 ==Canadian English's unique position==
 ===Words and idioms===
Canada, the Commonwealth country with the largest native-born English-speaking population outside of Britain, is unique in that its standard vocabulary, idiom, and accent tend to coincide with that of neighbouring speakers in the United States far more than with those of Britain or the rest of the Commonwealth.  Most of the distinctive terms Britons identify as ''[[American English]]'' are used by Canadians as well, such as ''[[diaper]]'', ''[[gasoline]]'', ''[[elevator]]'', and ''[[apartment]]''. See also [[North American English]].
 
 ===Canadian spelling===
 There is no universally accepted standard of Canadian spelling, and standards differ from one area of English-speaking Canada to another.
