Canada and the United States The United States and Canada have some similarities. They include some physical land features such as the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains, and the Appalachian Mountains. Some differences include the type of government they have. Another difference is Canada is a bilingual country and the U.S. is not. Another difference is Canada have provinces and territories and the United States has states. Some similarities are the landscape of parts of these countries. That includes the Great Plains, the Rocky Mountains and the Appalachians. Also, they are both considered a melting pot. Another similarity is they, at one point, were both at war with European countries over power and land. Also, they have the same economy, which is the market economy. Some differences are the type of government each has. The United States has a representative democracy. That means voters chose their leaders who make and enforce the laws and the power is divided equally. Canada has a parliamentary democracy. This means voter chose representatives to a law making body called Parliament. In Canada’s government, they have a prime minister, not a president. Some other differences are the areas of land. Canada has 10 provinces and 3 territories, while the United States have 50 states. Also, Canada is a bilingual country. A bilingual country simply means that they have two official languages. One of Canada’s official languages is English. The other is French. On the other hand the United States only speak one official language, which is English. So there you have it. Some of the differences and similarities that Canada and the United States have. Again, examples of similarities are the type of economy, the war with parts of Europe and some physical land features. Some differences are the type of government which means different names of leaders. Also, Canada has provinces and territories, while the United States have states. There’s, I am sure many, many more, but there was just a few examples.
