Every Friday in winter is black friday in Canada. It gets dark at like 3pm here in NY, I can only imagine how early it gets dark up there.

Seriously though, Canada doesn't seem so bad. I'm sure it's very beautiful up there, and your football has a 55 yard line.

Cuz you didn't come across the big lake in the Ark eleventy-beelion years ago and almost starve to death only to be helped by those gullible indigenous savages that became extinct a few years ago.

Well, 3 was a bit of an exaggeration. Our official sunset today is 4:27pm.

They get free medical care in much the same way that we get free education and free military protection.

It's not really free, you pay for it with your taxes. Each country just has to decide how much balance they want between services and keeping their pay.

People who say they get free medical care are stupid as hell, because its not free, thats where that hugeass income tax and tax in general comes from, as well. And you're basically paying for your own, and all the bums who don't have jobs, and for the old people who didn't save money, and all the bureaucrats who get the profits.
Great system! :D

Right, as opposed to here where we pay for our own and then pay more in taxes for all the people who go to the ER because they can't afford health insurance, and for the old people who didn't save money, and all the lawyers and claims people that try to make sure the insurance companies pay out as little as possible, AND all the CEOs who get rich off our backs. Great system! :D

Heh... Fortunately for most Canadians it's a short drive to America where they can actually see a Dr. before their tumor grows to the size of a watermelon. :p
