Are there any good Canadian/American American/Canadian dictionaries you can recommend? How about phrase books?

There's no need. Canadians speak English and Americans speak English.
See there's no difference in languages.

NEVER attempt to replace your Canadian with American!
Canadian sounds more posh and give one a bit of panache, eh?
After all... Canadians celebrate Victoria Day,
Yanks celebrate Groundhog Day --- THINK ABOOT IT!
Besides...
Think of Canadians and you think of Sergent Preston of the Yukon and his wonder-dog Yukon King ...
Think of Yanks and you think of the Keystone Cops.
Besides...
You'll have to learn to think in the imperial system instead of the metric system. That's a step backwards, eh?
Besides...
"But officer -- I was only going 70" doesn't work in the USA!
Besides... you sound more intelligent if you speak Canadian:
"Going oot and aboot" sound more intelligent than:
"Hangin' out," eh?
Besides...
You'll be more sensuous and have a mystique aboot you if you use your "Canadian fromage" for bait.

you will basically join the gang right here in Canada. we are from around the international. Hispanic is basically yet another be conscious. you may wish a commerce or qualification in call for in Canada, so which you would be able to get a job, and artwork adventure. additionally, good wellbeing, a sparkling criminal checklist and approximately $10 000 to maintain your self at a similar time as you job hunt.

Well, I was thinking of moving to Mexico, but realized that learning Mexican would be too much. I already studied Spanish for 4 years, but I've never been to Spain.
Maybe Argentinian would be easier. :-)

Basically, it's just like Canadian, but with more "English" and less "Franglish."

Just say sofa instead of chesterfield and soda instead of pop, and add "ice" before any activity that takes place on ice, even though it OBVIOUSLY takes place on ice.
Oh and pencil crayons, they call them coloring pencils or something.
