Canadian Federal Election

Since I don't think anyone remember the original point of this topic, I'll just say that Canada is a weird country that surely as a problem with its neighbour (namely, the US).

Any different than how French and Germans go at these days? My brother has been to both countries and has seen it first hand.

Canadian people spend their time bashing the US, bragging about how their healthcare system is great, how they're different (better) from the average american. Yet, to any sane european, the canadian healthcare system is a joke, and Joe the canadian is just copy/pasted from Ben the american.

Canada is about 30-50 times larger by sqaure km than any european nation. And 32 million people stonrg. No way our health care system could deliver like France or Germany, or Sweden. No way, not ever. We are about on par with Britain.

And they're a bunch of freaking nationalists, it's almost scary. What the hell with all these canadian flags everywhere ?

That's light nationalism really. My parents house has a flag pole in the front yard.

Oh, and the anti-french racism is kind of boring; wether it is aimed at quebecers or at franco-ontarians people (here I was thinking I would get laid all the time just by saying "Hey babe, I'm french". Next time I'll go to the US ;-( )

People in Ontario think they are better than everyone. Don't take it personally, they are decendants of New Englanders who didn't want to be americans. But on another note I've even met a French-Canadian who bitches about certain franquophone cultural idioms
