@rookie54 saidI just laugh it off as you don't know what the hell you're talking about. Ask a Canadian Native and they will explain it to you. You can't see the difference even by looking at them.
"we have always called", is not an argument, it is an excuse for ignorance
OR go here and read and learn:
Ravens (seen right here) often travel in pairs, while crows (left) are seen in larger groups. Also, study the tail as the bird flies overhead. A crow's tail is shaped like a fan, while the raven's tail appears wedge-shaped or triangular. ... Crows give a cawing sound, but ravens produce a lower croaking sound.

@earl-of-trumps saidFinally, someone with a brain! 😉
crows are not ravens, jeeeesh
a raven is about 40% heavier than a crow. broader shoulders. just bigger overall.
Some are smaller but the tail always tells the story of rather they are raven or crow.

@torunn saidHis unhappiness about it might inspire him to write a truly great opera. (The best ones, like Madam Butterfly, are not very happy).

@ghost-of-a-duke saidWhy did Puccini write operas about such devastated women - all of them? Was he an unhappy man?
His unhappiness about it might inspire him to write a truly great opera. (The best ones, like Madam Butterfly, are not very happy).
