this could be a bias for me, i have lived in some pretty remote places in america but haven’t spent long periods of time on other continents

No, it's the result of you being so immersed in your own culture (I guess). I am sure if you go live somewhere else for a long period of time, it'll become more clearer to you what is distinctive about Canadian culture. (I've live in Canada for a while, and I can tell you that there are many things that make Canadian culture unique.) 🙂

What is an optimal immigration policy?

i think you’re onto something here.

i’m canadian, and i would have a hard time identifying many of the things that makes canadian culture unique.

maybe this is a result of north america being settled so recently, and having so many converging cultures pour in at once.

a few generations from now, it might be easier to identify american or canadian culture at a glance.
