificant!
I do have Aussie friends and I can honestly say outlooks and attitudes are practically the same. There are differences of course but nothing major. A Canadian could move to Australia or an Aussie move to Canada and neither would suffer much culture shock.
Of course a Canadian would need to learn how to drive on the wrong side of the road. 🙄
And the Aussie would have to learn to survive the winter season! 😂
Two things Canadians hate is when people call our country "America jr" or "British North America".
On the other hand "Cold Australia" we happily accept.
😂 No one cares!… Just be happy that the USA is your next door neighbor!
Australia has deserts, Canada has toundra (which is just a very cold desert really since there’s no trees in toundra)
I love Australia and Canada both equally
I really enjoyed your videos and comments and learning more about the world
2 Countries that everyone want to travel or want to live. Amazing.
7:29 id actually be very curious to see the answer to this, considering our northern arctic tundra is classed as desert
I m Canadian who lived downunder for 10 years .and i miss it. I dont do cold well at all. Loved the beach and rainforest. Maybe some day i can go back down .
Find it super interesting that the school life expectancy is so much higher in AU, but the GDP growth rate is slower, very curious as to why
We're both siblings of the Commonwealth but I think that Canadians are more like Kiwis in our temperments because, even though we're bigger and more populous than Australia, we're stuck next to a neighbour that is impossibly larger than we are, just like New Zealand.
Love your vibe and the video!
It doesn't even need to be said again, you could just read the rest of the comments. But still, Canadians wholeheartedly love Australia
Hey buddy! My names Drake from Cape Breton Island, Canada!
I’ve been watching so many Aussie channels and you guys just seem so similar!
Love to get together for a beer some day haha, or maybe some Canadian whiskey
Great video and loved your commentary. I'm Canadian and visited Oz a few times when I lived in Asia. Loved every trip and when I couldn't get home, visitig Oz felt like getting close by going to "Hot Canada."
There are two vital topics these videos skip over, super relevant to both our countries and where we are similar in one but really diverge in the other:
1. Diversity/Multiculurlaism/Integration: Here our countries diverge significantly. Both are diverse, but diversity (numbers) is only one of the aspects here. A policy of multiculturalism is enshrined in our Constitution and Canada self-descibes as a multicultural, bilingual country of 3 founding nations (British, French, Aboriginal). Integration is most easily observed via amount of segregaton (geographical, social, economic). An Aussie friend pointed this out to me recently when he saw our federal Cabinet--11 Canaidan Cabinet members are non-White; Australia's, 1. This blew me away. That lack of diversity at the top level of government just wouldn't happen here and you'd probably have to go back to the 70s to see it.
2. The other obvious topic is relationship with our respective First Peoples. We both have similarly awful histories here. I don't see enough Aussie TV to compare, but Canadian state TV/radio dedicates a lot of time to promotion of Aboriginal culture, history and inclusion of Indigenous actors in shows. Our current GG (Queen's Rep!) is an Inuk woman. And while this might not be a novelty to happen to with our mutual cousin New Zealand, this is still a very new thing in Canada but TBH I cannot see a Native Australian or Torres Straits Islander being appointed GG any time soon.
Anyways, 2 important aspcets for our countries I don't think we can afford to overlook. Thanks for the vid again!
Another fact not mentioned is part of Canada lays further south than the northern border of California.
Very cool content!) As a Vancouver native, I would say that our common colonial mentality is closer than any two countries...especially beer and bbq... Cheers mate!)
The last statistic on military strength. I agree with you, how do you really measure that? Canada has the best pilots in the world and Canada trains Israeli pilots. Canada doesn't have the best equipment when it comes to war but if you need intelligence, and a way to get out of a bad situation you call Canada.😉👍 We got your back!
The Big Mac index was created by The Economist magazine as a way of comparing the relative exchange rate of currencies and cost of living by comparing the local prices of a of a standard commodity sold around the world - McDonalds' Big Mac, something that is supposed to be the same whether you buy one in Toronto or Sydney.
I'm Canadian and spent a year in Australia after university in the early 1980s, and came within a whisker of staying (my visa was expiring and needed a sponsor - the day after I got back to Toronto, my roommate in Melbourne called with a mssg from the Victoria planning department.....
One thing I never understood was why Canada and Australia didn't have closer ties, in so many ways Australia felt much more like Canada than the the US ever has.
Terry Fox (from one of your Heritage Minutes video) is a national icon in Canada. Starting by dipping his artificial leg in the Atlantic, he set out with a van, his brother and a friend he set out to run across Canada to the Pacific soliciting donations along the way. Initially there was little fanfare but as he progressed, publicity and the crowds grew, by the time he got to Toronto, he hundreds of thousands cheering him on, when the news that his cancer had returned and he was forced to give up his "Marathon of Hope" Canadians from coast to cost were devastated and his death was mourned across the country.
For video's on Canadian wildlife, look for "Hinterland Who's Who", sort of the same as "Heritage Minutes" Also of interest on TH-cam, the movie "A Place to Stand", created for the Ontario Pavilion at Expo 67 (I remember the chairs in the Australian Pavilion were very cool to an 11 year old in1967 - they had speakers built into the headrest), a precursor to IMAX (a Canadian invention) and "North of Superior", the first IMAX film produced for the original IMAX theatre here in Toronto. Both are now dated, but still interesting.
Most info makes sense, except for the schooling years, doesn’t Canada have the highest percentage of adults that have post secondary degrees in the world?
Canada's population is 38,511,099 now as of October 31st, 2022
I, love your Vid's !!! very informative & great teaching lessons for all.. But Please & I say this Politely & with Respect to you, :)), please wait till the particular segment is over, as it's hard to hear the Info, given, when you talk at the same time as it is being given )) .. All the Very Best to You !!!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed. Hopefully my more event vids are better! :)
When I think of Canada and Australia, I don't think of them as similar. But this was interesting.
Im from Canada im proud of my country im from the provence of Ontario Canada
As for military, Canada also boast 2 special ops units and also the number one sniper school in the world.
Your numbers are incorrect.
Canada has 4 special operations units.
CSOR
CJIRU
JTF2
427 SOAS
😂 Canada is a joke and snipers are cowards!
I know someone who went to a beach in Australia
Similar to your statement
I know someone who went skiing in Canada
As a Canadian I've always kind of wanted to live in Australia. My mother was born in Scotland and she almost moved to Australia when she was 5 but moved to Canada instead. I'm just tired of snow and want me some sun... But I dont like heat that much so I'd probably cho0se to live in Tasmania because I gather it's not as hot.
Sounds like you at least have to try and visit sometime... Tasmania is the only state I haven't been to but I've only heard great things about it!
A good laugh based on 5he size of canada is a song called " Canada is really big" by the arrogant worms.
California has a bigger population and GDP than Canada.
Despite having nearly 10 million fewer people, Texas and Canada have the same GDP.
California, Texas, New York & Florida all have bigger GDPs than Canada or Australia!
In Canadian kids history and geography we are taught that Australia is basically our Southern Hemisphere sister
I felt suffocated when you are talking. lol
The waterfront with the joggers is in Manhattan NYC USA!!!
they r similar in alot of ways biggest difference is aus is surrounded by warm waters/beaches and we are a frozen wasteland for 5 months,come here in summer then its greatest place
I'm surprised Canada doesn't have a bigger population considering it borders the USA. If I was from USA I'd migrate north to get away from the madness
I would say that while on the surface Canada seems like a great place to live compared to the US, we do generally have less job opportunities and earning potential than our neighbours making Americans reluctant to move here and other potential immigrants reluctant to choose Canada over the US.
Not everyone can handle Canadian winters also lol.
Americans can't just move here... they would have to qualify to immigrate and mos do not.
If they're looking to leave madness, then moving here would be a massive mistake. They'd be better off just staying in the US and moving to somewhere like Florida, or Texas.
Stay in the US neighbours! The “land of the free and home of the brave” is so true. We do not enjoy true freedom of speech here in Canada. Here “disagree” equates to “hate”. I live near the border and every time one of those giant military planes flies over my house ( we live near a US ANG base) I feel a whole lot more secure. The US has it’s warts but….so do we.
Most Canadians live along the U.S. border because that is the warmest part of Canada!… The rest of Canada is like Alaska or worse!
Canada was actually like third least densely populated like a decade or two ago but we grew
actually, recently the canadian population was boosted to 40m due to refugees and immigration.
Have lived in both!!! Rather live in Canada and visit Australia!
Other similarities: both belong to HM The Queen of England...👑 both have natives peoples... both have dangereous animals (Koalas 🐨 and Wolverines 🐺-lol)... both have forest fires 🔥😓...
Should have compared Hockey skills.
Best wishes Australia.
Canada just crossed the 40 million population mark.
Canadian not an insect lover. Australia scares me!
I always love this two country greeting from india
good video well done
All those islands at the top of Canada are not populated it’s all under ice and snow
Ahh of course. Still adds to the country however! :)
So is the center of Australia. Too hot and dry.
If you look at population distribution there's an odd but similar quirk with these 2 countries. 90% of Canadians live within 100 miles of the US border, and I believe 80% of Australians live within 100 miles of the coastline.
ONE BIG DIFFERENCE.....Australia is one big desert and Canada is one big forest with millions of lakes
True! Canada has lots of trees and fresh water lakes!!
@@noelgenoway9360 Canada takes the cake for the country with the most lakes in the world. In fact, Canada contains more lakes than the rest of the world combined.
Also as the global demand for freshwater steadily increases, Canada seems to be in a privileged position: it holds 20 per cent of the world's freshwater supply and nine per cent of the world's renewable freshwater resources.
Every winter every Canadian will have this one thought
"The air hurts my face, why do I live in a place, where the air hurts my face."
I’m from Cape Breton Nova Scotia Canada
I'm learning English and you talk soooo fast, 😂😂😂😂 that's funny for me
Happy new year, coming from Canada’s capital!
We have one thing in common, idiotic politicians.
Love
Went on a trip to Banff Alberta and was blown away to find that almost all of the shopping and restaurant employees were Australian.
So Countries can shrink now lovely
Canada has lots of coves and inlets!
You win the BBQ war because we put the BBQs away during the winter :)
My family and I have always bbq all year around. Clean the snow off the bbq all the time. Lol everyone in my small town has always bbq all year around. I just thought all Candians do? Lol
Lol speak for yourself. As a Canadian living in Ontario, Alberta, and BC throughout my lifetime, I BBQ all through the year. Through snow, cold or rain. Course I would love to experience an Australian bbq. I have always thought of Australians as part of the family. New Zealanders are definitely also included. Great bunch of people. Some of the nicest people around the globe.
wtf, we still use our BBQ during winter... And without any bugs ^^
I wouldnt classify australia as gigantic...especially when you use the term for Canada...
New Zealand: Aye!
Fantom is the next Ethereum
Fantom FTM
You are a sharp cookie.
Some silence is Golden!
I thought I had the volume at double speed there, for a second until the other guy started talking. Are you trying to get as many words per second in as possible?
I am shocked Aussies are as overweight! Canadians have winter weather and we stay in side for 4 months of the year.
One piece of trivia, Canada and The USA share the Longest Undefended border in the world.
Come here. The C.N Tower has a restaurant that revolves. No shit.
Andrew. Vancouver Island.
Fun fact. California State has a larger population than Canada
Canadians and Australian are both great at hockey 😉
But Canada better
What great australian hockey player is there?
Most Canadians know someone who attended school in Australia, or au paired, or did a year of work experience. My aunt did her surgical fellowship there. We are very similar people. I’d love to visit Australia, but I couldn’t live there, only because I’d miss the winters too much, and lately your country has seemed a little…racist. Sorry.
Would have been nice to actually hear what they were talking about
Man, does everybody in Oz have a Masters and a PhD? 23 years school life? Wow.
We do not say yeah
Constructive criticism. Slow down, you sound like you're in fast forward. Plus talking over the narration makes it hard to hear either one of you. Thanks for video tho.
Slow down buddy ,you speak way to fast.. Can't even understand what you're saying
I was about to say the same thing. It's like his voce is double speed lol And he talks over the narration too much.
Is this Australia's national auctioneer
2 million lakes !!!
Amusant.
You missed the main difference. Canada is #1 in being the most educated country on the planet, and Australia is #7. US, by the way is #6.
There's more people living in California than in Canada
Have you ever noticed that Canadians pronounce words far more clearly than this Australian.
I just thought he spoke really fast
Australia has the 55th largest population. Yeah. Out of 195 countries. So a LARGER population than a mere .. uh .. 140 countries. Yeah.
As someone from Canada I always concidered Australia the warmer version of Canada honestly
Canada borders 3 oceans.
Australia, just a smaller Canada with much cooler animals, and you trade freezing to death for skin cancer. Lets all move to New Zealand LOL
