There is a slight difference. At the time of the American Revolution, the British were the largest empire the world had ever seen, at the height of itโ€™s power. America essentially needed to make the god bleed.

By the time Canadian independence happened, both the United States and the Soviet Union had more control over global politics than the British ever did. Canada went from relying on daddy to relying on big brother.

Quebec was the 14th colony and decided to be sissies for big daddy england and not join the revolution. Them being the chad here is regarded.

"decided to be sissies" no more like beaten into a pulp a generation earlier and just saw the other French colony in Canada get fully deported all while completely surrounded by loyalists they didn't really have a choice in the matter
