Question

What are the similarities and differences with Canada west and Canada east ?

Answer 1

Eastern Canada hold more older (European) settlements than Western Canada. Eastern Canada was settled by the French and then the English in an effort to expand their terrortories and then resource (fur trade) extraction. The bulk of the original population of these regions are direct descendants of the original settlers and of the "Loyalists" who moved north from the United States when the US became independant from Britain.
