MP,Get real! You wouldn’t even have a 'country if we weren’t protecting your delusions. The PRC would have invaded you with an army of 10 million or more.

“Canada is the country with the largest land mass in the whole world.”- A quote from the most normal Canadian I’ve ever met(can’t you take a joke MP?)
Don’t take this the wrong way, but Canada is quite weak. I am a former Canadian and since I moved to the U.S, it is appearent. But in my mind, I’d live in Canada sooner than I would live in the U.S. I hope I am not offending anyone, but I feel the need to speak my views.
I hope by weak you mean militarily and population-wise. As I’ve stated before, Canada’s a peacful nation and has no need for a large standing army. I’m also thankful for the low population, I wouldn’t want to deal with that many people.

That is indeed what I meant. I love Canada.
Beautiful country, Canada.
I hear and read that the Medical system ain’t great. Got a waiting list for lotsa surgery, so if you/they can afford it you/they come down here and pay to get it now(meaning sooner than you/they might get it up yonder. And yet, the whiney butts here in da USA (USA! USA! USA! USA! USA! usa……)
Sorry about that! Just went Olympic with a touch of 9/11/2001.
I hear/read that the Rx drugs (Oh, like, far out, man!) are cheaper (due to gov’t footin’ part of da bill er sumpin’ like dat.
And then, NO RIGHT TO BEAR ARMS? Did I hear that correctly? I guess you/they don’t have enough people up there…criminals cannot find any one to rob/kill etc. … don’t hear much about dat. However, in UK and Australia the crime rates have soared since the right to private gun ownership was taken away. And in the USA (I saw it comin’ so I was able to steel myself for the rush of patriotism) the crime rates have dropped in every state that concealed carry has been passed(at least where the statistics are out). But, Ohio’s Gov. Robert(Bob) taft is a chicken sh*t! He said he’d pass a concealed carry law if elected, won, and then said he’d listen to the FOP(HE AIN’T GONNA GET THE NRA VOTE NEXT TIME, but he’ll probably win since he’s got 10x the $ to spend_).
I guess I might move this line of thought(CONCEALED CARRY) to a new forum.

True, I once had to do a report on concealed weapons.
I hear and read that the Medical system ain’t great.
I dont know a lot about Canada but i can hardly image a system worse than yours.
The problem with our Medicare system is that it has gotten too political. It’s a “third rail” like Social Security, which is why we hardly see any much needed reform. Politics – blah.

Why dont you register, tough guy.
The problem with your medical system is theres no insurance for everyone, at least not an insurance that cover 100% of the medical cost. I dont think it is something normal for a country to make peaple pay so much for a diseases which they caught by accident, i mean peaple are not running after problems, and when they caugth a diseases; now two problem, 1; the disease itself, 2; $$$.
I cannot imagine it is not even a big debate on you country (Clinton was thinking about it i think but it was not really consistant)
Most Western European Countries have a State Health Care system. They all work well.
The problem is that Americans are not willing to raise taxes high enough to support 100% of the medical cost. Nor have Americans built of the mentality of only going to the hospital when they really need too, not as some unlimited resource. Also there is an unwillingness to reform the Healthcare system or completely redo it, thanks to all the lobbyist and amendments. That’s really why it’s called the Third Rail.
Remember, Hilary Clinton tried to “fix” the healthcare system and she failed miserably.
Exactly
“DAMN RIGHT America sucks !!”
I can only wonder why you said such a thing. America may have its share of criticisms (some more than others), but what country doesn’t? In that sense, every country “sucks.”
Americans do not realise that, in the modern World, a country either needs High Taxes, or very low Taxes. A Mid Tax range isn’t the way to go.
