Canada is unusual in many ways, I’d say hehe. We never separated from the British like the colonies did, so the languages (quebecois French, too!) have kept a lot of British influences. About 2/3 of its relatively small population of 41 million lives in the first 100km north of the US border - an individual in British-Columbia is 8000km+ and 5-6 time zones away from someone in the Atlantic provinces. We’re similar to the US in how different every province can be from one another, I think.
