Difference between Canada and France

Canada and France have a relationship that few other countries share, and their histories and cultures are inextricably tied together in numerous ways.

Canada is a country located in the northern portion of North America.

Canada is the second largest country in the world in terms of total area, and it has the distinction of having the longest border in the world, which it shares with the United States.

France is known officially as the French Republic, and this Western European country has numerous other territories and islands all over the world. The country shares borders with Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Monaco, Spain and Andorra.

Government And Economy

Canada is comprised of ten provinces and three territories, and it follows a parliamentary democratic form of government, although it is also a constitutional monarchy with Queen Elizabeth II serving as the Canadian head of state. Canada is officially a bilingual country, with English and French designated as its official languages. Canada is one of the most developed countries in the world, a status that it has managed to achieve by way of a diverse economy that is built upon its extensive natural resources and flourishing trade.

The French actually enjoy a very high standard of living and the level of public education is quite high as well. France is also one of the most visited countries in the world, with as many as 82 million people visiting it every year.

Culture
