"Why Canada sucks .... By a Canadian"

"Not getting into a long debate on the whys just saying it how it is

1st - joke of a justice system ....honestly I really can't believe how much of a joke it really is

2nd - how our culture takes a back seat to immigrant culture.....we are so worried of offending a certain religion or culture that we will change our own

3rd - universal health care..... Waiting times are crazy it just dosent work..... Me or none of my family of 5 have a family doctor and if I needed an important surgery or specialized equipment I'm looking at a wait time of min 8 months

4 - how much of my our money is going to native people... Like seriously enough is enough me or my family never made any treaties we are all Canadians and should be treated equal .... No more special treatment with court cases ( how crazy is that) just because they are native they get a more lenient sentence ..... By LAW.....puke.

5 - our military........ Seriously I don't need to explain here .... Nothing against our soilders ...... Best in the world IMO .... Just the lack of funding and equipment etc....

6 - end rant ..........merry Christmas ...... Sorry I'm not allowed to say that.... Happy holida..... Ahh fuck it"

#1. Compare people in prison in the USA to Canada, it's 10 to 1, yet we have less crime?
seems the justice system works better than the US one.....

#2. Canada celebrates multiculturalism, it's a different approach than America where you give it up to become American.

#3. Health care works. Sick people get treated, operations happen. The system works. My Dad got a quad bypass when he needed it. I got helath care when I needed it. Canada has less debt per person than America and a health care system envied by the world. You're an idiot if you think we have bad health care, we have great health care and no one goes bankrupt or looses their house cause they can't pay their doctor bills. I know MANY Americans who lost their homes and virtually everything to pay their medical bills.

#4 Actually natives are a small percentage of the population. Are there problems, yes, but both natives and the government are trying to move forward and make it better. In Canada our native population is similar to the black ghettos in the USA, but we give them healthcare, housing, welfare checks and free education to try and break the cycle. What exactly does America do for the black people in the ghettos? oh yeah, gun laws so they can all shoot each other dead......

#5. I agree our military is underfunded. We're friendly with most nations, it's America that everyone wants to kill.


Given the choice to live in the USA or Canada, I'd pick Canada. I don't mean this in a bad way and I pray it doesn't happen, but one of the nations you've pissed off is going to sneak in a nuke and vaporize one of your cities very soon. IT'LL HAPPEN. I'm happy in Canada.

Number 2 sounds like America... We need to stop being such pussy's changing the way we live to not affend others...

"affend"?

WWWWWWWTF?

:2 cents:

Are you really that lame to spell check someone on gfy?

yeah, i didn't want to lick your face, you seem skuzzy


affend offend, whatever, it's after midnight here, i'm tired and going to bed soon

it's that or fat jokes when you got nothing else..........

Nothing better to do Marion?

No; I'm drivin' this SleazyDream motherfucker nuts and doing a good job of it if I might say so myself.

Generally pointing out spelling errors on GFY" is a mistake if for no other reason that to so many users English is indeed a second language and it is a tough one!

:2 cents:

driving me nuts?

I'm pissing myself laughing at you tonight, you're soo stupid it's funnier than SNL

one can smell your tears as your poorly educated world view slowly collapses.....

it's soo bad you can't even defend yourself and have to resort to spelling and fat comments

I didn't write that you are fat.

Are you fat?

If you are fat, do you have a problem with your condition?

If so, why?

Fat people gotta have love too!

:2 cents:

my apologies. I make mistakes sometimes.

This guy is a tool. He lists no examples for #1, he sounds like a racist in #2, He doesn't realize that health care is free in #3, that we (white people) totally fucked the native indians over in #4, that Canada is mostly pacifists in #5 and would never dream of invading another country, especially for non-existing wmd's. What a fucking idiot.

Marion, I hope to god when I'm an old man like you I have more to do in life than pretend to be someone I'm not on an industry board. How sad and pathetic is your life?

Canadians are just idle nothings. thats the way i see em. they just exist. eat shit and die quietly.

they produce a lot of products and arent anyone to talk shit about, good people for the most part, but I wouldnt wanna live there or be one

the funny and talented ones move to the united states

Yeah, Canadians are political pussies, majorly! You think you guys got it bad, imagine a hole country who doesn't care about getting fucked, that is Canada and no one here can argue successfully against that. My country is a joke and the people are worse, they could care less about the man next to them, and that's one of the few major issues we have, along with the fact most Canadians bend over when asked by our leaders, we have 0 self pride in holding our rights!!


Fell Better.

Well, he's that lame that he pretends to be a woman on GFY, so typo correcting is well within his itchy clit remit, right Marion?

just another loser on a message board like the op. how impressive.

"Idle nothings"...

The most important and prolific inventor the world has ever known came from Canadian ancestry.

Thomas Alva Edison was the last son of Canadian Samuel Edison - (Samuel born in Marshalltown, Nova Scotia). The Edison family came to Canada as United Empire Loyalists after the Americans arrested them for treason and sentenced them to death. In effect, if it weren't for the Edison family finding refuge and re-establishing in Canada...the Americans likely would have killed them - thus ending the lineage that eventually produced the inventor Thomas Edison.

The Edison family only moved (back) to the United States after taking part in the unsuccessful MacKenzie Rebellion in the mid 1800s. And still they faced charges and threats to deport them back to Canada.

Thomas Edison was simply born in America due to political circumstance back in Canada.

Did I merely regurgitate this bit of history from Wikipedia?
No. The Edison family are distant Empire Loyalist ancestors of mine who lived on the north shore of Lake Erie (Vienna, Ontario) back in the day.

"Idle nothings?" Go fuck yourself. Have someone read you a fucking history book sometime.

Oh - and those "idle nothings" built the Avro Arrow, the Canadarm on the space shuttle, invented the telephone, the snowmobile, basketball, IMAX and hockey.

I love Canada

I would also like to add a comment as to why it sucks to be Canadian.
I am Canadian, and I live in Capital City of the country. Nearly impossible to get a job here unless you speak the minority french language. Even jobs like a Garbage Truck guy who throws trash into the back requires being fluent in English and french, reading, writing and speaking.. It's horrible.

That is why I got into the adult biz. I can't find any jobs here because I am automatically shut out due to the fact that I only speak the MAJORITY language.
Luckily, USA is truly a land of freedom and I am able to work for USA over the internet while residing in Canada.

Canada doesn't seem to want me, so I will quite happily contribute to helping the US economy. :)

exactly :thumbsup

Why would a garbage truck operator need to speak or even read french? I can see if you were in Quebec. I'm in Ontario too and the only French I have to deal with is the annoying shit on our food labels.

Punched that up for you a little bit. I think it brings his sad and pathetic-ness into its proper sad and pathetic perspective.

If that's my life when I'm Marion's age, somebody please shoot me. If I haven't already done so myself, that is.

Why do canadians live in the past so much? Their only accomplishments are burning the white house and the avro arrow and they never shut up about it.

I'd love to contribute that site about my country.

good to know you're slamming some of your clients there........

Not entirely true. Not all of us live in the past, some of us are just proud and secure enough in our own Country that we don't feel a need to belittle someone else's beliefs, or disrespect their country, on a message board pissing contest.

I'd bet most American and Canadian citizens alike are hardly properly represented on this board. The few continually vocal people are basically a subset of the "uneducated and/or no-life" cultures which unfortunately can be found on either side of the border.

First off you're full of shit. Second, how sad are you that you can't get a job in a country where the unemployment rate is under 7%. Instead of blaming a country why you can't find work take some responsibility and find a job. I've been steady employed since I was 14 years old here.

Ignorance is bliss, eh?

Its not just Ottawa. The only real jobs available are with various level of government - and you have to be bilingual to qualify for any of them.

Unless you get elected Prime Minister. Then you can learn our second language at your leisure.

Canada is no longer a democracy - but most countries aren't anymore. Its a politically correct bureaucracy. A sad joke of a country.

I agree with our justice system.a human life is worth shit.bring back the death penalty

My country is not even in the list but it sucks badass... :1orglaugh

Canada has two official languages, not one as some seem to want to believe. It's not a second language, it's one of two official languages. As such, you have the right, as a citizen, to request to be served in either official language. THAT is why there is such a requirement.

My wife works for dept of defense. When she decided to apply for a gov't position in such a capacity, she went to night school to re-learn French as she had forgotten most of what she learned in high school. But she took the initiative to actually get qualified versus complaining about it or that it was an unfair requirement.

Canada offers both languages in its public school system, thus it is up to each individual if they actually want to learn it or not. Most, however, blow it off and then complain about the gov't requirements afterwards.

It's a whole lot easier to complain about something than it is to take the initiative to do something about it.

As for the decent jobs being gov't based, I am not sure where you're located, but I've held a couple of VERY lucrative positions that were anything but gov't jobs. And they certainly were not union jobs (I'd never work for a union).

For the record, I cannot speak French either, but understand why there is a requirement for a federal position.

I will agree, however, it's a giant bureaucracy.

(I can't believe I am involved in one these ridiculous drama threads on this rather poor excuse of an adult webmaster business board.... carry on wasting your time ;)

:1orglaugh

What year in history is the correct year to start counting who is an immigrant and who's immigrant culture should be "the country's culture".

I mean, just wondering why newly arrived people need to lose their culture in exchange
for a culture that appears to be from a different hemisphere, such as Europe.

Wow! If Canada sucks, so what is left for Brazil?

THIS IS A FAVELA!

I bet you that one week living here you'll think that Canada is a paradise.

Yeah, sure. Right up until you get an offer for a reality TV show or pro sports.

Then all your anti-union shit will just fall apart like a raggedy bitch on meth as you count your money.

So annoying to here this bullshit from people who will simply sign up as soon as
they get employed. (Like they should)

Every time I showed a union pay check to someone working my same job as non-union,
the only question they had was "how can I join".

You'll do the same.

Pfffff!

Wrong. I have actually quit a job when they voted to go unionized. In my 35 years in the workforce, I have worked for one unionized environment (in the early 80's in Toronto) and would never work for one again. If you want to pay a voluntary tax to someone and limit your earning potential for the comfort of a specific job, that's your choice. I choose to remove limitations on myself and have made a very comfortable living as a result. I despise the fact my wife is forced to be unionized. But that's her choice.

Most of the big unionized auto plants in my area closed up / moved and the only big one left is non-unionized Toyota. They are obviously the only one who could afford to operate in this area because they weren't getting assfucked by the unions.

If you give the unions too much power then they drive everything right into the ground. Hell, they even rape the company on the way out with their insane settlement packages for employees that lose their jobs. Some guys from Ford who were losing their job were going out and buying new vehicles with their settlement money.

Great for the employee for a while, until they lose their job. Then it's back to $13 an hour jobs stacking shelves at the local hardware store for all the poor saps with their grade 12. And those high paying jobs never come back to the area.

i like poo
i miss currently sober too R.I.P

You simplify the world greatly as in thinking it works the same for everybody.

I have worked in a dangerous factory and only unions stop the deaths and loss of
limbs in that shit.

You haven't been there so you don't know. For you it's all about limits on income and
mandatory raises. It's a childish republican spin on what unions are.

You should read the book titled "The Jungle".
It's has lots of facts about the US labor market before unions!

:2 cents:

Short cut to reading the book : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Jungle

Blackmonsters: I am not saying unions do not have their place. I am simply saying that they do not have a place for me. I found unions in general to limit my potential. Thus, I have purposely chosen not to be employed by one since the 80's.

In hindsight, it was the right decision for me, as there's no way I would have been in the position I am today had I opted to just stick with a union job as my career choice (and that's even if they had not already sent the job overseas by the time I retired, leaving me wondering about a pension/retirement plan).
