## Biography

Matthew was born as a personification of Canada. When he was a toddler, he was really close to Francis Bonnefoy, the personification of France. However, Francis knew it was time to introduce him to Arthur Kirkland, the personification of England. When Francis did, Matthew also met Alfred F. Jones, the personification of America who is also his brother. But Alfred wasn't interested even though he and Matthew looked alike.

Matthew's "invisibility" seemed to dawn on him since then. But he also got a pet polar bear named Kumajiro as a child. But Kumajiro forgot the Canadian personification's name and almost always asked him, "who are you?". Matthew didn't remember Kumajiro's exact name, either, calling him random nicknames. But they are still close companions.

## Personality & Interests

Matthew is shy, sensitive, calm and quiet. Despite this, he almost always gets mistaken for his brother Alfred, similar to how Anouk gets mistaken for Katrina. When Matthew is not mistaken for Alfred, he is usually overlooked and ignored. He has great skill in playing ice hockey. In fact, his goal is to one day play hockey for a living. He also is good at cooking food, especially pancakes. He loves maple syrup, and sometimes will offer it for someone else's foods.

Matthew has an interest in Canadian wildlife, especially beavers, moose, polar bears and Canada geese. He already has a pet polar bear named Kumajiro. When Katrina named a gander after the Canadian personification, Matthew was initially confused at the idea, but liked it eventually.

Matthew is a really good tactician. He and Arthur once tricked Alfred into opening a letter that has a note saying "there are snacks inside".

## Appearance

Matthew is a tall young man (teenage boy until 2022) with fair skin, blond hair and violet eyes. He also wears glasses. His military uniform consists of a tan winter coat. His casual wear is usually a red and white hoodie with a maple leaf on it. He also wears violet pants and dark purple shoes. In The Crossover Race and some SevenSuperWomen cartoons, he wears a teal hoodie, tan pants and white shoes.

## Relationships

### Katrina

Matthew and Katrina had massive crushes on each other during the spring of 2017. But one day during the same year, Katrina confessed her feelings for Matthew, to which the Canadian personification accepted. They dated ever since. One of Matthew's main goals is to propose to Katrina so they eventually get married.

### Kumajiro

Matthew adopted Kumajiro when he was a kid. The pet polar bear can talk, which makes him a special pet. Kumajiro rarely (if ever) remembers his owner's name, though the two were always close.

### Alfred/America

Matthew and Alfred are brothers. Their bond depends on the situation. They sometimes argue over petty things, and Matthew once ranted on Alfred for 3 hours straight, making him cry in the process. However, this is all because Alfred and Matthew are typical brothers, and they do have a strong bond at times.

### Anouk

Matthew and Anouk appear to be on good terms, mainly because they're both shy and "invisible" to others. Anouk usually empathizes with the Canadian personification, though Katrina won't always let her go near him, as Matthew is Katrina's boyfriend.

### Lukas/Norway

Lukas is one of the few Hetalia personifications (other than Francis) to recognize Matthew. In fact, Matthew and Lukas are best friends. They are often teammates on crossover competition shows as a result.

### Francis/France

Matthew and Francis appear to be on good terms. When he was very young, Matthew was really close to Francis, even viewing him as his mentor. However, Francis eventually introduced him to Arthur and Alfred. Nevertheless, they are still close friends.
