Canadians, do you sometimes dream you were an American citizen instead?

America is a great country and there a still a few freedoms left but most of the good ones are gone.
Canada on the other hand is a very chillaxed place and we dont seem to feel the need to control what the rest of the world is doing.
We help if and where we can....after that we just live and let live.

I also hate the huge taxes and expensive goods, but I love the country.

I'm sure they do dream that every once in a while.
But then they wake up all wet and sweaty and say thank god it was only a nightmare

No fucking way. I love being Canadian, thanks. I'm sure being American has it's merits, and my mother is an American born and bred, but I'm quite content where I am thanks.Comment

The one major benifit of the US is that you can live in any climate that you want. In canada you got Victoria and Vancouver if you dont like the snow. But you get the rain and cold still.
That could change though if that caribbean island becomes part of canada as they are talking about.XXXRewards - Karups - Boyfun - Jawked. Paying on time since 1997. Contact me at brent [at] xxxrewards.comComment

Why would they ? They have Health Care, The High Octane Beer and Way better Strip Clubs then We do

If nothing else what makes us Canadians is our pride that we are not AmericansComment

benefits?? setting aside health care and that we dont have bush in power but the prestige?? seriously, why do so many americans walk around with a canadian lapel pin?? When travelling they dont want to be known as americans for fear of being shot at. They get treated better when thought of as being canadians. Not much prestige in getting shot at now is there??Originally posted by DarkJedi

We love americans - even the arrogant mis-informed ones like you DarkjediComment

your partly right actually overall health between the two countries being canada is #1 seeing the health care plans are better.. canada doesn't need a fulltime army seeing the USer's will always back canadians up.. after all they are using/eating our resources up 'water' ect like candy it's a back scratching affair also we were fucked on the *freetrade* scam too..Originally posted by zzgundamnzz
Must be cool to live in Canada. I got family there and they always talk about going to the denstist, hospital for free.
But then again Canada can afford that cause instead of paying for a military they could put the funds into healthcare.
We can't do that in the US
it's a (tit for tat) thing they need us we need them sorta?
canada is cleaner place and a great place for out door life if your into it also realestate is cheaper amongst other things there's some places I do enjoy in the states but I don't think i'd want to hang my hat there long term probably there's more interest for me in other countries (EU)ect...
my opinion

Namely?benefits
Only in your own mind. There's a reason US journalists and tourists wear Canadian flags. It must suck to be embarrassed of your own country. No wonder so many Americans feel the need to try to convince themselves of untruths on a daily basis.prestigeComment

Ok let me digest this question for a sec.... Alright! We have free health care, clean cities and water, hockey just to name a few. And the U.S. has the worlds laughing stock George W. Bush. I think i will stay canadian thanks!

I can't think of a single reason why I'd rather live in the US than Canada.
Unless there was some very amazing offer of money or power or something silly, I'd never move there.Comment

never, i'll always be a canadian.
but i may end up moving somewhere warmer to live in the usa some day, i'll always keep a home in canada though.This dog, is dog, a dog, good dog, way dog, to dog, keep dog, an dog, idiot dog, busy dog, for dog, 20 dog, seconds dog!

look at it another way alot of movie celebs are buying here (vancouver bc) and investing in huge amounts of realestate like myself.. the only attraction from the USA is the money earnings I can hit the exchange rate and bank it and invest it here in canada.. the taxes in CAL is horrible and probably the only place I would maybe want to live in is florida now thats a 'slim maybe'..Originally posted by Rich
What most people don't realize is, our military isn't THAT pathetic. Our ships and subs are, but we have troops to stop any would be renegade attack against us. We have troops to deal with native uprisings, even potential riots or whatever. We have planes to shoot down hijacked airliners, like the one that got intercepted by 2 CF-18s last week. In America having 20 million fucking F-16's doesn't help when your "President" lets attacks happen instead of shooting down hijacked planes.
We don't have an offensive army, because guess what, we don't invade countries. We don't have an army to fight in a world war, because guess what, we don't start world wars. During WWII we kicked serious ass. In Afghanistan we're kicking serious ass today. During 1812 we kicked YOUR ass. America should have standard health care too like every other civilized nation, but Republicans would rather play star wars.

This isn't so much, for the most part... we held them off. The US tried to take over Canada to have sole possession of the great lakes. Canada held them off for years until Britain was able to come in and burn down Washington as a form of proverbial bitch slap.Originally posted by Rich

We didn't kick their asses, but we sure as hell made them think twice about whether or not they could kick ours

And inherit your debt?!?! Are you kidding? We Canadians have had a balanced budget for about 6 years now.Originally posted by DarkJedi

Pay off at least some of your debt first, THEN send me a brochure, and I'll think about it.
American Republicans are more reckless spenders than Canadian liberals - what the fuck is up with that? The wheels have fallen off the American bus.Comment

Great to see his ass booted out of the playoffs last night. Hopefully he'll play this summer at the World Cup so he can get his ass kicked again, but I suspect he'll pussy out.
BTW don't move to the states. Sooner or later they'll find a way to draft you.Comment
