Hey buddy, I agree completely. After seeing how the rest of the world works, the slow retarded pace of Canada, and the hypocricy of Canadians I plan on getting the fuck out. I will be revoking my citizenship at some point as well.

Passive shit talking useless citizens.

Hockey and beer is our national identity. How fucking SAD. I could go on for hours.

While I can understand where your anger is coming from, don't you think you're going a tad overboard here? Your above statements are ridiculous! You are angry about one specific case, and yes it's a boned-up outcome to that case, but come on, it is crazy to say Canada is soft on murderers. There are plenty of cases where someone committed murder and is now doing 25 to life for it.

does the name Paul Bernardo ring any bells for ya?

Anyone reading the papers or watching Canadian news with any regularity would know that of the murder cases we do have, when found guilty most of them get 20 or 25 to life. If I'm wrong and you're right, then who are all those inmates up in Stony Mountain penitentiary and what are they doing in maximum security? (hint: it's about 20 km north of Winnipeg)

By the way, crime rate? Winnipeg has about 700,000 people, and we get on average about 20-25 murders per year. Dude, there are US cities who get that many over an average weekend.

Another instance I was left feeling completely let down by our justice system was the 2 sewer rodents getting acquitted of the Air India bombings.

Disgusting

That being said, this is still one of the best countries, if you can get past some of its shortcomings :2 cents:

I agree, the justice system here is a fucking joke and our polititians are as crooked as my dick.

Not to mention the lack of a military

One of the nicer things about Canada is that you are free to leave anytime.

Giddyup.

The door is over here get the fuck out

schooling
 

In Canada you don't need to worry about your kids getting shot down in the lunchroom.

why dont you blame the chinese in vancouver instead of the justice system?

they are basically to blame for 80% of murders.

Oh man, now you've done it.

Nice knowing you. http://members.shaw.ca/billy1-99/pics/runaway.gif

ya, our politicians are crooked, our law system is a joke, but can you honestly say that this is the only country like that? Give me a fucking break.. No matter what country you live in ALL politicians are crooked and in most cases, if you have the money, you can buy your way out out shit when it comes to the law. So what, you're gonna move to another country, find out it sucks, bitch and whine and move to another country? you will be repeating that for the rest of your life than. The reason our gov. is so crooked and gets away with it is because people leave instead of fighting our gov.

People need to start banding together and putting the government in its place. Till then we will keep getting fucked over constantly. Moving will not accomplish anything. If I knew more people that thought the same way as me when it comes to our government I would get them all together and we would try to change things. Of course, the majority of people that complain about the gov. are nothing but talkers.. Action is not something they are willing to do. I'm willing to try to change things, but doing it alone will do absolutely nothing.

he is NINETEEN, how could he become a politician? cant you read what he said. well the US rocks for sure, Canada can, it just depends of your financial situation. being rich is no pain wherever you live but if i were poor i may prefer Canada ;)

You can run to be a politician at the age of 18 in Canada,... not sure anyone would vote for you at that age
Your only 19 and still have much to learn about the world, so if you want to move to the USA then I say go for it.

:1orglaugh

that smiley is so true!

Hey, I just moved from Holland to Canada, I am afraid Canada isn't that bad at all, shit happens all over the world...

Hard to argue with that.... you have a point, oh yeah I left Canada over 4 years ago and the truth, I really don't miss it. :2 cents:


So if you leave our home and native land what skills can you bring with you to another country? Just a question. :)

I will back you up 100% on this.

Does the name Karla Homolka ring a bell?

We don't need homo dorks in Oz and it is a sad fact that Aussies do live in Oz so I will pleased you wont be coming to live here.

Lyn

Canada doesn't need a military. The U.S.A. protects Canada.

Bingo. You'll appreciate Canada the older you get. It's a miraculous place the more you travel and live elsewhere.

what % income gets taxed in Canada?

maybe i should run for office up there then

I'm not really anti Canadian. I like Canadians, and Vancouver is one of the most beautiful cities in the World but 30 years of living there is long enough for me. Taxes are absurdly high all so the goverment can hand it over to the poor, stupid and lazy through social programs. No thanks.

Try being an asian male in Canada.

The racial profiling is fucking disgusting.

I've been stopped in a Viper, ML430, and G35 due to racial profiling.

Asian and East Indian males make up only about 99.9999991% of violent offenders in Vancouver.

So you are saying racial profiling is okay? A 30+ year old man is okay to be stopped driving luxury cars at rolling road blocks or safety checks?

So do you now feel like a cock sucker instead? ;)

1 BILLION dollar gun registry and NOTHING to show for it?



At least Americans can see a war being fought with their money... as a Canadian I don't even get to see where we piss our money away.


It's NOT spent here:

1. Hospitals
2. Education
3. Roads
4. Transport
5. Military
6. Policing
7. Space program


So where is it all going?

If it's an effective method of reducing crime rates, then I say fuck it go for it. Don't like it? Maybe the Asian community can keep their children from shooting at each other in nightclubs.

It's like when you're waiting in line in the airport to be screened, and the inspectors are randomly checking an 80 year old grandmother from China's bag just so when they ask Habib and Akim to check their luggage too their feelings won't be hurt. Ridiculous.

aren't hand gund banned in the 'down under, outback' areas of the planet too'?

and the million dollar answer is:

WASTING MONEY ON WELFARE FRENCH LOSERS TO ACHIEVE VOTES


ding ding

National identity????


We're so watered down with people who come here and NEVER learn english, who never adopt 1 ounce of Canadian Culture ( What is it anymore? Oh yeah, Canadian Culture = sit around and bash Americans )


Canada has turned into a place where every little group gets to carve out a piece of pie for itself, leaving the country a shattered group of people with absolutely no sense of national pride.


Canadians. What do we do? We drink beer, play hockey, and sit on the fence and bad mouth Americans.

Sooner or later the Liberal goverment will probably give all the land back to the Natives. It's just the right thing to do.

Actually, it's the East Indians. They've adopted black American gun culture as their own. I would not be shocked to find a Shiva statue with the face of 50 Cent, bling hanging from it's neck, and a gun in each of the 4 or 6 hands.

Bro, has it reduced it? Nope. People still getting shot in Richmond, still getting shot in Vancity, it does nothing but pisses off those of us who aren't triad, who aren't part of an EI crew.

I dont care what your mother or grade school teacher told.

One person can never make a difference.

True enough. I'm not for randomly stopping wealthy Asian's around the city. Random racial profiling like that is ridiculous.

Howerver, if the police want to stop every SUV full of Easy Indian males driving around the Ozone in Surrey, or stop cars full of young Asian males that are circling Richmond Sushi at 3:00AM, then I'm all for it. On the same hand, I have no problem with grabbing up white Trash circling in their pickup trucks in the trailer parks.

Yea. But god forbid you let them outside to go play.

Not only will they get their ass beat to death by the other kids. Those kids get to walk.
