Tid bits from the site I link below:

"Canada and the USA have a unique friendship, similar democratic and historic roots."

""The relationship between the United States and Canada is the closest and most extensive in the world. It is reflected in the staggering volume of bilateral trade--the equivalent of $1.5 billion a day in goods--as well as in people-to-people contact. About 300,000 people cross the shared border every day".

""The U.S. and Canada share the world's largest and most comprehensive trading relationship, which supports millions of jobs in each country.""

""Canada is the leading export market for 36 of the 50 U.S. States, and ranked in the top three for another 10 States. In fact, Canada is a larger market for U.S. goods than all 27 countries of the European Community combined, whose population is more than 15 times that of Canada.""

""The U.S. and Canada enjoy the largest energy trade relationship in the world. Canada is the single largest foreign supplier of energy to the U.S.--providing 17% of U.S. oil imports and 18% of U.S. natural gas demand.""

If you ask most USA citizens about (aka, aboot) Canada, most know little.

Most know more about countries that are trivial, when it comes to USA daily relationships/interests.


I was once asked in Boston if Nova Scotia, east coast Canada is ""above the tree line"", (BTW, Boston is very close to Nova Scotia latitude-wise). A recent episode of CSI Miami referred to a "Glacier Park" being in Nova Scotia? LOL

Now, isn't it just stoopid/stupid, of citizens of the USA? Or, are Canadians just lucky about that?

Canada-USA, a huge relationship
