Sum it all up into one number.

What percentage are Americans and Canadians alike?

I am doing this to settle an argument from a friend.

����% More than 3/4 for sure. But there are some differences.

I'd say that the mass majority of anglo-Canadians are like Americans.. but not all Americans are like Canadians.

The exceptions would be the Deep South of the U.S. being without overlap.. and Quebec being without overlap.

Maritimers would be like people in Maine.. Sasketewan would be similar to Montana.. BC is similar to WA/OR.. Ontario is similar to upstate NY.. Manitota to Minnesota.. Yukon to Alaska.. etc.

People from the deep south are unlike Canadians. People from Quebec are unlike Americans. That is what the sentence means.

Depends in what context?

In what area are we alike? Pick a subject something we can all relate to like beer.

Well, seeing as I can count on two hands the number of times I've been to America, never worked there, paid taxes or gone to school there.....what the hell are you talking about?

I'm probably more Korean than anything by now.

78.594579034872390483% alike. Canadians are slow, like maple leaves, and are essentially like the nerdy followers of the americans. Americans like to kill people, like to talk about freedom even though they have non, and are easliy convinced.
