Document Summary
Canadians and americans were compared on four values. Canadians only differed from their neighbours on one of the values, namely achievement orientation (strangely called masculinity/feminity in the table) which americans identified with much more than canadians. The other three values that both cultures agreed on were individualism (both rated highly) uncertainty avoidance (both rated this low) hierarchical relationships (both rated this low) Canada generally has been considered to be a little less individualistic than the united states and a little more collective. This can be seen in relation to the two countries societal relationships and institutions. Look at the u. s. constitution which is primarily concerned with. Canada on the other hand has a constitution (which was amended in 1984) but which builds upon principles of peace, order. Text outlines several changes in values for those in the 15 - 29 year age bracket. However, canadians still place a high value on.
