Is Canada becoming less like Europe (liberal, sceptical) and more like US (conservative, religious) and why?

Update:

And I know Canada's never been as liberal as Europe but it seems to be Americanizing very fast

    Yes, very much so. A perfect example is the Canadian Liberal Party which has had a significant drift to the right in the past 10 - 15 years.

    See the political compass ...

    2007 elections: http://www.politicalcompass.org/canada2008

    Even the Canadian Green Party has now drifted into the right, though mostly in terms of their fiscal policy. And as you can see, the Canadian Conservative Party is now on par or near where the US Republican Party stands on the political compass.
