You know stereotyping is wrong! I don't know where you get this thought that we suck a math, but that is a pretty damn ignorant thing to say. And its not our fault that the best pot is grown in BC, its hard for my fellow BCers to resist the BC bud.

I fucking love Canada, BC is beautiful, the weather is ok, I love curling, to me there is nothing to not like about Canada!
actually i get it from the fact that people in BC always complain "ontario gets more than we do" and "ontario always gets everything"

the population of BC can fit inside the GTA with some room to spare, the population of BC is 3 million, the population of Ontario is 12 million. so reason would follow that the bigger the population the more stuff it would get in a democracy, since the majourity rules
Oh... well thats really dumb.
Actually I'd like to make a note here, it's not Ontario that gets everything it's Toronto and Montreal. With good reason of course, but I ive in Ottawa(the freaking capital of the country) and nothing interesting ever happens here.

Ok I would like to make a note myself, what the fuck are you guys talkign about!? I did not argue that we complain, but there is no logic to the previous posters(not you) statement. And why are you quoting me in saying what you said, my post has no relevance to yours.

I know that the Canadian government has some pretty terrible views on freedom of speech. http://www.youtube.com/user/EzraILevant

I also know that their health care system isn't all it's cracked up to be. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2jijuj1ysw&feature=channel_page

Other than that, seems like a pretty nice place.

if you come to canada stay away from the government here. The Prime Misleader Harpo decided to close the governments doors when the other party's tried to boot him out. we have trees and rocks, rocks and trees, trees and rocks.....it goes on. Enjoy the scenery and people. enjoy everything we have but try not to screw it up for the rest of us.

Canada gave the world Pamela Anderson, Jim Carrey, Avril Lavigne and I'm pretty sure Madonna, so on behalf of all my fellow Canadians, I sincerely apologise to the world.

I feel compelled to say "Canada eh?"

It's a nice place, more or less a slightly more liberal US with a French-speaking area techno-culturally.

I agree with MOST of the stuff you said, the one thing I'd like to add is that there is one other city in Ontario that isn't mind-numbingly boring: Windsor, we are close enough to Detroit so you can just hop on over to the states if you get to bored here. We have a pretty good music scene, (lots of local bands, this one is my favourite: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=imfjUrbsy-w) and we have the Windsor Spitfires reigning Memorial Cup champions. GO SPITS!
Really? Most people I talk to hate Windsor and want to get out as soon as possible. Can't really blame them, with all the drama in the past few months. Also, I thought we had the highest unemployment rate in the country, right?
I'm getting out of here in a week or two anyways. Gonna be up in London for school.
yes we do have the highest unemployment rate (only because we rely heavily on the auto industry) And then the City workers strike left the place looking like a wheat field in the prairies. However now our grass is cut and or garbage is being picked up, and it is getting back to what is was before the recession.

P.S. What school in London are you going to? If i had to guess I'd say Western.

Yeah I guess, it's just that until a week ago I was still seeing areas that had chest-high grass and I was getting a bit impatient.
And yeah, I am going to Western! From what I've seen it's really something nice, plus I have two cousins there who I don't see enough.

For fans of Cyberpunk, they can thank Canadian author William Gibson for kicking off the genre's conception with his 1983 novel Neuromancer.
actually he, much like Cheech, came to Canada to avoid the draft, he was born in the states.

tho we do have Spider Robinson and Ed Greenwood, who is best described as looking like a real life version of Elminster

I think you should be happy the whole world doesn't hate you. On that note on behalf of all Americans everywhere for everything we have ever done and will do and I do sincerely mean this, I apologize we are a bunch of hot headed morons with more power then we can handle. I'm not proud of what we have done and for that I truly am sorry.

Hmm... ? Umm.. Canadians eat a lot of donuts, have milk in plastic bags, have ketchup flavored potato chips, are very polite, are bad tippers, really like hockey, say things like "and Bob's your uncle", and might speak French.

Oh and have square flappy heads, buddy. :)
What? Who doesn't have ketchup flavoured crisps?

O____O There's a place WITHOUT ketchup flavoured crisps? Poor folks!
