"Americans"? Are Canadians included? (They are part of "America" being half of the North American continent and weed is legal there) Including Canada probably skews the results. Also a breakdown by age/region would be interesting.

By population Canada is 1/10 the size of the US. And when does American not refer to people from the USA? Do people outside the US ever really identify them selves as Americans?

Many Spanish speakers do use 'Americano' to refer to the Americas as a whole.

Not 1/10th. 1/8.3th.

Both say they’re discussing US adults, in particular.
