The United States is not a nation either. It is just a bunch of societies thrown together. The Easterners, the Californianers, Southern Staters, and the Mid-Westerners.
Canada is not a nation. It is merely the part of America that the British were able to hold on to and throw together. The French Canadian, Eastern Canadian, Western Canadian, and Ontarian societies never get along..
Get along well enough to support our federal government. There are cracks, but Quebecors (for the most part) refer to themselves as Canadians, as do Albertans and Nova Scotians.
