As a Canadian, I've always been curious about whether we call the sport "football" or "soccer." After some research, I found that Canadians primarily use the term "soccer" to refer to the game played with a round ball and feet. The word "football" is usually reserved for American or Canadian football, which is a different sport altogether.
