I mean the other 2 countries, Canada and Mexico, how similar are both of them to United States?? Both countries have a similar economy and democracy etc, and I think those two countries share things like supermarkets, stores, etc. I suppose the cultural differences are not a lot, that is very nice.

The English part of Canada loves to act like it's culturally distinct but what they watch, listen to and read is mostly American, to the point where Anglo Canadian production is so unpopular that the Canadian state media (TV, radio, online written content) might as well be two separate entities when you compare the quantity of original content in English vs French. French Canadians punch way above their weight in the amount of cultural content they produce basically just for themselves...

Politically it's often said that Canada is the USA with a ~5 years delay...
