Please concentrate on how Canada is alike and different from the United States. You may use this guide to study, as well the guide (Venn diagram) that you have completed in class. The test will be in a Venn diagram format. On your Venn diagram you will be required to summarize at least one historical development and how it has shaped the development of present day Canada and also identify that Canada is divided into provinces and territories. I will bold print these points on this study guide. You will need to write at least 4 facts for each category; it must include some of the bolded facts.
