Actually, no.  Being an American myself, I can tell you at least from my experience that the people I know think of Canada as our neighbors to the north.  Canada is just like America, only you guys got it right, while we continue to spiral down into a pit of despair.  A friend of mine recently moved to Canada and I'm actually quite jealous of the things that are better in Canada.  Being an American, he sees and doesn't take for granted what you guys have up there.

Canadians are part of the Commonwealth and so have common laws and morals with England and all the countries of the commonwealth. America just stands on there own even though there laws originated in England they have changed the laws and morals to prove they're better.

Hell yah, everyone should look back to the roots of the U.S. even if it WAS DIFFERENT TIMES! It was how it originated!

Canada is a good neighbor, but I think they have a bit of an inferiority complex. Beautiful country nice place to visit.  Relations will probably improve now that a Conservative is in office.  We had some great times during the Mulroney-Reagan years

Canadians are generally nice people, their country looks like the US but the people is much more "European", even if they are also very north Americans in most ways.  I must say that I know especially Fench-Canadians, because I visited Montreal and Quebec.

Canada was invaded during the American Revolution, and the War of 1812.  There was also fighting going on in Canada during the French and Indian War.

1. To relieve the British Empire of the costs in political capital with the United States that having clear colonial possessions in North America meant/\n2. To re-gear the internal political structure of the British North American possessions so as to decrease francophone control of the political agenda and institutions without depriving them of their political rights\n3. To create a more streamlined political institution capable of a greater assertion of political sovereignty over the vast resources of the northern half of North America.\n4. To create a more streamlined political institution capable of displacing and "civilising" the aboriginal societies of the continent more effectively.\n5. To streamline the government of the colony so as to ensure the continued ascendancy of Protestant Anglo-Saxon businessmen in trade and commerce\n6. To provide for a greater economic hinterland for the newly developing industrial heartland of Southern Ontario.\n\nThose aren't what you'll find in your socials text, but maybe you should try them on your teacher.....

I am an American, and of course I have heard of Canada.\n\nI always say that I think the States is extremely lucky to share such a very long border with such quiet, friendly, polite, civilized neighbors!\n\nI have nothing but respect and affection for Canada and Canadians.\n\nIt is a beautiful country, and I, for one, was always treated well when I visited there.\n\nI have been to Montreal, Quebec City, Toronto, seen Nova Scotia, and visited small towns in the Western Provinces. Lovely cities, each very different, and very interesting to see. The small towns out West were charming, and very friendly.

There are several factors. Speaking as an American citizen who plans on immigrating to Canada, we have tough immigration/work policies because Canada does.

No, as Canada is becoming progressively more moderate/conservative (see the election of Steven Harper), it's ties with the US through Bush should only become more friendly.\n\nHeh, unless the US decides to go nuts and bomb everyone.

sounds to me like the difference between British English and American English.  \n\nsince Canada is/was more influenced by the united kingdom than the US, it's probably more normal for you to use aeroplane , which i'm assuming is the british word for it.

I know several Canadians that put US folks to shame where politics are concerned. They are much more attuned to international affairs, domestic affairs than their southern neighbors are attuned to Canadian affairs.

It depends on the type of activity influenced by Americans!\n\nIf it is Inspirational self help such as Anthony Robbins or Chicken soup for The Soul books or Environmental Consciousness, it's a good thing! However, if it's the destructive lyrics of Rap or loose morals, Canadians should be concerned!
