B. The passage suggests that much of Canadian thought and viewpoint are influenced by the vast spaces in Canada.\n\nIt's not A since national character is mentioned as a result of the uninhabited land.\n\nIt's not C for the same reason.\n\nIt's not D since that idea is not even mentioned in the passage.

sounds to me like the difference between British English and American English.  \n\nsince Canada is/was more influenced by the united kingdom than the US, it's probably more normal for you to use aeroplane , which i'm assuming is the british word for it.

Canada's Landforms.  Canada is from an Iroquois word meaning "village". The weight of Ice Age glaciers created a large low basin. This is why Canada has more lakes and inland waterways than any other country.  \n\nThe Eastern Highlands - Appalachian and Laurentian Highlands are rolling hills and low mountains with forests and deepwater harbors along the rocky coast. \n\nThe St, Lawrence and Great Lakes Lowlands - highly urban area with fertile soil, good transportation, and most of Canada's farms, people, and industries.  Niagara Falls is found here. \n\nThe Canadian Shield and the Arctic Islands - huge, horseshoe shaped area around Hudson Bay. It is made up of hills worn down by glaciers and thousands of glacial lakes.  It covers more than half of Canada.  Mosses and small shrubs grow in the north with evergreen forests in the south.  Soil is not good for farming, but minerals are found in abundance.  The Arctic islands have tundra plants and glacial ice covers the northernmost islands. \n\nThe Interior Plains - an extension of the Great Plains.  Huge, rolling prairie (inland grassland) with very fertile soil.  Wheat and other grains grow here.  Minerals like oil and natural gas are also found here. \n\nThe Rocky Mountains - part of the cordillera (a group of mountain ranges that run side by side).  Scenic beauty (natural parks like Banff and Jasper) and rich mineral resources. \n\nThe Pacific Coast - Mt. Logan (19,551 ft.) is Canada's highest peak.  West of the Rockies, hou have high plateaus until you reach the Coast Mountains (part of the cordillera). The Inside Passage is a 1,000 mile waterway between the west coast and a group of islands. \n\nThese links provide a little more information.  I hope this helps.

It depends on what you are looking for.  "Better" is a word that can mean anything, and can be defined only by the person using it.\n\nPeople in both countries are very friendly, kind, helpful and caring.  They have many of the same aspirations and goals. They want the same things  or similar things for their children.  They both have strong family values.  Both countries care strongly about their citizens, and citizens of both countries care strongly about thier countries.  For the most part, they have similar cultural and ethinc groups.  Both countries have a very strong second language group - French in Canada, Spanish in the US.  Both countries have similar good records in terms of acceptance of different cultural groups, but also similar problems in terms of cultural and ethnic misunderstandings, intolerance, and prejudice.  Both countries are trying to deal with various controversial social issues, each in its own way - abortion, same sex marriage, medical cannabis, etc.  In the US these issues tend to be dealt with state by state, while in Canada they tend to be dealt with nationally.  Both countries have a democratic form of government.  Both countries have a federal/national government as well as state/provincial governments.  Both countries use English as its main language.  Both countries have great variety in terms of landscape, geology, coastline, etc.  Canada and the US are each other's best trading partners.  We share professional sports organizations - the NHL, etc. and interest in the same sports - hockey, baseball, football.  Players from each country play on teams in the other country.\n\nCanada has the US beat in may ways.  In Canada, there is far less crime, though crime in Canada is increasing.  Health care is free to all - no insurance needed, and no matter what the care that is needed.  Many professionals are paid more in Canada than in the US - note teachers and day care workers especially.  Believe it or not, the cost of living is much lower in Canada than in the US.  Care of seniors and those with special needs is better in Canada.  Contrary to what a previous person answered, the education system is much better in Canada.  Elementary and high schools are much more progressive in many ways.  University and college education costs much less in Canada than in the US.  Canada's social services safety net is much better.   Canada does much better with recycling and protectin the environment.  Canada has much more pure water resources.  Many public schools in Canada still allow the Lord's prayer as part of daily life.  \n\nHowever, in many parts of the US the weather is much better for sure.  There are more opportunities for employment, simply because the population is so much larger, which automatically creates employment.  Travel throughout the US is much easier and cheaper than travel throughout Canada.  The US dollar is more acceptable and well known in the international market place.  There are often more choices in the US in some ways - what to do, food, where to shop, etc., again related to a much larger population.  In the US people are much more dedicated to their flag and wear their patriotism much more openly than Canadians do.  The US is an easier country for retired people in some ways, including employment, and a less stressful climate.\n\nI could continue.  So I hope this answer helps put some perspective on this question.  Canadians and Americans have more in common, I think, than they have differences, and neither country is overall better than the other.  they each have their good characteristics and their problems, just like any other aspect of our world.

I must tell you that I had no idea that Canadians had a different religious culture. Now, I'm a bit confused: which country assigns a higher importance to religion? America or Canada? And what do you mean by "force"?

Canada is a great country, where people come from all over, and are able to maintain their cultures. Living in Toronto it's not uncommon to hear several languages daily just going about your business. Other countries have impacted Canadian culture and society simply by enriching it. Giving us a deeper understanding and acceptance of differences.

I am not familiar with the concept of "issue" - must be Canadian.
