McGill is most definitely not trying to emulate a U.S. university, as one PP remarked. If they did, then boy oh boy there's a whole laundry list of things they should be doing differently: getting rah-rah about their sports teams, considering a kid's extracurriculars on the college app, adding more dorm housing and providing more hand-holding of students, eliminating the weekly "open air pub" on the college green for students (which unfortunately stopped during the pandemic...my DC loved OAP nights...), accepting tuition payments in US dollars -- the list goes on.
From everything I've seen, Canadians in general and McGill specifically are quite secure in their "Canadian-ness" and are not trying to be American.
+1 and hurrah for that!
