Canada and Denmark are both first world countries. For the most part, citizens of each country enjoy comfortable living standards; both countries have stable currencies, sturdy large scale and small-scale industry and a high economic dependence on foreign trade. Canada's primary trading partner is our closest neighbour the United States. We rely on the United States as an importer of roughly 87 percent of our exports, and as an exporter of roughly 61 percent of our imports. Similarly, Denmark relies on its neighbour Germany for the largest part of its imports and exports, but not at such a high percentage, as its trade is more evenly spread out to its other European neighbours: Sweden, Norway, France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. The Canadian dollar is more valuable than the Danish krone on the world market. The exchange rate is 4.69 kroner per Canadian dollar. Canada has a much higher Gross Domestic Product than Denmark, but Denmark has the fourth highest GDP per capita in the world, above both Canada and the United States. Canada�s population, at approximately 33 million, is over six times the size of Denmark�s population, at approximately 5.4 million, and the average life expectancies are both around 77-79. Canada is 231 times larger than Denmark in area.
