    There’s a clear culture shock when I go to the US, even the first one being that we acknowledge the difference between America and the United States of America 😉 Many other Canadians don’t realize the difference, and for some reason, they tend to be on the right side of the political compass. Culturally speaking, we’re closer to the Brits, but with an American lifestyle.

      This. It’s very British influenced. Even the music and television culture, I hadn’t heard of half this stuff people grew up with here. Now I am the proud owner of a North American house hippo.
