American-Canadian rivalry cracks me up. It's just so freaking useless. Come on, we're practically the same country! That's gonna piss some people off, I can tell...but really: same language, same accent (pretty much), same culture, same socioeconomic levels, same political system, close proximity in terms of distance, etc. etc. Why can't we just all get along??? This blame game stuff is silly. Americans have made some stupid mistakes, but neither are Canadians faultless. As is true with any nation. Not that I'm saying the countries should unite as one, but I mean...I'd be hard-pressed to call Canadians "foreigners" and my two Canadian friends (one a TX transplant now) feel likewise as far as the U.S. is concerned.
OH YEAH, and if Americans are so odious and useless, then why was EIGHTY-TWO PERCENT of Canada's exports to the U.S. last year, and why is it that eighty-FIVE percent of Canada's population lives along the U.S. border? so HAH.
well I mean I can't really blame you guys for the last one, I wouldn't want to live way up in the Yukon, but still...you gotta admit, it's a funny statistic.
