Is northeast Ohio similar to Ontario Canada? (places, population, people)

[jjfrrl]

Is it?

[tablemtn]

Not particularly.

Not at all. NY isn't even like Ontario and it shares a close border.

Yes, I see many similarities between northeastern Ohio and Ontario, Canada. Both Ohio ( NE OHIO in particular ) and Ontario have historically been more industrial and had had a definitive reliance upon the heavy industry / manufacturing sector.
Both NE Ohio and Ontario are home to major population centers with Cleveland / Akron metro area and Toronto ... Both are located on Lake Erie ... I think they're actually quite comparable to one another.

Canada is just a different animal than the U.S.

Not the same at all. Two different countries we're talking. They do both begin and end with O though.. there's one similarity.

I don't know. Using that extremely vague description you can match it with many places. Both places also have people. Both places contain houses. etc.

At no point have I ever been driving or walking around northeastern Ohio and thought to myself, "Hey, this seems like Ontario."
