In a brief response to other papers presented as part of a symposium entitled "What's So Canadian About Canadian Educational Administration," at the 1978 Annual Meeting of the American Educational Research Association, the author argues against seeing Canada as merely an extension of the United States, or seeing his own Quebec as merely an extension of Canada. Differences between these regions exist for social, cultural, historical, political, geographical, and even psychological reasons, and any attempt to ignore those differences will cause problems. The different regions can serve, however, as proving grounds for testing theories of educational administration, and, by working within their own appropriate sociocultural frameworks, can help expand the base on which administrative knowledge is built.
