its been explained our economy is growing better, we have less poverty, less crime (I can prove that to), EVEN less pollution.
Ummm....did you even READ that post? Canada's unemployment rate is HIGHER than the US, that's not good, that's BAD. Means more poverty and poorer economy.
hey stupid, why don't you compare the populations of the USA, and Canada... in the end YOU guys acually have more people who are "unemployed", think about it..
Pop. of usa = about 300 million.
Pop. of can = about 30 million
now take those percents of unemployment into account, and tell me, what country has more people unemployed and basicly living on the streets, 
Have a nice day.
Hey melonhead, we're talking rates, not overall numbers. No [censored], Mr. Holmes, that if you're talking overall numbers, the US has a higher NUMBER. However, CANADA has a higher rate, therefore a POORER economy. I'm sure that even someone with the obvious limited intellect that you possess could eventually figure that out.

Wow this guy is an idiot. Why is it that Canadians think they can actually survive up there without the US? If they stopped trade with us or closed the borders they would be done! They are turning into the French more and more every year and this thread proves it. And we are the number one hated country because everyone hates to see such a prosperous country while they work for half the pay in double the hours. Not to mention their rights are limited. IT'S CALLED JEALOUSY!

yeah, canada rules.  http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/ArticleNews/TPStory/LAC/20051007/SUICIDE07/TPNational/?query=suicideWINNIPEG -- For 11-year-old Kathleen Beardy it was all simply too much. First she watched as her father Kelly was handcuffed and dragged from the family home by two police officers. Then she was forced to endure the seemingly endless taunts of neighbourhood bullies in her tough Winnipeg district. Finally, her delight when she bought a small puppy for $2 turned to dismay as bullies made off with her new pet, telling her they would sell it. Sapped of the will to live, last Saturday evening Kathleen climbed onto a pile of gravel and, looping the puppy's leash around the low-lying bough of an elm tree, hanged herself. At first, when her friends saw her, they thought she was fooling around. "Come down, the joke is over," one of them cried to her. It was only as they came closer they realized what she had done and began to scream in terror. One of the neighbourhood toughs even tried, and failed, to untie her. By the time her mother, Christina Beardy, arrived several minutes later, Kathleen was dead. "The police were there," Ms. Beardy said. "They asked if I was family but I didn't know who they were talking about. When I realized it was Kathleen there I just starting shouting 'Oh please no!' " At the very least the tragedy of Kathleen Beardy is a terrible insight into the brutality of life on the streets of Canada's inner cities. According to local media reports, both her mother and father were remanded by police early last week, leaving Kathleen and four other siblings in the care of her pregnant sister Beverly, 17, for several days. But what has made the case overtly political is that Kathleen's family said the girl had witnessed the allegedly brutal and unwarranted arrest of her father a week before her death, which sowed the seeds of her mental torment. After the injuries, he complains of increasing headaches and pains in his legs. The skin is still missing from his knees and pictures held by his lawyer show abrasions to his upper body. Meanwhile Ms. Beardy has spent the week struggling to arrange Kathleen's funeral. The cost of the service is a little more than $5,500 but she said so far she has only raised about $1,600. "I asked provincial welfare for help but they said they only provide money for food and shelter, not for grieving," she said. On Tuesday, Ms. Beardy took her children to dress Kathleen's body. They tied a sash to her forehead, coloured her lips with gloss and pulled on her favourite dancing dress. The family also made a collage of photographs of Kathleen's short life. One showed her standing next to a frozen Lake Winnipeg smiling. Another showed her at a bible school. While searching for more photographs, Ms. Beardy came across Kathleen's status card. "She was proud to be an Indian and very interested in our traditions," Ms. Beardy said. "She believed in both aboriginal culture and the Bible. "She loved going to church." In keeping with her Christian faith, Kathleen's body was laid out in an open white casket decorated with pink silk at the Aboriginal Funeral Chapel on Wednesday night. Honouring aboriginal tradition, Ms. Beardy carefully cut long, plaited braids from her own head and those of her daughters and laid them in the coffin. At the spot where Kathleen died, a shabby back alley between abandoned houses strewn with old bits of roofing, friends and neighbours set up a small shrine to mark her death. The pile of gravel she used to kill herself was covered with teddy bears -- brown, white and pink -- and handwritten messages from well-wishers and classmates. At the site, Winnipeggers of all ethnicities came to pay their respects. A traditional aboriginal fire was lit under a thin plywood shelter to protect it from the first snowfall of the season. The bullies returned the puppy to the family. Mary Sinclair, Kathleen's grandmother, had flown to Winnipeg from Victoria when she heard the news. She said: "We would never have thought it of Kathleen. She was always so good and so lively and she never seemed to have any problems. Maybe we just didn't know what was going on inside.""

Just when I think I've read the stupidest post ever, you go and post another. You should offer your posting style to hospital operating theatres as a highly-effective alternative to unconsciousness-inducing medications
and as for china, oh yeah.. bush is sweating in his seat wondering what China/North Korea could do to you guys, so before getting all cocky and telling me your number 1... turn around and think about where you live.
USA use to be the most powerful country in the world, thats just not how it is anymore, china alone has more power then all of NORTH AMERICA put together.
and as for telling me the us economy is great? beha! bush has spent so many millions of dollers in his war, that he can't even afford to rebuild/fix cities from natural disasters, let alone people who are affected by it, so he is relying on fund raisors, and whats worse... other countries offered help which he denied? why? because bush doesn't want to look "broke" even tough he basicly is..
oh btw, did you know the USA has the most issues with racism? right but its just so free right? I rather step my foot in europe before I would decide to live in usa, at least I know the cops won't shoot me to death.
LMAO. Take your own advice buddy.
Dude, I already said what is up with Bush and China. He's not sweating anything. Why would he? He's not going to be president for the rest of America's future. You're an idiot.
Nope, USA is still more powerful. China is getting there. USA still runs the show. Until we're working our butts off learning chinese as the chinese are learning english now, then we're still number 1.
Our economy although not perfect is a lot better than 99% of the rest of the world, including Canada's.
Who cares about racism? BTW, yeah in europe cops only shoot people half to death. In america all cops shoot everyone to death. It's in the law books that cops must shoot people TO DEATH. No half to death, 1/4 to death, or 3/4 to death. And they must shoot people. Especially if they're a race. If the person isn't of a race, then not so much. An interesting point, cops are only required to shoot other cops 7/8 to death. We rely on our poor economy thus bad hospitals with inadequate care to kill the cops the remaining 1/8. It's also required that canadians be killed 33/16 to death. That's to make sure the canadians understand they have been shot to death.

Now, why donâ??t you climb onto that Special Needs tricycle of yours with the fourth wheel attached for extra-ensured retard stability and pedal your fat ass down to the sports field and do some â??outdoorsâ? stuff for a change. Hell, if you donâ??t like it, you can always offer to lick-clean the jockstraps.
In closing, why don't you put your glasses on backwards and walk into yourself
As for the comment about canadians that svt4stv made, what the hell? do you even relize HALF the crap Canadians invented, do you research you friggon moron! if it wasn't for us you wouldn't even have HALF the sports you have now.. you would just be stuck with baseball (insert jerk-off symbol here)
25 reasons why canada is better.
1. We're bigger
2. We don't have major racism problems, but are still the most multicultural nation on earth
3. We're known worldwide to be peacekeepers, not warmakers
4. We don't all live squished together in teeny little houses in cities where you can't even see the sky because of all the smog
5. We know some things about the U.S., whereas they know nothing about us (ever seen the show "talking to Americans?")
6. Even our big cities are clean
7. Here you can walk down the street and say hi to perfect strangers without getting arrested and thrown into an asylum
8. We don't expect people to like us or respect us, but they do. The U.S. seems to have gotten that backwards
9. The beaver is a truly proud and noble animal
10. Canadian beer doesn't taste like polluted water
11. Our nuclear power is safer and cheaper than yours
12. We actually have natural resources
13. Trees are something that can be found everywhere, not just in certain protected areas
14. Our accents don't sound vulgar
15. Our system of government doesn't even remotely resemble Naziism
16. Six feet of snow doesn't slow us down any. Two inches of snow and New York is closed for a week.
17. Everyone in Canada has at least some rudimentary knowledge of what a farm is
18. There's been a woman Prime Minister
19. Tim Hortons. No matter where you go in Canada, you can always get good food at the local Tim Horton's. In the U.S. the best you can do is the International House of Pancakes, or McDonalds.
20. Our flag is original. No other country in the world has a leaf on their flag. How many countries do you see with stars and/or stripes on their flags? It's boring and old.
21. There are more hot Canadians per hundred than there are hot Americans per thousand. Every year when American guys come to my town in the summer they comment on the high number of hot girls here. When I went to Florida last March I saw maybe 2 hot guys the whole trip.
22. Wildlife in Canada does not consist solely of the rats that raid the garbage at night
23. We don't have to buy our drinking water from other countries
24. Acceptance. Canada was the first country in the world to allow homosexual couples to marry, the second to give female equality, and the first to have more than one national language
25. I live here
