Sounds insane in a good way. I have never been really able to get into Civ 6 after how awesome Civ 5 was (still play it to this day and only have 20-40 hours in Civ 6 with 1700+ in Civ 5) but this might change it. Learning new mechanics is just too much of a time sink for me, but this expansion sounds worth it.
On the other side, we’ve replaced the Warmonger score with Grievances. This acts as a tug-of-war between a pair of players – if you’ve ever been at the receiving end of a surprise attack and retaliated by taking a few cities, I think you’ll appreciate how this system has been updated. The other leaders are now likely to feel that such a countermove was entirely appropriate.

Most civs are lazy if you want to go there (Japan with their Samurai, Germany and the Panzer, Russia with the Cossack, England and the Redcoat etc). Canada being a young place, you have to go with what the world knows, I guess.Not sure how I feel about the Canada civ. I like playing for cultural and diplomatic victories, but the abilities seem kind of lazy. Hockey rinks, Mounties and tundra bonuses aren't exactly creative ideas. Also seems like their theme song is just the anthem? That's disappointing.
The one thing I do like is the Four Faces of Peaces ability.
I really like the Maori though, starting in the ocean is neat. I like civs with really unique abilities like that, I still miss Venice for that reason.

That's true, I understand where they are coming from with most of the abilities and I do think it will be a fun civ to play that has it's own niche.
The theme song being the anthem is still really disappointing since the music is so great in this game, I would have loved to hear their rendition of some other much better and more interesting song.

I love how Canada can't be dicks and other people can't be dicks to Canada in terms of declaring war.
Canada is one of the world leaders in hypocrisy (the nice stereotype is just passive/aggressiveness combined with a deathly fear of conflict, the classic Anglo-Saxon failing) but that wouldn't have made for compelling gameplay mechanics.
Yeah, I’d hate to play your version.
So Civ 6 is available for switch and I am tempted. I tried a Civ game a few years ago but quit pretty quickly (blame I had alot of stuff going on at the time).
How is it getting a handle on it.
