You can't compare them precisely because of the rest of Rousseau's reasoning. The US is a sports-mad country, so in many ways their Colleges developed into sports training grounds and academics sometimes seems to take a back seat or becomes a bit secondary. In Canadian Universities, academics have always been and will always be the focus, and sports are just generally something on the side (especially in comparison to the States).
