Canadians (french: Canadiens) are people identified with the country of Canada. This connection may be residential, legal, historical or cultural.

Canada has also been strongly influenced by its linguistic, geographic, and ec ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
