Why is Canada better than USA?

Well, This could be a very hot topic. I am Canadian. Never in a million years would I want to be American, especially now. I find that most Americans are loud, opinionated, and think they are God's gift to the world. This is only my opinion, but as a whole, where do the American's get off thinking that anything they want they can have. Like someone else's country. I cannot and should not group all American together, but as a group, I think they are too much. There is a Canadian t.v. show called 'The Rick Mercer Show'. He used to go to the States and ask people in government rediculous questions about Canada. It was hilarious. You'd think that they would know more about Canada, considering they are supposed to be educated people, and given we live so close. How can you be an ally if you know nothing about the country. I hope I haven't offended anyone. Everyone is an individual. I am talking generally. I also have relatives who are American and they too are very opinionated and pushy. And, yes, we do have people in Canada like that.

i dont think theres anytying wrong with weed. just dont drive high! it should be legal in the united states. i want to move to canada!

Our medical system used to be fantastic. We're going through a crisis because of the babyboom; we have way more older people than young people, therefore we are starting to see an increase in the number of people needing healthcare. We're looking at ways to merge private and public together, but most Canadians are hoping to keep healthcare free for everyone. I'm happy to pay higher taxes in exchange for such a system. We had a more liberal Prime Minsiter until the most recent election, however the new one, Stephen Harper is more right-wing. I'm hopeful that there won't be too many changes to the secular environment up here, but he certainly has a lot of conservative Christian groups in his party rallying for change.

is it ? im frm india. i thought US is better .

Canada is free from terrorism.America is always in fear of getting attacked too.To worse d things the Mr Bush is ruling himself not his country america.

In addition to what you just said, I have to add that Canada is safer than the US. I was watching a documentry about it.. people in Canada don't even lock their doors. And they RARELY have murders. They were showing a news brodcast for Canada and it was about new speed bumps in a street. Can you believe that! Here, in the US you'd never hear that.. all you hear about is people dying and such. Heck, I'm moving to Canada hah.

I dont know much about canada been to toronto and niagara falls for vacation it seemed cool but was too short to tell but i had a good time

I lived in Canada for eight years with my Canadian husband. I wish I could have those years back. The taxes are high, the standard of living is lower, and the winters are COLD.

do you live close to the border? i do and i know alot of ppl go there to get surgerys done and they dont have to wait

I have never been to Canada. But I know people who live there. I hear wonderful things about it. And when was the last time this peaceful country hasn interfered in war? Grrr... I hate my country.. America. I am actually thinking real hard about moving to Canada.

Canada has bigger tax in my own opinion

Homosexuals can adopt and become clergy in the USA. It is a matter of the adoption agencies policy or the particular religious branches policy, not law.
