I don't think Canada is perfect. At all! I would prefer it if our form of
government was more like the Skandinavian countries. Americans, from what I
can hear think that their country is the GREATEST IN THE WORLD! We hear that
constantly coming from down there. I admit, I would totally and without doubt
rather be a Canadian than an American and even more so now than ever before. 
You don't like that? No we aren't 'above' anyone but we are different than
you. And I like it that we are. Is that ok. I talk about Canada here because I
think most Americans know nothing about us and if they think of hear of us at
all, it's usually wrong.
Little bitty group of Americans here but I think a few of you know that Canada
exists now. Just doing my little bit.
