Default Biggest difference between Canada and the USA

Take selfies in the subway station ..alone.. with no bodyguards.

As the Canadians are part French their politicians have the knowledge of running away and signing the surrender papers faster than a fart out of a hippo.

Wow, that is umm... really offensive actually. Especially given Canada's (including French Canada's) military history. Furthermore, when exactly has Canada ever drafted papers of surrender.
