Canadians! And those who know things anyway.

Could someone please explain to me the difference between colleges and universities in Canada? I am under the impression that colleges are more vocational and universities are more academic in focus. Can you get degrees from colleges, or is it different qualifications altogether? This is just for a footnote, so I do not need too much detail, but I am befuddled by what I find on google.
