From another comment below:

In the US, fixed rates are for a 30 year term. Countries like Canada and Australia have 10 year terms as a max, with most people electing for something shorter as the rate goes down.

You can get fixed rates on shorter mortgages in the US. I have been quoted fixed rates on 15 and 20 year mortgages in the past month.
