2p! Canada's hair is notably longer than his 1p!s. Oftentimes, he is depicted with a small amount of stubble on his face and bags under his darker-colored eyes. Sometimes, they are obscured by sunglasses. He is most commonly shown wearing red flannels with jeans or the uniform of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.

It is common for 2p!s to be portrayed as murderous and obsessive. To most, they are a darker version of the original nations. However, because the original nations can be portrayed in the same way by the fandom, how much hold this has depends on the person making the story, artwork, or cosplay.

Canada has been known to use a hockey stick in his fights, with the hockey stick is mostly being portrayed with barbed wire. He is also been shown to have a strong hatred towards poachers and is willing to kill them.

2p! Netherlands - 2p! Netherlands may have a crush on 2p! Canada.

2p! Seychelles - In one depiction, 2p! Seychelles is shown to not notice 2p! Canada, which makes him annoyed. In another, she sort of gets along with him, though they rarely talk.
