A Canadaphile (also called Canadophile, Canadiophile, Canadaphilic[1] or Canadaphiliac[2]) is a person who admires Canada, its people, culture, and languages (mainly English and French).[3][4][5][6][7]

The word is derived from the country of Canada and Ancient Greek φίλος philos, "friend." Its antonym is Canadophobe.
