In July of 2021 south-western Canada as well as a few [[File:USA-icon.png]] [[United States of America|US]] states suffered a heat wave, it was mostly active in the US-Canada border near [[File:BritishC-icon.png]] [[British Columbia]] and [[File:Washington-icon.png]] [[Washington]]. Since autumn is near and summer is ending, so is the heat wave.

In 2022, Canada resolved a border dispute on the tiny island of [[File:Hans Island-icon.png]] [[Hans Island|Hans]] with [[File:Denmark-icon.png]] [[Denmark]]. The dispute has been going on since 1973, though violence was never involved. Canada and [[File:Denmark-icon.png]] [[Denmark]] decided to split the island in half, to show [[File:Russia-icon.png]] [[Russia]] that border disputes could be solved without war.

In 2025, Canada finally started to care about their illegal drug problem and started cracking down on fentanyl from the pressure of tariffs from the newly elected {{i|Trump}} [[Trumpism|Trump]]. Trump has also continuously taunted Canada to make him the “51st state”, starting a cultural war between Canada and the USA. Many Canadians are boycotting US brands.
 
{{i|JustinTrudeau}} [[Trudeau Liberalism|Justin Trudeau]] was forced to step down in 2025 admist mass disaaproval of him. There was an election in 2025, and the {{i|LibCanada}} [[Liberal Party of Canada|Liberals]] won their fourth consecutive term because the {{i|ConCanada}} [[Conservative Party of Canada|Conservatives]] did not do enough in the mainstream media and instead focused on videos and ads, and most old people (who majority voted) watches the news. However, the youth of Canada align with the conservatives more, due to the massive housing price crisis caused by the Liberals. It is so bad that four in ten (43%) Canadians age 18-34 would vote to be American if citizenship and conversion of assets to USD are guaranteed.
 
Canada took in 817K new immigrants in the first four months of 2025. In August, Trump hikes tariffs on Canada from 25% to 35%, citing Canada's failure to curb {{i|NarcoCap}} [[Narco-Capitalism|fentanyl trafficking]] and also Canada's use of counter-tariffs.
 
Canada drops to 18th place in 2025 World Happiness Report rank, among the "largest losers".
 
== Government ==
The government of Canada is split into three levels: {{I|Federalism}} [[Fedrealism|federal]], provincal/territorial and local/municipal. The federal government (lead by a prime minister) takes care of the country, in things related to national and international affairs, such as trade, national defense, foreign relations, currency, fishery/oceans, citizenship and immigration. Provincal and territorial takes care of more regional things like natural resources, education, healthcare, transportation and highways. The local and municipal governments take care of the intrests of a certain city, town or village, such as waste removal, water and sewage, libraries, parks and recreation.
 
Canadians {{i|Dem}} [[Democracy|vote]] for a candidate of their desired party for their region, and if elected they can join the {{i|Parliament}} [[Parliamentarianism|parliament]] and go to the House of Commons to debate and select laws.

== Culture ==
Canada himself as the country doesn't have much original culture, his cultures are all a group of separated cultures (such as {{i|3ball}} [[Native Americans|Native]] and {{i|Quebec}} [[Quebec|French]]), in contrast to the {{i|USA}} [[United States of America|USA]]'s melting pot. One element that Canada has is hockey, which can be argued as original.

=== O Canada ===
'''O Canada''' (Ô Canada) is the national anthem of Canada. It has served as his de-facto national anthem since 1939, officially becoming his national anthem in 1980 when Canada's National Anthem Act received royal assent and became effective on July 1 as part of that year's Dominion Day (today's Canada Day) celebrations.
The original {{I|FrenchL}} [[French Language|French]] lyrics were translated to {{I|EnglishL}} [[English Language|English]] in 1906. Multiple English versions ensued, with {{I|Technocracy}} [[Technocracy|Robert Stanley Weir]]'s 1908 version (which was not a translation of the French lyrics) gaining the most popularity. Weir's lyrics eventually served as the basis for the official lyrics enacted by {{I|Parliament}} [[Parliament of Canada|Parliament]]. Since then, the English lyrics have been revised three times, most recently when An Act to amend the National Anthem Act was enacted in 2018, applying gender-neutral language. The French lyrics remain unaltered.

“”I AM SO SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!
— Canada apologizing for having small problems

Canada is a country located in North America. He has the longest coastline in the world. He is also the second largest country in the world, behind Russia. His climate is usually very cold. Like America, he is a country built on immigrants.

Canada has a favorable personality, being very kind towards others. And he apologizes for every little thing, even if he is not responsible. He likes to eat maple syrup, sometimes he pours it onto snow and eat it.

He is also known for his aggressive animals, like the moose and Canadian geese.

History

Early

On April 17 1982, Canada gains full control over its constitution with the enactment of the Constitution Act. This includes the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. On November 5 of the same year, the Canada Act 1982 was signed, formally ending any remaining legislative ties with the United Kingdom. Canada is finally officially and fully independent from the British Empire.

In 1995, the Quebec independence referendum was held, with the "No" side winning by a narrow margin of 50.6% to 49.4%.

Modern

In 2015, Justin Trudeau gets elected, making horrible policies and held on to his power for a long time up until 2025.

In June 2016, Canada legalized euthanasia (Medical Assistance in Dying), for people suffering from illness with foreseeable deaths. On January 25, 2020, the first confirmed cases of Coronavirus arrives in Canada. But in July 2021, Canada controversially extended MAiD to people with no risk for a foreseeable death (AKA disabled people), and have been promoting it to them. This is really concerning, as the woke government of Canada has essentially made killing yourself easier than getting medical treatment in hospitals.

Contemporary

In July of 2021 south-western Canada as well as a few US states suffered a heat wave, it was mostly active in the US-Canada border near British Columbia and Washington. Since autumn is near and summer is ending, so is the heat wave.

In 2022, Canada resolved a border dispute on the tiny island of Hans with Denmark. The dispute has been going on since 1973, though violence was never involved. Canada and Denmark decided to split the island in half, to show Russia that border disputes could be solved without war.

In 2025, Canada finally started to care about their illegal drug problem and started cracking down on fentanyl from the pressure of tariffs from the newly elected Trump. Trump has also continuously taunted Canada to make him the “51st state”, starting a cultural war between Canada and the USA. Many Canadians are boycotting US brands.

Justin Trudeau was forced to step down in 2025 admist mass disaaproval of him. There was an election in 2025, and the Liberals won their fourth consecutive term because the Conservatives did not do enough in the mainstream media and instead focused on videos and ads, and most old people (who majority voted) watches the news. However, the youth of Canada align with the conservatives more, due to the massive housing price crisis caused by the Liberals. It is so bad that four in ten (43%) Canadians age 18-34 would vote to be American if citizenship and conversion of assets to USD are guaranteed.

Canada took in 817K new immigrants in the first four months of 2025. In August, Trump hikes tariffs on Canada from 25% to 35%, citing Canada's failure to curb fentanyl trafficking and also Canada's use of counter-tariffs.

Canada drops to 18th place in 2025 World Happiness Report rank, among the "largest losers".

Government

The government of Canada is split into three levels: federal, provincal/territorial and local/municipal. The federal government (lead by a prime minister) takes care of the country, in things related to national and international affairs, such as trade, national defense, foreign relations, currency, fishery/oceans, citizenship and immigration. Provincal and territorial takes care of more regional things like natural resources, education, healthcare, transportation and highways. The local and municipal governments take care of the intrests of a certain city, town or village, such as waste removal, water and sewage, libraries, parks and recreation.

Canadians vote for a candidate of their desired party for their region, and if elected they can join the parliament and go to the House of Commons to debate and select laws.

Geography

Canada's geography contains three groups of locations: highlands, lowlands, and shields (a kind of in between and mix of highlands and lowlands).

Culture

Canada himself as the country doesn't have much original culture, his cultures are all a group of separated cultures (such as Native and French), in contrast to the USA's melting pot. One element that Canada has is hockey, which can be argued as original.

Songs

O Canada

O Canada (Ô Canada) is the national anthem of Canada. It has served as his de-facto national anthem since 1939, officially becoming his national anthem in 1980 when Canada's National Anthem Act received royal assent and became effective on July 1 as part of that year's Dominion Day (today's Canada Day) celebrations.

The original French lyrics were translated to English in 1906. Multiple English versions ensued, with Robert Stanley Weir's 1908 version (which was not a translation of the French lyrics) gaining the most popularity. Weir's lyrics eventually served as the basis for the official lyrics enacted by Parliament. Since then, the English lyrics have been revised three times, most recently when An Act to amend the National Anthem Act was enacted in 2018, applying gender-neutral language. The French lyrics remain unaltered.

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all of us command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee!

Second, Third & Fourth Stanzas

Below are the second, third, and fourth stanzas of O Canada, which are rarely sung.

O Canada! Where pines and maples grow.
Great prairies spread and lordly rivers flow.
How dear to us thy broad domain,
From East to Western sea.
Thou land of hope for all who toil!
Thou True North, strong and free!

Chorus
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

III
O Canada! Beneath thy shining skies
May stalwart sons, and gentle maidens rise,
To keep thee steadfast through the years
From East to Western sea.
Our own beloved native land!
Our True North, strong and free!

Chorus

IV
Ruler supreme, who hearest humble prayer,
Hold our Dominion within thy loving care;
Help us to find, O God, in thee
A lasting, rich reward,
As waiting for the better Day,
We ever stand on guard.
