		The major difference between a Canadian province and a Canadian territory is that a province is a creation of the Constitution Act, while a territory is created by federal law.
		Provinces have a great deal of power relative to the federal government, having a large measure of control over spending on social programs such as medicare, education, employment insurance, and the like.
		Provincial legislatures are unicameral, having no Senate, and operate on a procedure similar to that of the Canadian House of Commons.

		Canadian officials are expressing concern about President George W. Bush's decision to build a national missile defense shield because missiles intercepted by the system could land in Canadian territory -- perhaps even population centers.
		Another Canadian Department of National Defense report acknowledged that, but also said that there may not be enough U.S. interceptors to prevent Canadian cities from being hit.
		Canadian military sources say the U.S. is not expected to ask Canada to participate in the construction or maintenance of the shield, unless the Canadian government expresses an interest to participate -- which it has not done.

	Canadian Forces Maritime Experimental Test Range, Nanoose Bay, BC, CANADA
		Canadian Forces Maritime Experimental Test Range, CFMETR, on Nanoose Bay, on the east coast of Vancouver Island, less than 100 km from Vancouver, is the location, not only of maritime weapons tests by the USA, but also it is also the destination for many nuclear-powered and nuclear-weapons capable ships of the USA military.
		Canadian taxpayers now pay $10 million for the maintenance of this facility; essentially we are glorified caretakers and housekeepers; roles that no society respects, least of all the USA.
		The Canadian Department of National Defence's own study in 1995 showed that the sea bed at Nanoose Bay has had "93,000 kilometres of copper wire, and tons of lead, lithium batteries, smoke flares, sonobuoy entrails and other toxic materials" dumped on it by the US Navy's activities.

	Can Native Sovereignty Coexist with Canadian sovereignty
		Canadian constitution says that "Indians, and lands reserved for Indians" is a matter of federal jurisdiction.

		If the Canadian state permits it, then, yes there is but I think that this would take a great number of years, unfortunately a battle, and then finally a peaceful coexistence because a compromise would be established and perhaps the government and the Non-aboriginal people would feel less threatened.

	Missile Defense Proposal Sparks Fierce Canadian Debate
		VICTORIA, British Columbia — The Canadian government’s refusal to rule out the installation of U.S. missile defense radar on Canadian soil, has sparked a political firestorm, with some government members of Parliament (MPs) joining the opposition in their objections to the Pentagon’s system.

	The Fundamentals of Canadian Defense and Foreign Policy
		This is the justification for the generation of American and Canadian oratory about the “undefended border.” In fact, there were repeated thoughts on the unthinkable subject—in the Venezuelan crisis (1895-96), during the Alaskan boundary dispute (1898-1903), and in the thinking of some Canadian military men down to 1914 and even, mirabile dictu, in the 1920’s.
		Canadian external policy (so called because so much of it is with the British, who are not foreigners, and Americans, whom Canadians do not think of as foreigners) has always, for the general reasons given earlier, had to operate in a complex of political, legal, and sentimental atmospheres more intricate than is usual.
		Canadian policy is therefore concerned to preserve this character and to develop the peacekeeping capacities of the U.N. whenever and however it may be possible.
