Before jumping the gun and saying all these bad things that America has done or gotten itself into and talking about how Canada is defiantly the better country stop and think for a second.

America does much more to help out other countries, and give much more aid than Canada could ever dream of.

Also America the most opportunity you could find in a country job/carrear wise.

We have the best entertainment...most media and sports teams coming from here.

Now i am not bashing Canada, or saying we are some great country standing for everything good and right. I am just saying take a second before saying how much you think they are better off than we are. You are incredibly fortunate to be living in a country such as this where you can do whatever you want whenever you want. And also i am not saying Canada does not produce entertainment, give aid, and all those are great things, because that would be inccorect they do. But not nearly at the scale America has/does.

Its called a larger scale is all. We are a bigger country. And that is nothing you can prove4 considering its all point of view and opinion.

And what do you mean its not true...name somewhere with more opportunity than America. Also give me some facts or numbers than just saying not true...

[sleepy jack]

Lets seriously compare the world's power house to another nation just because the nation happens to be above it!!! Seriously though if you get into things like military and world politics America is going to come out on top, it's ridiculous to compare them on that level.

I'm a little curious as to how many of these American's saying Canada and the UK are better have actually been to these places.

It does seem to be a trendy thing to say. I'm not saying America's the best place to live (because I've never been anywhere else) but we definitely have our fine points.

Well I'm not even American I was born and raised in Canada and only moved over here when I was 10 because of my parent so I think I have the right to voice my preference.

That you do. Me thinks that doesn't apply to everyone making the argument though...
