2. The answer depends on where the Canadian live those that live in Western Provinces are less likely to be fluently bilingual than those that live in the Eastern provinces. Most Canadian have some proficiency in French but those who are truly bilingual are in the minority.
3. I'm assuming you are talking about an English Canadian because a French wouldn't be mistaken for an American. There is an English Canadian accent -- to many Americans it sounds vaguely Scottish

Canuck is a term Canadians used to refer to themselves

What are three top misconceptions of Canadians? That we have no military or military traditions That we all want to be American. That the 9/11 hijackers came into the US through Canada.
How does Canada view and handle multiculturalism (cultural and ethnic diversity)? We are a multicultural country that celebrates the strength diverse cultures give our society. We are one of the welcoming places to different cultures in the world.
What are Canadian's favorite meals? Marconi and Cheese (we eat more of it than anyone else) Maple syrup, poutine (french fries covered in gravy and cheese curds) butter tarts are meal that orginated here. Plus all the food that the various cultures have given us.
What are the biggest differences in lifestyle between the average Canadian and the average American? This is kind of hard. I think Canadian tend to eat better and excerside more as a whole than Americans but I can't really back this up.
Finally [MENTION=12656]Elegant Winter[/MENTION] Full discolure, I am a Liberal supporter so my opinion will be given through by own perspective. Justin is the best PM we have had in recent memory and is doing a great job overall. Harper never truly represented Canadian values and was hard pressed to get a working majority. He only managed to get into power because of the weakness of the Liberal leaders at the time and was unable to do what he truly wanted to do which was change the fabric of this country to be more right wing. It turns out hanging onto power was more important to him than his ideology. Its great to have a PM who truly understands what Canada is about and that includes a welcoming to more Syrian refugees (a key campaign promise).
Judging from the tagline on your signature, this will meet with your disapproval. Marine is no different than her father and she is fooling no one who has examined the NP positions.
