The USA is America, and claiming that Mexicans ,Cubans, or Canadians are Americans is just weird manifest destiny bullshit. Go to a bar in Toronto or Windsor and tell the locals that they are actually Americans and you'll get your ass beaten.

Canadians are basically Americans with some English and French seasoning

I have literally made this joke in no fewer than a dozen bars in Toronto and everyone thinks it's funny.
