Lol obvious where your from is a total outlier. But if you compared people in cali to those in nor carolina you wouldn't get that extreme amount of difference.

Considering you have 10 times the population you have a much tighter blend across the country. Canada is like a bunch of islands with each island being very separate from the ones next to it. America is continious minus cascadia, where one region blends into the next there are very few divides, even the north and south divide which might be the biggest, is very blended especially the further west you go. Canada does not have a blending factor. Western canadians for the most part aren't even of the same ancestry as those in the east.

Yeah aren't Western Canadians mostly a mix of Americans and direct-from-Europe in ancestry while Ontarians and Maritimers are descended from American loyalists?
