I think you didn't include sth very important. Perhaps it is because you are in Korea and people use the metric system and you could quickly understand -50 degrees and 2 meters. People from the States usually have no idea what I'm talking about, so I have to tell them something like 86 degrees in the summer and 6 feet of snow in the winter. When you cross the land border you also have to pay attention to the speed limit signs. They look the same in both the US and Canada, but it's in km/h in Canada. So when you see "speed limit 55" on a highway it feels strange.

You know, this was an enjoyable video. I think most of us, Canadians and Americans, have been around long enough to tell the difference between the two of us. When you compare us, the differences are quite small when you make similar comparisons with other people in the world. Even our common parent country, the UK, is much more different, but not that much when you continue the comparisons with all the nations of the world. These comparisons are fun, but when the rubber meets the road, I trust these two countries, along with Australia and New Zealand more than any other nations. When I was younger, I had served in the USN and seriously considered the RCN when I got out. To me, I would have continued serving with my brothers.

I didn't read any comments about languages or culture. In Québec, (around 8M people) French is the official language. In New-Brunswick French and English are two official languages and the 8 other provinces I don't know if the have an official language, if so, it's English. Canada as a country has the two official languages. It's the reason why we have bilingual writing on everything we buy in any store. And we use the metric system like all other countries in the world. Cultural aspect is also a difference between Québec and other provinces. The fact of speaking French makes it so that our writers, our songs, our theater, our cuisine, our artists, our TV and radio shows aren't all english translations of the same that is in USA. They aren't France french neither. To my knowledge, Québec is the only place in all of North America where French is spoken by the majority of it's population.

There are way more similarities between Americans and Canadians than there are differences. For example, the U.S. has more regional differences within the country than it does overall with Canada. Americans are also more direct, honest, individualistic and straightforward whereas Canadians are more passive-aggressive, collectivist, roundabout and introverted! … This probably goes back to the history of both countries where the U.S. was a rebellious British colony that defeated the British Empire and became a fully independent nation way back in 1776 whereas Canada remained loyalist and remained a part of the British Empire.

When Sydney wonders why Canada has less immigration than the US, she's thinking in terms of absolute numbers. The US gets about 3 times as many immigrants as Canada does overall (but it has 9 times the population). So, if you look at the numbers on a per capita basis, Canada has an immigration rate that is triple that of the US. Canada's high immigration rate is why the population keeps growing (we'd actually have a stagnant or slowly shrinking population otherwise).

Canadian reacting! (Born in British Columbia, west-most province; living in Newfoundland, east-most province and an island) 1. We're not the same! Lol. We're more chill about everything. Always sorry, not very patriotic... 2. Same question? 3. I was working in retail when they started changing the bills from paper to plastic. Fun fact, many retail store cash offices don't count large amounts of bills by hand, we let machines do it. Some have bill counters that mechanically flip through them like a card shuffler but mine did it by weight. When I was trained on it we separated paper from plastic because they have different weights. At first there was a formula we had to plug into a calculator to adjust the plastic count for the weight difference and then the machine got a software update. 4. "Aboot" is a very specific region of Canada and it's not either of my provinces. It's mostly Ontario, I think. 5. Just don't call ours states! I don't mind as much if foreigners don't know the difference between a province and a territory. 6. Canada has like 3 big cities and then everything else 😅 I grew up just outside of Vancouver, which is densely packed, and then I moved to Newfoundland. The population of the whole island part of Newfoundland is pretty much just the metropolitan region of Vancouver by itself. 7. In January of 2020 over here in Newfoundland we had "Snowmaggedon." Once in a century storm that shut down the province for 3 days in the less-dense areas, a whole week in St. John's. My husband kept the side door (more sheltered) somewhat dug out during the storm so we could get out after. We had to shovel out way around the house and dig out the front door because it was completely buried. The drifts of snow up against the front of our house was half-way up out bedroom windows on the second floor. And busing? I didn't get my driver's license growing up in BC because I was in the Vancouver area and transit was great. Then I moved to Newfoundland. There isn't a bus system in my town. 8. Bagged milk hasn't been a thing outside of Ontario & Quebec since the 80s. Mom says we still had it when I was a little girl but I don't recall ever seeing bagged milk in person. 9. In Newfoundland it probably won't snow in August. Also we get icebergs in May-July.

@paranoidrodent2 жыл бұрын
@@StephenYuan The Canadian constitution was intentionally drafted in such a way as to avoid overlapping jurisdiction between the national and provincial level. The reason for that is simple. The first document, that outlines that division of powers, was written about two years after the end of the US Civil War and the founding fathers of Canada were pretty horrified at the idea of a national vs sub-national dispute leading to civil war. The British North America Act was crafted with the lessons of the US Civil War very fresh in everyone's mind and tried, for better or for worse, to create an alternative federal structure that would avoid such strife. Also, the colonies (soon to be provinces) negotiating the deal were loathe to give up any more power to a federal government than necessary. As a result, Canada has no doctrine of federal primacy. In some ways, American states have greater autonomy but in other ways, Canadian provinces have far greater autonomy (because the feds literally have no legal right to legislate regarding a hell of a lot of important stuff). It's probably safer to say that in the US, the areas of jurisdiction tend to overlap more while in Canada they tend to be more distinct. It's far more common for Canadian courts to throw out parts of federal or provincial legislation as ultra vires (outside that government's jurisdiction) than it is in the US, essentially ruling that that government simply has no authority to legislate on that subject. Marriage and divorce are a federal jurisdiction in Canada, btw. It's the formalization of marriage and the property rights stuff that is provincial. The net result is a little funny and one of the situations where federal and provincial powers interact a lot. So the feds define what a marriage is, who can have one, and how it can end. That avoids weirdness like one province refusing to recognize marriages from another. The provinces decide on how marriage ceremonies work and how all the stuff and kids gets sorted out during divorces and such.

I knew someone from Boston who was talking about the winter weather there. They thought they knew snow and cold, until they spent one winter in Calgary (Alberta, Canada.) Even with Calgary getting periotic warm spots (Chinook winds that jump the temperature by +30C in a few hours, so from -10C to +20C) they were so surprised by actual cold and snow. A few times, for many days or weeks long, it will stay at -20C or even -30C. At times there will be multiple days of -38C in the day and -45C at night. And snow. A foot of snow is a light day. 6 feet of snowfall (in just 1-3 days) is a "few times per winter" event. Snow starts in late October, by November it is staying around without breaks. Snow lasts until April or May.
@calvinrovinescu61662 жыл бұрын
Calgary actually usually doesn't get that much snow compared to some other Canadian and some American cities, it just had such a large window of the year it can happen. It's not often there will be snow excess of a foot in one storm. What does happen is seemingly nonstop snow for days that doesn't accumulate very quickly and a week or two of -20 in an otherwise very erratic cycle of freezing and thawing throughout the rest of the winter. Usually permanent ground covering snow starts in mid to late November and ends around the beginning of March and anything outside of that window melts quickly. This year we had totally bare ground by just before valentines day because January was so nice as it often can be.

Differences in geography, immigration, urbanization, etc., can make states different even if they are right next to each other or in the same region.
