Canadian Life A to Z

I'm trying one way to observe the typical lifestyle of a country: let Google tell you. I am doing this on Google.ca, recording what follows each single letter that I enter, to see the most searched words starting with each letter. Here's the list:
A: Air Canada
B: Best Buy Canada
C: Canadian Tire
D: Dictionary.com
E: Ebay
F: Facebook
G: Gmail
H: Hotmail
I: Ikea
J: Job Bank
K: Kijiji
L: London Drugs
M: Mapquest
N: NHL
O: OSAP
P: Plenty of fish
Q: Quotes
R: Rogers
S: Sears Canada
T: TD Canada Trust
U: Urban Dictionary
V: Via Rail
W: Weather Network
X: XS Cargo
Y: Youtube
Z: Zellers

My comments on this list: Canadianized, commercialized, urbanized, electronicalized, google-ized!
