American: the rude Canadian \nCanadian: the nice American

No different old stock American descendants from Patriots in revolution war while most old stock Canadians are descendants from Loyalists

All Americans and Canadians are from another country. Their great grandparents who came to live without prejudice must be rolling in their graves

Americans shoot straight but Canadians avoid confrontation and like to talk about weather instead!

I saw many videos where canadian and Americans do racism with Indians. May be with there country development there racism is also developing

When white Americans or Canadians tell immigrants to go back to their country. Tell them to go back to Europe as they should remember there ancestors illegally immigrated there

Dear God! Canadians please Do Not become senile like the americans I beg of You

Many ppl r ignorant! When they see an Asian person, they assumed that he/shenis a Chinese. Are American n Canadians have NO knowledge about Asian culture? Or is it only immigrants r asked to learn about US culture?

I do not see Americans as friends to Canada. we have had a softwood lumber dispute for 30 years now. Canada has different laws which Americans will never accept. when it comes to trade, Americans are not Free Trade or Fair Trade but Trade domination to eliminate competition. Boeing cried about Bombardier and secured a 200% tariff, while the Canadian company has no products to compete against Boeing....\n\nCanada still suffers from tariffs on our steel and Aluminum. \n\nAmericans are only friendly if Canada submits.... the latest NAFTA agreement saw Canada accepting American milk.... dumping into Canada at the expense of our farmers. The USA has an over supply of milk and rather than adjusting production to meet demand America is using Canada as a dumping ground.\n\nAmerican companies have come to Canada and destroyed many Canadian companies, Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes, Costco to name a few. these companies push very hard American products while ignoring Canadian suppliers. In no way would the US ever allow such a concentration of foreign businesses to take control of their economy. \n\nThe USA has been the only nation to violate Canadian Sovereignty.\n\nThousands of Canadians have died to protect the USA, but I can find no American who has died to protect Canada.\n\nCanada has fought in many American wars.\n\nCanada has supported the US during its many hurricanes.... I do not see Americans supporting Canada.\n\nIt must be noted that the USA has the largest military force in the world, yet they always ask for other nations to help them in wars. \n\nthe only nation to invoked Article 5 of NATO has been the USA... Canada responded and assisted America.\n\nThe USA is not a friend really, friends do not treat their partner with such disrespect. \n\nBut hey, Americans flood to Canada to buy lower cost medicines rather that fix their own systems.

American racism = Canadian racism. Pathetic!

Big portion of Canadian taxes are used to finance healthcare and education. Canadian hospitals suck, but at least they don't bankrupt you if you got sick. Also college tuition fee is far below the majority of American universities. Luckily many Canadian universities are on par with Americans, though (UBC, U of T, McGill, UdeM, ...)

Canadians aren't Americans friends either

Do you guys still call black ppl African Americans in Canada? I thought it would be African Canadian

Canadian and Americans.. 100% ratio.. 90% racist, 10 percent not. All the way from the substation, convenient store And even on a simple please fall in line failed.. daily life always there is a racist..

You’ve been in an English speaking country for awhile. So why do you need to communicate via Spanish? You should’ve learned the language by now. That’s the biggest thing, if you want to be a American or Canadian then learn the language. \n\nI’m Latin and my father n uncles hated going places in the US and another Latin would speak Spanish to them. Even though they could speak Spanish they said this is America speak English. \n\nNot all minorities like seeing people coming into the country illegally or by trying to use asylum when they have no claim. If it’s hard in your country don’t have kids, try to immigrate legally to a country!

I hate how westerners are SUPER anti-Asian\nBritish , Canadians , Americans , Germans etc. are SO SO SO anti Asian\nThey are too political , I swear\nNortherners (Estonians and Finnish) are so much more kinder and likable towards them tbh

Love to all Americans and Canadians from bangladesh ??

I thought only in America!! Americans look lot nicer than Canadians especially in Quebec.

Canadians can be racist too, not just an Americans

First of all market place I am totally offended being called American we are not American we are Canadian. This is not north America this is Canada. \nCalling us north Americans is down right disrespectful period.

Americans always accuse Canadians as cowards, maybe that applies to their police too. You know, lets respond tomorrow only, maybe the fighting will be over....

I kinda look at Canadians as Americans they’re not different from us.

Why I keep trying to explain to people that canadians are much more racist than americans.

Racism is also a very big diffrence between theses two countries. Canadians are much more tolerant than americans

When white Americans are being racist - they are feeding into the stereotype that was given to them.\n\nWhen white Canadians are being racist - they are doing the opposite of their stereotype\n\n? ? ?

Very well done! In Canada we are not really patriotic, we love being canadian but we ca speak more freely against it then in the US. We are more free in general because of the global safety. The culture is not only related to money. And lastly we are more aware or interested in the rest of the world. That being sais the last 4 years had destroyed the american brand, so I hope that Canadian way of living will rub off on the US so it would create a more stable and better world.

a landlord can not rent to whoever they choose for any reason they choose. the biggest racial judgement is the one made by supposed 'minorities' that just because youre born white, you have life easier than other people. i am native american, canadian & irish, & i am fully white. by 16 i had buried both parents & was living on my own, at 9 i was picking cucumbers with migrant workers, if racial profiling is bad, how bad is the assumption that others have a easier life than you simply because theyre white?

First mistake he went illegal to the USA. Then he wants Canada to accept him with open arms. Also seems like he never made an effort to learn English after all this time in the USA & Canada. You want to move to any country, do it the right way and life will be good. Do you think Canadians or Americans can move illegally to his country El Salvador and work and live there. They would be locked up in a horrible jail and then removed from the country.

Canadians isn't like him, right??? Maybe an American immigrant ?

Canadians are more friendlier and Americans are more obnoxious and loud

French Canadians are native people of Canada and not just recent immigrants. French Canadians, especially Québécois, are a part of Canadian culture but their culture is also very different. Its the same situation with African Americans in the US.

I think a difference that is not often enough scrutinized is how radically different the population distribution is. Most canadians live in large cities like the greater areas of Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver and Calgary that make much over 50% of the population, Whereas the vast majority of Americans live in medium cities, Canada is all about very large cities and small ones; and its culture is also driven by that. There is no equivalent of christian small town culture here on the scale that it exists in the US.

Ah...a LOT of Canadian dudes leave their family for weeks, even months to make money up North! Why is this made to seem so horrible and dramatic...Like, it cost us 15, 000 dollars ourselves to move to Sacramento with my husband's job with the Hard Rock Cafe Corp....we were living at the poverty line there...my husband was never home...my Visa was cancelled after 911. Gratefully, I was able to just boot it back home to Canada I detested living in the U. S , and only went along to support my American born husband, anyway. It seems to me that these ppl's expectations were uninformed and unrealistic. Canada is a welcoming refuge, but as with everything, theres a process to becoming Canadian.

I lived in both countries for years and there are bigger differences. The USA has guns! Canada doesnt allow just anyone like Adam Lanza to get a gun! Canadians pay more taxes to cover health care while Americans buy their insurance.

I’m a dual citizen of US and Canada. For me a big cultural difference is that Americans are raised thinking they’re the greatest country in the world and Canadians take pride in being peacekeepers and our multicultural mosaic (rather than melting pot).

Canadians are very aware of the US while Americans are barely aware of Canada...

Canada is better in many aspects but in general wayyy better , in Usa u can make money ,make good business less taxes ok better weather in some places mayb less boring ,BUT in Canada u r treated as a human being ur children get free education, free health care ,child benefits,welfare, many otther benefits, , see usa worship money ,capitalism , guns, violence,and wars they dont give a shit about human s health or life,see Canadians are healthier than most American .in USa see how they treat Black Africans Americans they never wanted to admit that they are full Americans just like white they worked hard but they wanted to keep them under their feet by keeping them in ghettos to keep the white supremacy !! NO way to compare Canada to USA there no wayyy!!i lived in anada and i can tell even nature in Canada is waay better is amazing !!!

Nobody chooses to be born white or American or Canadian or Mexican \nWhat makes you proud is only an accident, and you should never belittle the ilegal immigrants because they are brown you don't know the future \nAlso you must never discriminate, because what goes around comes around and you will have to pay for your actions according to God \nThe one that doesn't love you more than a any other brown or yellow person.

As a Canadian we dont claim him. We hand him to the Americans

When are Americans going to realize that the majority of Canadians hate our country? Look at the recent polls. They are NOT real allies!

are canadians supposed to be nicer than americans?

And don't forget to mention the US have much more crime than in Canada. Canadians don't say aboot we say about just like the everyone it's like saying the American's talk Texan or from Alabama can't go to NY city and say howdy partner!

You are one lucky guy to be an American i wish i could live in the states legally, i'd do it in a heartbeat i'd give up my Canadian status in an instant.

US Americans moving into Canada and bringing racism with them? Where did this 'Canada is a happy, respectful and welcoming country' stereotype came from? I've seen a lot of racists videos from this country...Canadians are just like US Americans but in a passive agressive way.

Americans making fun of Canadians :\nCanadians making fun of Americans :\nEuropeans watching them unfold : I can milk you.

The difference between Americans and Canadians: Americans wanted people to know that they're Americans, while Canadians wanted people to know that they're NOT Americans.

The Canadian government gives ppl false hope...cause the more immigrants pay lawyers to richer the queen becomes...most illegal immigrants from south America are starting to save their money an move to other South American countries

The US is the 4th largest country, China is 3rd. Canadians know geography, Americans don't.

As a Canadian-American I can only say the majority of Canadians are not nicer as the big cities such as Toronto are terrible but people in more suburban and rural areas are generally kinder than in the states
