Candians and americans do share alot in common. Like landguage and media influence etc. But we have many subtile diffeerences, include political, social views. For example most americans support war on iraq whereas canadians do not.
So i think include candians into americans is disrespectful to us.

You're misunderstanding my point. America, as a whole, includes not only the United States, but Canada, Mexico, etc. It's called "North America" and "South America" for a reason. Last time I checked, our country was not named "America." I am not saying that Canadian people are the same as people who live in the United States, far from it. What I am saying is that calling us "Americans" is kind of silly, due to the fact that everyone on the rest of the continent is also an American.
