Canada has a federal system like the US but they have provinces (and territories) rather than states. There are 10 provinces, which are Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan. There are three territories (with more limited self government), which are are the Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and Yukon.

Canada does have regions that are like states in the USA, but they're not called states. We have 10 provinces, and 3 territories. Most of them are a lot bigger than your states in the land area they cover.

I beleive they are provinces rather than states because they have less power in relation to the federal government than a state does. Australia, like Canada, is part of the Commonwealth but is divided into states. Their states have greater autonomy than the Canadian provinces.

And our provinces are much larger than your states. So is Canada, for that matter.
