Honestly speaking not too much difference, people are generally the same, (accept where I lived in the states there were more cacaision about 95% where i lived in the states there were cacauisions, here is all mixed). Next, heath care is free, I also dont know why people here bash the health care, when you need it, its always there and reliable. Only thing is it may be hard finding a doctor accepting new patients at first. Umm, what else.... hmm, ya about that job paying thing, yes i agree there are more job opurtunities in the states, but you can get really decent jobs here of 100K per year or more you just gotta look at the right places 😀
Structure Problems:
"not too much difference" == "people are generally the same", no need to say both
"accept
where I lived in the states there were more cacaision about 95%
where i lived in the states there were cacauisions", I don't really see the need to say everything twice
Grammar Problems:
"its always there", unless the health care system owns the word always, it should be "it's"
Spelling Problems:
"accept" should be "except" in that context
"cacaision" and "cacauisions" should be "caucasian"
"opurtunities" should be "opportunities"
Open Debate With What You Said:
"health care is free", no it's not. It's paid for by the tax dollars that come out of your pocket and the pockets of everyone else. It's hardly free. You're just so used to a Liberal government, you think it's free because they've taxed you blind.
"but you can get really decent jobs here of 100K per year or more", maybe, but I know that you aren't earning a six figure salary because your writing is horrible. Did you ever consider thinking before you write? Did you ever consider that writing is different from conversation? When you write, you can go back and correct any errors and remove "umms". Most people don't actually WANT to say "umm", they do it to fill blank air time between thoughts. The fact that you've actually written in "umms" bothers me on so many levels.
Also people seem to like canadian chocolates better, they taste different compared to american. Next not a lot of toll highways, and most of the action here is in the cities, (action = jobs, entertainment, etc...). Sometimes the winter lasts up to April. Canadians generally like Americans, you should have no problems in that, we welcome americans here. Generally people are kind and good, of course with the exception of the ocasional crazy guy or gal. BTW over here the major political debats are mostly tax, schooling, and health care.
Anything else? also a question, what did bad things did you hear about our postal service? I have had no problems sending things within the country, only problem I have ever heard of was COD problems, (money talking long time to arrive to seller) and cross board delays.
Ok one thing, i will admit, the thing that Canadians al most everywhere say is that America uses its military too much, thats the only critism i really hear over here. Nothing else we dont hate americans we like them.
Great place to live, and if you watched Bowling for Columbine and are wondering if everyones door is really unlocked, its true, in the city, in a lot of places. A great portion of the public does not lock its doors. But most people still do.
I could go on forever, but this one really bothered me:
"A great portion of the public does not lock its doors. But most people still do.", Do I really need to spell out the problem with this logic?
