Is the Canadian or US cpa harder?

The pass rates are not really comparable due to Canada having higher level of pre-reqs. It seems like Canada wants a very diverse range of knowledge as part of the CPA program is literal group presentations.

Whereas America is rather straight testing of knowledge?

America is much more straightforward but expected higher level of competence in the technical grasp of accounting? Fair to say?

Also, I find that in Canada, everyone takes the CPA program just cause its sort of mandatory over here wheras in USA I think the people who take it tend to be more serious with all those additional credits so I assume the passrates are further reflection of it being harder?

Just deciding between either one lol.
