Hi Salam,

If you mean in the following sentences -

1. adjective canadien /canadienne

Ma petite amie est canadienne My girlfriend is Canadian

Mon petit ami est canadien My boyfriend is Canadian

2. noun Canadien /Canadienne

Je connais un Canadien I know a Canadian man

Je connais une Canadienne = I know a Canadian woman

Take a look at the following Kwiziq lesson on nationalities for more explanation-

Hope this helps!
