ok I know you're trying to show how smart and cool you are..
I may have said that, ya. but when you compare the two countries... :roll:
Canada may have it's issues, but it's still far better than our southern neighbors.

Perceptions.
And I agree. But I don't agree because I compare us to them. I agree because I love this land. I was born here and I'm patriotic.
I've been there, and I like there too. I would live there without question if work or circumstance dictated it.
Each country is equally great in its own way.
You mean when you come illegally.
I am simply trying to show you how much of a hypocrite you are.
You may have? It was a direct quote. I copied and pasted it.
Still obsessing over us huh.
Far better in what ways? Have you done any comparison shopping? I mean ... as far as attitudes go, yours sounds pretty much like the kind you don't like.

naturally there are many more stupid americans than canadians, anyone checked their population
compared to ours recently, just makes sense to me. How would you like to cram 300 million people
into canada, yuk, not me. we would be too busy trying to get some elbow room to notice anyone
elses's stupidity, but others would be noticing ours.

get over it.
It's just my opinion that I believe that Canada is a better place to live than the USA imo.
well ok you want comparison?
we have better Health Care
we have better Education for our Children
we have a better fresh water supply
we Don't have the 2nd amendment (thank god!)
we don't have Capital Punishment..
We don't allow people who can't afford to buy a House, BUY a house
Our banks don't go into major Bankcruptcy
we don't spend money on things foolishly and so willingly
Are you back tracking now? Retreating from your original arrogant and hypocritical statements? Have you seen the error of your ways?
IMO I believe the USA is a better place to live.
This thread is getting ridiculous, for all intents & purposes the two countries are in a dead heat and among the top in the world and we should just take pleasure from that and quit bickering. Of course Canadians favour Canada and the Yanks favour the U.S. - that is natural and how it should be. :smile::smile:
ok that's your choice..
I can bet you that if you were one of the many Million living in Poverty in the USA, with no health coverage, very few comforts that you might not being so willing to say that.

Really? That is what you came up with in retort?
I can bet any Canadian living in poverty would not think Canada is such a great place to live either. lol
By the way, if you are living in poverty in the US you are covered 100% in regards to health care. 100%. You do not pay a dime.
I didn't see taxes in that. Compared them at all?
I just rolled the book over that I am reading...
USA- $14.95
Canada- $21.00
YIKES! A 223 Page paperback for $21
ya but we're covered no matter how much money you make here in Canada.. and they can't say no to you at the Hospital.
I have no idea what the difference in the pay intake vs cost of living is between the two countries.
I do believe though there is more security up here when it comes to financial stability and you need to be able to afford to buy a house and pay the mortgage up here.
I remember that little SNL skit they did back when numerous people in the USA had to abandon their homes when they could no longer afford to pay their mortgages...
btw you can't do that up in Canada, abandon your home.
it's because of the Dollar.
and also due to a few other things..
ya that's one thing I don't like is how things are cheaper there.
oh, that reminds me..
how the hell can they allow someone to purchase a $30,000 dollar car and give them 48 months to pay and only have like $230 /mth payments??
that's unheard of here in Canada.
heck if I were purchasing a $30,000 car in Canada.. First off it wouldn't be $30,000 and if you were to set up 48 mth payments you'd be paying like TWICE that amt!!
Canadian financial institutions are way more concerned about their well-being and financial stability..
which is why our banks didn't crap their pants when the economy went down the tubes.
How's the doctor shortage in your area?
Obviously plenty of them have disposable income enough they can come to Canada and make some folks envious.
Not so.... Never, ever, ever get hurt on a job here. My point is, security is a fleeting thing everywhere. Rarely is any crash purely a financial one.
Try living on a disability allowance in Ontario now that Hydro is a "for-profit" industry.
btw you can't do that up in Canada, abandon your home.[/QUOTE]
They cannot say no to you at the hospital down in the USA either. You don't know as much about us as you think now do you. The only difference is that if you don't have insurance and have a job you have to pay.
But I enjoy your attempts to move the goal posts around.
Perhaps you should before you make yourself look even more ridiculous.
That should have been the same down here but you know how the liberals can get.
"Every American has a right to own a home"
... and all that nonsense
Didn't see it. SNL... Saturday Night Live... an American show... you watch that? lol
In America we are free to abandon our homes, strip it of all the copper and sell it to the scrap yards, sell all the plumbing and cabinets and stuff before we abandon them too!
Say whaaat!
Do explain!
What don't you like about it? Why do you even care?
That comes out to $11,040.
LMFAO
If you know that car dealership, please direct me to their link.
I am pretty sure that is unheard of here.
Unless you are not factoring in a down payment. Did you leave that detail out?
LIKE NO SH*T Sherlock!
Yup, we have our issues too.
I have seen numerous TV commercials for American Car dealers.. who have their cars with their 48 month deals and their nice low payments!
and yes that's with down payments, etc.
but still.. there is no way you can get that sort of low payment up here for that sort of term.

So what is your problem with it?
You give them a down payment and they set up a nice 48 month low payment and low interest loan to sell a car off their lot.
What's the big deal?
I actually got one of those sweet loans recently myself! Only I pay $159 per month because of the amount of money I put down.
You see, both countries have their plusses and negatives.
Please, Chili.... They were practically giving cars away (as long as you make the payments) to keep GM afloat. They're still advertising zero down and zero delivery fees at a couple of dealerships here in Sudz.
