영문 초록

Since the beginning of the 20th century, especially since the Second World War, Americanization has been posing a grave threat to Canada. The appearance of such a situation was not accidental but has the deep-rooted political, economic and cultural reasons. In the paper; the Author first expounds the situations of Canadian Americanization and Canadian nationalists’ worrying, and then analyzes the reasons of Canadian Americanization. The Author thinks that although Canada will not lose her cultural identity under the influences of Americanization in future, it is still difficult for Canada to totally avoid it.
