Many Quebec French Canadians have a sweet tooth. Also Quebec province produces more maple syrup than any other State or Province. That may be why you associate Canadians with a maple syrup sweet tooth. (which is not the case). Canada is an enormous country. Quebec Province is a good deal larger than twice the area of the state of Texas. Only Russia has more square miles than Canada. The majority of Canadians do not live in the bush. 90% of the population lives within 100 miles of the U.S. border.
There is an enormous amount of bush, in Canada, but it is very sparsely populated and much of it is situated in the North or in the Mountains..
During Easter celebrations many people in Quebec celebrate at sugaring off chalets, situated near maple syrup woods and syrup collecting operations. and almost all the dishes have sauces which heavily feature maple syrup. (for pork, ham, tourtier, egg dishes etc.

I really wonder how you can ask such a question. It's not the fact that it is simply unture, its the fact that U would actually believe it to be true.
Why are americans so ignorant about Canada yet Canadians make such an effort to learn about the usa????
