Are White Americans and White Anglo-Canadians part of the same ethnic group?

[Bell Beaker]

Not really US is mixed Germans-Brits etc
Canada is mostly UK and French for the Quebec.

German ancestry is quite overrated in the USA.

[Ars Moriendi]

Barely noticeable differences. And referring to "ethnicity", absolutely the same people with some slight differences in speech/accent/personal mannerisms.

USA was great until the Immigration Catastrophe of 1965

[Isleño]

Would you consider White Americans and White Anglo-Canadians to be part of the same ethnic group? I think you could make a case for either side.

Of course not. Just because they are white does not put them in the same ethnic group. Same racial group, yes. Same ethnic group, no. For that much you could ask if any whites from any countries are in the same ethnic group, which we know is not the case.

I think Anglo-Americans and Anglo-Canadians could be said to be of the same ethnic group, more or less. Their ancestry and culture are nearly identical, although there are some slight differences. A better question might be, are Anglo-North Americans that different from Brits?

[brennus dux gallorum]

German ancestry is quite overrated in the USA.

I was thinking the same, USA has everything from Europe, not to mention that by mentality Canadians seem closer to Germans than Americans to Germans.

[alnortedelsur]

Both populations have similar averages of European backgrounds, the main difference being that there are more German ancestry among white US North Americans, as a whole, and there is more French ancestry among white Canadians, as a whole.

But you cannot describe them as being one ethnic group, or two ethnic groups (white Americans and white Canadians) because they both have different peoples of different mindsets, to begin with.

[Dominicanese]

yes, with out a question

[Taiguaitiaoghyrmmumin]

I wouldn't say so. But I could see how someone might want to rationalize that based off being britain

[Dragoon]

Ethnicity? No. Too many ethnic groups in both nations.

Meta-ethnicity? You might argue Anglo. But even that is questionable.
