That's quite a typical comment from an American. I often hear an excuse from one on why Canada is doing better than them at that and there.

The fact is, we just know how to manage our money. Just look at how we take care of our banks here. We didn't have to bail out a single bank while the USA had to bail out a whole bunch of them.

It's not our problem.

Ever seen Sliders? :lol:
 
I've met a lot of Canadians...and find them very nice!....I'm not bashing Canada...matter of fact, if I could relocate there, most certainly I would....

Exactly...the problem with america is that you (the states) think ALOT is better...well you have too many banks giving out credit and mortgages to ppl who can't afford it and your foreclosure rate is ridiculous meaning your economoy sucks because you have soooo much national debt and bailouts

That's okay, we have deaf plan for wireless carrier and videophone. Canada don't. That's why they're very cheapskate like Jew.
 
Our population is one of the reasons why are country isn't inundated with so much debt and why we have enough jobs for people. The USA has a HUGE population and how many of those are homeless and jobless .. It's funny how you bash canada but in the end it's us who is getting it right and you guys who are suffering
 
Rockin', that was a nice original post you produced here; why some people have to act/say the things they do re: our neighbors to the Great White North baffles me.

Cheap like jews huh...so now you are bashing jews...if people didn't spend so much and use so much money on UNnecessary things than ppl would have EXTRA to spend. Ya Canada doesn't have a deaf plan because we don't have a deaf community like you all do to warrant such a plan...maybe in the future we will and more ppl will ask for it. Most deaf ppl have blackberry and just have data plan.. I like how you are plucking at things to compare to...You guys ALSO have more cell phone companies than we do meaning your rates are cheaper...we ony have 4 major cell phone companies.. and btw i'm legally jewish so you can take that comment and shove it ...get over yourself
 
ALSO I'm pretty EFFING sure if ppl were coming on here and bashing Koreans or DEAF people you would have a thing or two to say about it! AND there are ALOT of things I could say on STUPIDITY that Koreans do but I will refrain because I have more respect and common sense than you do
 
We manage our money up here differently end of story. Just on a consumer level, we don't use/rely on credit nearly as much as americans do. It's not a knock on Americans or anything. Credit based living has become kind of a lifestyle/culture. Having more than 3 credit cards up here is kind of considered a lot.

Poweron, how does not having certain types of plans for wireless communication carriers have anything to do with the topic? I had no idea that the banking system was incharge of that...

Jews being cheap, oh whoopie. Like that's a bad thing? There's a reason that Jews are a very powerful entity in the US and also not usually very poor. If you are cheap and you save your money, the chances of you being poor is lessened. So Canadian's being "cheapskates" isn't a bad thing. Not spending beyond your means is always a good thing.

Plus you're asian, how would you feel if someone made a statement and said you were a cheapskate? Asians are "cheapskates" too. For the record, I'm asian too and I don't let my money burn through my pocket :p

I do love Canada, of course and I'm not interest to look at vs. thread on between USA and Canada.

Canada has better fiscal responsibility and less population, that's good thing.

Kudos to Canada!

It is the truth.. America is drowning in debt, can not deny that.
 
Canada is a great country. Who could fail to love the place where Mrs. Bucket lives?

Carry on now...
