I certainly hope (and trust) that Canadian men have higher testosterone counts than English "men."
You can be as cocky as you like, but I'm right. Central America is part of the continent of North America. Central America is not a continent in itself.
You should have listened more to your geography teacher at school.
North America

To be fair, neither is Europe. The designation of Europe as a continent is purely political, based on the unfounded feelings of superiority of the Western Europeans. Geologically, Eurasia is a single continent.
Yeah, okay. Whatever you say.
Just ask the Turks whether they feel European or Asian. I would say they'd opt for the former. They are even trying to join the EU.
Well, I can't speak for others, but you haven't said a thing that I didn't already know. Thus far, you are a perfectly regulation "Disgusted in Tunbridge Wells" pom.
As a Canadian, aside from the political structure, I don't feel any similarity to Britain at all.
Almost all of my associating with countries outside Canada is with the US. We export 87% of our goods and services to the US and the US does about 24% of their export goods and services with Canada.
Most vacations are taken in the US, we get a lot of US TV channels, our cultures are very similar ie country music etc
Quite frankly, I really don't want much of what the UK has to offer us, if anything.
The Americans are a better and smarter neighbor than the Brits can ever be!!
You may have known that Central America was part of North America - which is amazing considering that Americans have a reputation in Britain for being ignorant of the world outside the US - but not everybody did.
That doesn't make Canada part of the UK. Why you don't understand that is totally beyond me.
Traditionally we are linked to the UK. Economically and culturally we are much more akin to the USA.
I've travelled extensively in the USA and for the most part it's much like travelling to different parts of Canada. In practical terms, Canadians have much more affinity to Americans than to Brits. You probably won't understand that either.
Canada's System of Government
Canada is a democratic constitutional monarchy, with a Sovereign as head of State and an elected Prime Minister as head of Government.
Canada has a federal system of parliamentary government: Government responsibilities and functions are shared between federal, provincial and territorial governments.
Federal responsibilities are carried out by the Monarchy and the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches of Government.
The United States is a republic.....quite different

I disagree.
Considering that 21% of Canadians are of English heritage, 15.1% are of Scottish heritage and 13.9% are of Irish heritage and that Canadians have stronger family links to the UK than to the US I would say there is more of an affinity with the UK than the US in Canada. The British are Canada's largest ethnic group.
And, as I've mentioned, in many ways Canada is more related to the UK than to the US. Your Head of State, governmental system, militaary etc are modelled on Britain's.
That's growth, I'm talking about absolute!!
Deloitte: Canada’s productivity lags U.S. in ‘virtually every instance’ | Financial Post
If that's the case, no wonder we have such low productivity!!
We are going to have to ban the Brits from immigrating into Canada,,,, them and Muslims !!! LOL !!!

You can disagree all you want from where you sit... in the UK. I'm telling you what the situation is actually like on the ground... here in Canada.
My family origin is from Austria. That doesn't make me part of an Austrian "ethnic" group. That only means that I'm a Canadian with an ancestral connection to Austria; it doesn't make me live my life any differently as a Canadian. And as a Canadian I live my life much more similarly to an American than to a Brit.
You ascribe entirely too much impact to ancestral ties as a determinant of how Canadians live their lives.
Not entirely true. Just look at the portion of your population who are "Hispanics", for example.
That was reasonably true half a century ago. Not any more.
No it's not.
