CanadaDefinition from Wiktionary, the free dictionary (Redirected from canada) Jump to: navigation, search See also Canadá, and Ca-na-đaFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Canada ( / ˈ k æ n ə d ə /) is a country occupying most of northern North America, extending from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west and northward into the Arctic Ocean. It is the world's second largest country by total area. Canada's common border with the United States to the south and northwest is the longest in the world. The land occupied by Canada was inhabited for millennia by various groups of Aboriginal peoples. Beginning in the late 15th century, British and French expeditions explored, and later settled, along the Atlantic coast. France ceded nearly all of its colonies in North America in 1763 after the Seven Years' War. In 1867, with the union of three British North American colonies through Confederation, Canada was formed as a federal dominion of four provinces. This began an accretion of provinces and territories and a process of increasing autonomy from the United Kingdom. This widening autonomy was highlighted by the Statute of Westminster of 1931 and culminated in the Canada Act of 1982, which severed the vestiges of legal dependence on the British parliament. A federation consisting of ten provinces and three territories, Canada is governed as a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy with Queen Elizabeth II as its head of state. It is a bilingual nation with both English and French as official languages at the federal level. One of the world's highly developed countries, Canada has a diversified economy that is reliant upon its abundant natural resources and upon trade—particularly with the United States, with which Canada has had a long and complex relationship. It is a member of the G8, G-20, NATO, OECD, WTO, Commonwealth, Francophonie, OAS, APEC, and UN. From Wikipedia under the

Q. The US currenlty refuses to buy oil from canada from any new sites. The US will only buy oil from old sites. But canada wants to drill in new sites, and they want the US to buy it. Canadian lobbyists are all over Washignton trying to get the law changed. What do you think of this. Why do you think the media does't cover it. And do you think it's okay for canada to do this because it's canada. How would you feel if Americans did this? Asked by Michael l - Tue Jul 14 18:01:16 2009 - - 13 Answers - 1 Comments A. ok :T J , first of all we are NOT occupying Haiti, we don't have anything to do with Haiti except that our governor general is from there. Also, we are not interested in "trashing" the U.S. . Why don't you get your facts straight, you narrow-minded bigot. In regards to the question, Canada is not imposing laws to sell more or less oil. I'm sure that if we did change the laws it wouldn't matter. Answered by unknown - Fri Jul 17 05:46:20 2009 Main house in Canada, is the mortgage interest deductible? Q. I work in US, but my family is in Canada, and we bought house in Canada (no house in US). Wonder whether the mortgage interest paid in 2008 is tax deductible. Thanks. Sorry, I forgot to mention the question is about the deduction in US income tax return. Asked by Yingping L - Mon Mar 16 22:42:47 2009 - - 3 Answers - 1 Comments A. Yes it is. However, you should talk to a professional as there could be a requirement for you to withhold 30% of the payment and then the bank would have to claim this back from the government. As no bank would want to do this, they would just increase your payment by enough to cover the withholding, which you would not want. So, talk to an expert first. Answered by MadMan - Tue Mar 17 08:41:02 2009 How do you obtain Sodium metal in Canada or transport it across the border?
Q. I cannot find anywhere in Canada to buy pure Sodium metal. Most places on the internet list it as a restricted material. I found Sodium being sold on eBay but only in the United States. They will not ship it internationally as the Postal Service does not allow it to be sent out of the country. I can have it shipped to a friend in the United States and have them bring it back to Canada the next time they travel. Will the airlines allow Sodium to be carried on a flight or to be put in checked baggage? If not, can it just be driven across the border? Another suitable solution for me would be to find someone selling it in Canada for a reasonable price. Does anyone know if there is somewhere an ordinary person can buy Sodium in Canada? Thanks.… [cont.] Asked by Natrium - Tue Oct 9 01:13:57 2007 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments A. Although sodium metal is a restricted material, it CAN still be shipped to/within Canada if declared as a hazardous material and transported by special courrier. As a material that's regulated by Transportation of Dangerous Goods Act, it is usually not a good idea to bring the item across the US border undeclared. Also, it canNOT be transported by air, ground only. If you can provide proof/ background of the kind of research you are doing with the sodium and you need a reasonable amount of metal, I may be able to help.
