Canada is part of US

Average Americans think Canada is part of US or just one of states. Even the recent sensation of IBM's Watson thinks that way as well.

In the second round Jeopardy on 20110215 Tue, host Alex Trebek asked “Its largest airport was named for a World War II hero; its second largest, for a World War II battle.”  The category was US Cities. The two human contestants wrote “What is Chicago?" , and  Watson answered Toronto. Watson's answer confirms even the computers think Canada is part of US.

Another evidence people think Canada is a state of US: On Freeway 101 close to SFO San Francisco International Airport, a sign reads "Air Canada Use Domestic Terminal". Will someone take a picture and link it?

Will Canada lodge a formal diplomatic protest to Hillary? Does Canada even have diplomats?
