25 Reasons Why Canada is Better Than the U.S.*
Rating: PG-13
Quality: (Quality: Unrated)
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
