Canada, like America, but without the crap stuff?

[ritch]

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".

average wait time is 10hrs or so here.

[Irongrip400]

It's less crazy because there's less people. Pack a shitload of people together and they act a fool. Canada is like a big country with the feeling of a Midwestern town.

[stavios]

Free healthcare. 50% tax rate.... Free.

Canada... Lolz.

Lmfao

Exactly

[Teutonic Knight]

Canada should take back Vince 

[dr.chimps]

Canada is America's gay brother.

Watch your mouth, convict.

[disco_stu]

makes me laugh when i hear people complain about tax rates.

your taxation is built into your job. if you got less tax, you'd be paid alot less than you do.

if your income was taxed less, then services elsewhere would cost more.

its swings and roundabouts. either way, your government has to make dollars.

[Teutonic Knight]

Watch your mouth, convict.

Vince was Mr.Canada 

[tom joad]

Lmfao

[tom joad]

[local hero]

is it true aboot getting only 2 weeks paid holls a year in Canada?

[titusisback]

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

Oh yeah it's so bad that the life expectancy is 3 years more here in Canada. Wish I could have the U.S. medical system and die 3 years earlier.

[tom joad]

i'm not into pot myself, but the decriminalization of marajuana is on the horizon in Canada and its actual legalization might not be too far in the future.

As with any decent country that isn't Islamic or originally third-world based, we're getting trashed by the liberal-minded fucks who are brainwashed to believe multiculturalism is good and Muslims, as a whole, mean us no harm, in the long run.

Geographically, I love my country, but politically, I am disgusted with it. Wimps and weasels run things and won't do what's best for the long-term health of the nation.   

[Skylge]

Here in Holland Canada is seen as very conservative, boring and back to the 1950's. True in 2015?

Lol I think that is fading, I even convinced my mom to be a little racist.

When you have 40 gang related deaths by somalis in province over a decade even the most naieve of liberals are changing there tone.

In 1945 Canadians stole Her Hitler  Mercedes & is now in Montreal museum

Canada is a lot like Wisconsin.

[Nick Danger]

Canada is a lot like Wisconsin.

No, western Ontario is a lot like Wisconsin...

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

If people can't partake in the economy because they're not integrated or able to be a part of it due to qualifications/languagebarriers/etc/etc than they have no other choice then to turn to the dark economies.

The more important question is why are these people allowed to come in knowing full-well they cannot partake in the economy or society properly, and do not even attempt to be a part of it?

[Lord Chronos]

Shit, I thought that was only in America. With bank holidays 40 plus days off in Spain...no wonder the economy is not so good :-)

ha ha, I know you are Canadian for sure. Every Canadian I meet talks about the problems caused by Somalis. In Europe whereever they congregate they cause shit loads of problems.

Amazing the logic of the liberal elite, lets take the most wild people we can find, from a country in civil war, with no government, no structure or order, not fucking anything and then dump them in the middle of a developed country and expect them to do well. They are a nightmare, but in reality you cant help but expect them to fuck up.

= Liberal Elite

In their stupid egalitarian mindset, they believe everybody is equal and capable of achieving success given the right environment. Ie Usian Bolt could equal Albert Einstein giving the right education, and Albert Einstein could regularly break the 10 second mark had he gone to athletics school, drunk his milk and ate his vitamins.

[Tapeworm]

It's like a Canadian Pride March in here.

[gettingbetter]

I like it here in Canukistan. People are friendly, you don't lock up your doors and if you do winter sports (hockey) the weather ain't so bad.

Our healthcare is not that good and our taxes are pretty hefty but there are more and more private clinics for those who have the funds. I suscribed my family to one of those and we don't have to wait 10+ hours to renew prescriptions.

As for the housing price, it may be true in the western provinces but I bought a brand new pretty decent looking house (2400 square foot) for less than 400k with plenty of land to have my very own hockey rink :-)

Plus, our domestic market for underground labs is pretty good :-)

Camille Leblanc Bazinet sometimes trains at my gym so there's that too:

[El Diablo Blanco]

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?

Um no.  Toronto is known to have the second most black fatalities by a firearm behind LA in north America.  It is very violent.
