lots of differnces, here is a TV commercial shown, pl try to understand it from a Canadian perspective. Text of Joe Canada's Rant in Molson Brewery's Latest "I Am Canadian" Campaign---I really like it:

guest:CanadianToo

I am not a lumberjack or a fur trader. I don't live in an igloo, eat bluber or own a dogsled. I don't know Jimmy, Suzie, or Sally from Canada, although I'm certain they're very nice. I have a Prime Minister, not a President, I speak English and French, not American. And I pronounce it 'about' not 'a-boot'. i can proudly sew my country's flag on my jackpack. i believe in peacekeeping, not policing; diversity, not assimilation. And that the beaver is a proud and noble animal. A toque is a hat; a chesterfield is a couch. And it's pronounced ZED, ok? not ZEE, ZED! Canada is the second-largest landmass, the first nation of hockey and the best part of North America. My name is Joe and I am Canadian.

枫下茶话 / 社会 / 23%的加拿大认为20年内，加拿大会被美国吞并。主要是经济一体化，银行合并。但是货币，政体，选举等还不会。有些人更悲观地认为10年内会合并。 -mildkiller(温柔杀手); 2001-6-11 (#98081@0)

用词不当，把“悲观”改为“乐观”。 -pyramid(金字塔); 2001-6-11 (#98132@0)
越早合并越好，免得我的收入不断贬值 -guest:guest; 2001-6-11 (#98133@0)
我希望在我登陆地的二天就合并。 -ttl(羊肉泡馍); 2001-6-11 (#98142@0)
US sucks. You will know after you are here for 2 years, instead of 2 days. -guest:I am Canadian; 2001-6-16 (#103058@0)
金字塔, guest, 羊肉泡馍, i guess all you guys have been neither in Canada nor in USA. -guest:CanadaSupporter; 2001-6-16 (#103060@0)

不用猜，不在美加是不是就不能说美加好，那毫巴。社会主义好、社会主义好，社会主义国家人民地位高。我唱的时候觉的象吃了苍蝇。我只想要一个平静的生活。 -ttl(羊肉泡馍); 2001-6-16 (#103152@0)

No i think you may misunderstand me or i misunderstand you, by 合并, I assume you want canada to be the 51 state of usa, if I get you wrong, i am sorry -guest:off the point; 2001-6-16 (#103179@0)

that is not important,no sorry, only a disscusion. us or canada it's no different for me . -ttl(羊肉泡馍); 2001-6-16 (#103183@0)

世界大同是趋势，加拿大90%的人口分布在距美国200英里的狭长地带之内。各大城市都收看临近的美国电视台，人民特别是青年美国化严重，加拿大英语基本是美国音，虽然极少数单词拼写不同。差异和美国国内各州差异都差不多。 -pyramid(金字塔); 2001-6-16 (#103197@0)

Just because of that, Canadians want to retain their OWN identity. -guest:CanadianToo; 2001-6-16 (#103201@0)

I am not familiar to canada, and I am not familiar to usa, so I am not familiar to the difference of canada and usa, I only know I will land canada , and I will work there,so I think I will love her, that is will, not now. -ttl(羊肉泡馍); 2001-6-16 (#103199@0)

good to hear, and kind advice: change all "to" to "with" in your post -guest:CanadianToo; 2001-6-16 (#103203@0)

thanks, I have been confused for almost twenty years for that. my english is poor , because Chinese is my motherlanguage. I will improve it, that is "我们一直在努力“。 -ttl(羊肉泡馍); 2001-6-16 (#103208@0)

ok, to clarify, somebody is familiar WITH something; something is familiar TO somebody. -guest:CanadianToo; 2001-6-16 (#103220@0)

thank you very much. three people walk, one of them must be my teacher. Kongzi said. -ttl(羊肉泡馍); 2001-6-16 (#103225@0)

IT REMINDS ME OF A JOKE---CHINESE TO ENGLISH TRANSLATION---孔子， HOLE SON；老子， OLD SON；墨子， INK SON；韩非子， KOREA NO SON -guest:; 2001-6-16 (#103236@0)

从另一个角度讲，美国方面估计不会做出此举。美国是一个移民控制很严格的国家。有一套严格的绿卡配额体系 -numnum(numnum); 2001-6-16 {692} (#103235@0)
根据我的经验，美国现在对加拿大边境是越来越小心，检查也越严格。美国每年对各个国家的绿卡配额基本是9600左右。如果兼并加哪大，对它的移民体系会有很大冲击，从各方面造成很多漏洞。从经济角度讲，美国完全没有必要兼并加拿大，这两国经济方面已经几乎成为一体。在我这里有很多加哪大公民，他们人人都在翘首等待自己的绿卡，跟其他印度，中国人没什么两样。最近大裁员，很多加拿大人在公司里求爷告奶奶，就是因为他一但失去工作，绿卡申请也半途而废。移民宽松程度不同只是美加两国行政方面差异的一个小侧面，其他还有很多不同，我觉得两国不会费事去合并的，尤其是美国这个现实TOUGH的政府，是不会花精力去兼并另一个国家的。君不见美国佬最近虽然在世界各地霸道横行，但从来没有兴趣强占哪个国家的领土吗？一句话说白了，人家用不着

这个话题已经说了50年了。呵呵。俺同意你的分析。不过我想将来一旦出现淡水危机，美国会不会来抢水来？ -dropoutinmiami(东北的饺子); 2001-6-16 (#103245@0)

呵呵，饺子，我估计美国佬会在贸易上做文章，逼加拿大卖廉价的水过去。看看历史，好象加哪大总是受气 -numnum(numnum); 2001-6-16 (#103250@0)

呵呵，谈判桌上谁的底牌更硬。 -dropoutinmiami(东北的饺子); 2001-6-16 (#103255@0)

没水喝的还硬？ -guest:; 2001-6-16 (#103263@0)

嘿嘿，没水变干了，当然就硬了 -numnum(numnum); 2001-6-16 (#103264@0)

多少通过大家拿当跳板去美国的同志岂不是一步到位了？ -jie_he2001(bronze); 2001-6-16 (#103259@0)
