Canada, like America, but without the crap stuff?
« on: January 02, 2015, 02:43:08 AM »
Having traveled around both countries it seems like Canada has less psycho's than the US. I like Canada as it doesn't have the gun culture of the US, but the weather is a bit shit.

No guns +1
Free healthcare +1
Bad weather -1

Other than the points above, what other benefits does Canada have over America, or vice versa?

It reminded me a lot of Nothern Europe, same kind of people and weather.
Everyone is very polite and finishes sentences with 'Eh'.

No guns, lol. Head to the western provinces. The compliance on the gun ban is about 3%.

Right now, Canada is more conservative and free market that the US. Let that sink in for a moment.

No it's not. Maybe in Alberta, but everywhere else its more liberal.  Canada's right wing compares to the US middle.

You are right about lots of guns...in Alberta and Saskatchewan. Mostly for hunting.

Nothing in life is free.  Our healthcare is paid for via taxation and though it may have some benefits, it's a system that's lacking in many ways.  Long wait times and subpar treatment are very common.

I think canada and Sweden are pretty much the same. Like Australia and New Zeeland! Same people! Same mind, same thought, simular architecture, simular system.

It is funny when people call it free. Its far from free. The amount of taxes they pay when you include everything is incredibly high and personally, I don't think the overall public services are hardly worth the money.


The wait for an MRI scan is typically 3-4 months. Getting more and more difficult to find a family doctor. Walk in clinic visits last about three minutes, hardly thorough..

Cost of housing is insane. Auto insurance prices are insane. Gun crime is rising in the larger cities, particularly in Toronto, by guess who?  Huge influx of third world and never will speak English individuals pouring in.

Buy they do have nude beaches, ie. Wreck beach.

In my travels I found the west very liberal, Ontario not even close.

Isn't it funny no matter where the place is when 3rd world people(the ones that don't give a shit in assimilating) tend to move in, it's almost always fucked up, poverty, crime rate goes up. Hmmm

You can go topless in Canada on any beach, and even on the streets if you are brave enough.  When the law was struck down I saw quite a few women going topless but I guess the novelty wore off and not so much now.  I guess they didn't want a bunch of old pervs staring at them.  Toronto does have a nude beach on the island but its all homos.

It's very common for Canadians to come to the US medical treatment. That screams something about their crap system.

Tired of people saying the government should provide. Liberals don't realize the government has no money. Only the money they take from people who work. Think about that next time you get that government check or government direct deposit into your account  you think you deserve.

Total bs.  Only the rich do that, because they can afford to.  The rich don't wait in line for anything.

There are more and more private clinics opening in the larger Canadian cities.

The system isn't crap, it's unbiased. Rich and poor will get the same service. Should a child be penalized because his/her parents aren't wealthy?

x2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've said this before when it relates to people moving into neighborhoods.
1. Everyone wants to live in a "nice neighborhood"
2. If some folks move in with dysfunctional behaviors , the place quickly goes to shit.

Conclusion - The reason the place is nice is due to decent people living there. Any place can be a nice place to live IF decent people live there.

I'd bet good money you'd find more american's going overseas for affordable healthcare, than canadians trying to cut in line.

Cost of housing is insane.

This is the part that actually counts.

Canada's real estate bubble didn't crash in 2008 it grew as canada became a safe haven for chink money.

Housing here is absurdly expensive and we can thank our conservative government for that one.

People are even admitting it's 30 percent over priced across the board, even as our Money drops in value.

Some homes are gonna selling for half of what they are worth in a few near years.

You should try coming to the UK. The sacred lamb that is the NHS is a total nightmare. Wait hours for shit treatment.
It ought to be scrapped but it's so precious to the left that they'll keep it afloat even if it means constantly raising taxes. But we keeping getting told it's great because it's "free". ::)
