Question

Compare American and Canadian views on the size of government.

Answer 1

american government is much larger with three branches than canada's government since they have a parliamentary democracy

Answer 2

There is a huge comparative difference in the size of the government of America and Canada. The views of the people are also different. The US has one district and 50 states whereas Canada has 3 territories and 10 provinces. The US has more administrative divisions that that of Canada so it has a bigger government.

Americans view their government as an intervention in their lives and are mostly opposed to their governments. Whereas, Canadians think that their government has a fundamental role to play and this is why Canadians are not opposed to higher taxes.
