For geographical purposes... Re-reading your comment. Ok i'll give it to you, thats even something i might have said myself. It doesnt deserve all the downvotes. Thing is with Trumps 51st state push, canadians have become vert sensitives with being called américains.

For geographical purposes he’s still wrong. If you’re Canadian you were taught the 7-continent model in school growing up. There is no “American” continent.

That fella is using a primitive and culturally reductive unified America continent model which does not apply to the people who live here.
