Differences between Canadian and American music terms

Leading note or leading tone? In Canada, you'll hear the term leading note to refer to the seventh scale degree. In the U.S., you'll hear the term leading tone. It's only a small difference, but a difference, nonetheless.
When I first moved to Canada from the U.S., I was confused by the Canadian system for naming chords. For example, a C Major chord, symbolized as C+ in Canada, means a C augmented chord in the U.S.! (An augmented chord in Canada is symbolized as Cx). A C minor chord is symbolized as Cm or cm in the U.S. but becomes C- in Canada. Fortunately the two countries have agreed about what to call a diminished chord, either C dim or C with a small "o" placed in the upper half of the chord name).
Having studied music in both countries, I have also noticed that Canadians from the U.K. call quarter notes, crochets and eighth notes, quavers. Then it suddenly struck me that, back at college, we used to refer to the sixty fourth note as a hemisemidemiquaver! (Students think they're very clever when they can use this term. It's right up there with "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!")
