Note
A regular -s plural that covers more than people. Besides natives and inhabitants of Canada, it can mean several Canadian canoes, as distinct from kayaks, and, informally, the national championships, as in heading to the Canadians. The adjective never takes the -s: it is Canadian teams, never Canadians teams, because the plural belongs to the noun alone.
