Why i love canada:

-i was born here
-its peaceful and people here arent just about money
-seasons, i love spring, summer, fall, winter, and its nice to have variety from -30 degrees to +30 degrees
-rocky mountains, banff, kananaskis country
-all the cities
-multiculturalism, very strong in T.O, where you can be chinese, indian, american, french or anything else. you can keep your own identity
-the country is peacefull and stays out of conflicts

diversity not assimilation , i love canada

Hey, maybe they did target you because you were American. I'm sure it happens all over the world, like ABT said, sometimes its better to be "Canadian" than "American" when travelling abroad...

Its very unfortunate to be stereotyped and targetted because of your nationality, and it shouldn't happen. You guys just got alot of enemies, political backlash.

Hehe look there are assholes in any country regardless of where you live. I can assure you that there have been just as many asshole experiences all throughout Canada as there have been in the US ... hehe. That factor remains constant regardless of where you go.

One example of me not being biased is that I was in NY this past weeknd and some fuck was being a complete dick about giving my money back. We were looking to park to see tiesto and some guy was being shady as fuck when we were looking for parking. Anyway long story short he refused to give us a legitimate parking spot and denied knowledge of us paying him $25. I know it's not true but it makes me think that all new yorkers are money grubbing bastards without a concern for decency. Anyway I have one word to say about Canada ... Peel pub, Toronto. You cannot compete.

WHY I LOVE CANADA: (a real one this time!!!)

because if i go through the vancouver IACE branch i can get a round trip ticket to tokyo during the most peak of peak seasons (a few days before new years) for only 620 fuckin bucks american (thats after tax and everything)... i think its probably mostly because of how good the conversion rate is for down here for right now.. but damn!!!! thats cheap even for NON peak season!!!! so i have my tix reserved to go somewhere that ive wanted to go to for so long, i just have to see how long i can stay at my friend toshis house

(oh, the same ticket down in seattle was around 780... still cheap, but yea) YAY FOR CANADA
