  1. Why do you keep asking this?  We're all Canadians but we are indeed seperated by provinces.  What about that don't you get?


  2. not really...maybe people from Quebec though.

  3. No, we are not foreign to each other.

  4. Well, to some extent, yes, and to another extent, no.

    All provinces have their own pride, culture, traditions...etc but they still acknowledge themselves as Canadians.

    Quebec has for a long time been trying to separate from Canada, and its culture is vastly different from the other provinces (the culture gap being larger than that between other provinces) but is still an integral constituent of Canada's history and part of the country.

    Albertans are actually seen to be Canadian yet foreign at the same time. Kind of how Americans are perceived in Canada as North Americans, but not quite Canadians.

    As for whether Canadians are foreign to each other, usually they aren't. Canadians are generally well aware of the mannerisms and culture of all Canadian provinces. Canadian children are also taught the Native cultures of Canada and learn to appreciate them. It's part of Canadian pride, and Canada tries to integrate them as well. Moreover, immigrants must know some cultural stuff to get their citizenship.

  5. No, not really.

  6. No it's not any different than Americans... A person from New York is called a "new Yorker" a person from Rhode Island is called a "Rohde Islander"

    Why would we be foreign to each other? It's the same with cities... "calgarian" "Edmontonian" etc.

  7. no..
