The only difference i believe there is between African Americans and African Canadian iz that some if not most AC came from Africa and chose to settle in a new land unlike the AA who were brought to America against their own will. But if this form of events have anything to do with the way an AA and AC thinks i dunno cuz what i see out here is young AC trying to be more like the AA.
