Hi,
I'm going to say United States based on my experience I've had.

@TommyDordo Ooh! Tough question! I imagine unless you have 'one foot in the U.S.' and 'the other in Canada', there's no way to tell. :flushed:

Why do you think so? I did some testing and noticed that Bing Canada has fewer features than Bing US. Have you noticed any difference in favor of Bing Canada?

There is,

you're using Bing on the Internet, not physically stepping your foot in it.

on the Internet, your location in identified by your IP address. VPNs can change your IP address and allow you to access content from other locations.

 

@HotCakeX While I did not know that "VPNs can change your IP address and allow you to access content from other locations," I was seriously joking about having 'one foot in the U.S.' and 'the other in Canada.' You do get that (the joke), though, correct? (It is) because (both) the U.S. and Canada border each other? One foot here and the other there?    ...hmmm. Maybe I am not as funny as I like to be- sometimes. :flushed:

Meanwhile, 'the question' (Diff. between Bing U.S. and Bing Canada), I still believe is a tough one (for me to answer), because I may not understand why- or how useful it would be to- someone would want to change the/ their location on 'the regular.' What- if any- would be the point of doing so? (Please.)

In other words, How does a person use both at the same time? Why would a person use both at the same time?:suprised:

There are lots of reasons, many content are region locked on the internet, like Netflix library, Spotify, YouTube etc.
your region on the internet = your IP address.
there are many features in different software or services that are available to certain regions.
Bing is also using this technique.
VPNs are not the only things that can change your location, there are proxies too.

@TommyDordo Please, forgive my ignorance. The question (you posed), "between Bing United States and Bing Canada which one has the most features? Which of the two is updated more frequently and new features added ahead of time?is hard for me to answer because I do not use Bing Canada. It is also hard for me to understand why- or how, for that matter- a person could/ would switch between the two as needed to make such observations. :flushed:

@HotCakeX Be that as it may. But, HOW does your response help answer the question (of): "between Bing United States and Bing Canada which one has the most features? Which of the two is updated more frequently and new features added ahead of time?", please?

Well it's kinda obvious, you use a VPN of US or Canada and test Bing, check which features are available in each region.
