Myths Defining Canadian Identity
Myths are common tales or beliefs that we hold true as Canadians – often they are stereotypes held by Canadian and other countries (they often have a piece of truth – think about the stories that are often told at family gatherings and how they change over time.

What about geography?
Part of our identity is being the second largest country in the world, with a harsh climate
But how is our geography a force that divides our nation-state into different nations?

“In the psychological sense, there is no Canadian nation as there is an American or French nation. There is a
legal and geographic entity, but the nation does not exist. For there are no objects that
all Canadians share as objects of national feeling.”
(Charles Hanley)

Things Americans have noticed about us:
A few interesting facts Canada has more donut shops per capita than the United States does. Canadians consume more Kraft Dinner (aka Kraft Macaroni & Cheese) per capita
than any other nationality on earth. The CBC's evening news anchor is bald and doesn't wear a toupee. Contests run by anyone other than the government have "skill-testing questions"
that winners must answer correctly before they can claim a prize. These are usually math problems, and are administered to get around the law that only the government can administer lotteries.
The big mass-market beers are Molson and Labatt, and they're stronger than US beers. The major cigarette labels are milder than American ones.
There are billboards advertising vacations in Cuba, and Cuban cigars are freely available.
Nobody worries about losing a life's savings or a home because of illness. Teenagers can drink legally. The drinking age in Quebec, Manitoba, and Alberta is
18; it's 19 in the rest of the country. Potato chips come in flavo(u)rs such as salt and vinegar, ketchup, and "all
dressed" Cars (especially on the Prairies) have electrical plugs sticking out from under the
hoods. These are for block heaters, to prevent engines from freezing when it's -40.
People give distances in times, not miles. People ask whether you'd like "a coffee" rather than "some coffee."
