Canada or the USA - Where to live?
In your opinion, which is better?
Base it on whatever reasoning, just post that reasoning :) |
USA USA USA!
I went to Whistler BC for my honeymoon earlier this year, and the province has a ridiculous alcohol tax. |
We got the bombs.

I'd have to live in Canada to make an opinion. I love Pennsylvania. NY is nice too. I've been to Canada and I thought it was beautiful, but like I said, experience is the only way to make an appropriate answer.

Canada is nice and all, but: (you all know this video was going to make it here eventually)

Never met a Canadian I didn't like, except.....
Why do Canadians have to separate themselves from yankees? Every time I travel, canadians always make a point to state that their Canadian, and certainly NOT American. Its like the pride of the country is based on the fact they are not American. In contrast, all the brits I've known just state that they are the best at everything, and invented it first. They don't really care what nationality you are. |

They don't really care what nationality you are. If it is true or not, not sure. I tell people i'm from Nigeria. Canadians can be pretty laid back and likeable, but not much different than some Americans. There is also a vast amount of douchebaggery in Canada as I am sure there is in the USA. Good news is that I am Canadian and so is K1E1V1E1N so right there the party is started on a good note. :D |
How come you voted that the USA is better then Canada Rick, I mean it is apart from the health care bit, but...
|
I think its good thinking where you come from is the best otherwise your never going to be happy and you will always want to leave.

Because I am self employed at times its a real pain to accomplish anything especially with a non tangible business. My wife is in the US sometimes 1/2 a month and though she does say some areas are complete ---- holes (like here), so does comment on how far cash really goes in the US. My mother was in IOWA for about 6 months working / training and she had nothing but praise for the lifestyle. As for the healthcare I am told insurance can be pricey but you can be taken cared of well in the US. No insurance is retarded expensive. If you are an immigrant who just moved to Canada there is tons of opportunity for you and free ----. :)

u dont wana go down there no one wants to leave canada

I've lived in Chicago my entire life, and love the US. I have friends in Edmonton, and travel there every few months and go biking in Kananaskis Country. Honestly, I'd move in a heartbeat. Alberta's job market seems stronger than my area, especially for technical fields (I'm an engineering major with IT certificates and I can't get a job in either field).

But for myself, im self employed. As a business owner I want what gives me an edge to better what I do.
As a person who was involved in sports young at competitive levels I was always told I had to goto the U.S. for doors to open. As a parent, there is security in the health system here because I am familiar with it. I dont know the US system but I have heard...if you got cash in the US you live, no cash you die. Grass is always greener on the other side. I may not ever have the chance to be in the US but I tell my wife that our next child should be born in the USA so he has dual citizenship. On the flip side someone had mentioned forget the states, goto Sweden or Switz (cant recall because of the paid education). |
In the US..
No cash = live off government. Middle cash = Have to work your ass off for okay living. Upper cash = you win but pay for poor. |
