canada Teaching Anti-Americanism

[Nutz]

If you were talking that way about Native Americans, African Americans, Jews, Muslims, etc., you would be - rightfully and correctly - called a racist bigot.

Canadians are not a race, so I won't call you racist, but you left yourself wide open to be - rightfully and correctly - called a bleeding idiot.

LOL...typical level of canadian debate.

What the fuck would you know about "Canadian debate"? You already have no clue about Canadian culture, Canadian education systems, Canadian mentality or Canadian history. Hell you can't even spell the name of the country.

As noted way back, worst thread train wreck ever. What does it feel like to have everybody from every side of the political spectrum, those normally at extreme odds with each other, in full agreement that the OP is a blithering idiot?

You are full of bitterness and vitriol today. Why are you so emotional_

Evade much?

What am I evading? Should I retaliate with the personal insults and vitriol? How about I find a web page that says that the EU is the US's largest trading partner, but hide that fact by posting a 50 ft long post of nonsense.

Nobody said that there isn't gun violence in Canada but it is much greater in the US. Canadians generally believe that American gun laws are insane. It is a big reason why Canadians don't want to be Americans.

I'm sure Canadians would prefer that America just go away so long as we leave our doctors and hospitals behind for them to use when they get tired of waiting on an endless list.

Although the Canadian health care system is federal, it is administered with varying degrees of efficiency in various provinces. (That's like "states" for the information and geography challenged).

In Manitoba, for instance, the waiting time is about the same for just about everything as in the States.

And speaking of waiting time and the oh so great health system in the States, for starters, ask the 40+ veterans who died waiting in Phoenix, and heaven knows how many more elsewhere.

What's the waiting time for a knee replacement in Manitoba?

It was 4 months for my mother, who lives in BC, but only because she agreed to fly to Calgary to have it done.

Or the 30,000 plus patients who die of preventable infections in private sector American hospitals.

How many die of preventable infections in Canada?

WWII, forced into war as part of the British Empire.

Not true. UK declared war on 9/3. canada approved their declaration of war 9/9 AND THEN took the documents to the King of England to get him to declare war for canada.

All of this should be in your source.

First, let me thank you for being a hater. We've never had a hater before. Since declaring independence in 1867, nobody has ever hated Canada. Well, at least no one who didn't speak French. Usually, we just want people to notice us in any way. But we're usually too polite to say anything. So we're very flattered that we finally have a hater. We rate!

Second, you're argument was that Canada was "forced" into the war by the British Empire. That's silly nonsense, particularly since you resort to a legislative procedural argument. You don't know how the Canadian Parliamentary system works. Any bill passed by the Canadian House of Commons has to be ratified first by the Canadian Senate then signed by head of state, who at the time was the King of England or today, the Lieutenant Governor. But unlike the American system, the lower house - the House of Commons - is the primary legislative body. Once it passes there, the Senate and Head of State effectively rubber stamps approval.

World War II was popular in Canada, at least English Canada. The country didn't need to be forced into it. IIRC the size of Canada's relative contribution to the war was larger than America's.

It is funny how you are trying to tell me I don't know how canada works while you don't even know your own history. You attempted to claim canada declared war on Germany before the UK...which is 100% false and not even close to being true.

BTW...canada did NOT claim independence in 1867...another incredibly wrong statement.

Learn your own history and take stock in what is happening in you own country...only then, will I be able to go away. As it stands now, I have to educate the masses. Thank you for illustrating that point with your false premises and ignorance of history and current events (like the typical canadian).

First off, why does anyone in the United States care what a shithole like Canada teaches? Why are we concerned with anything that goes on in Canada? Or any other nation for that matter?

This story is just more proof that the United States needs to move towards a MORE Isolationist society rather than opening up/remaining open to foreign interactions. The only way an AMERICAN needs to deal with anyone from another country is via the muzzle of a military-issued rifle.

While I agree with your sentiment...it is important because canada is a supposed ally who has lived off the success of the United States of American since its inception. Whether we like it or not, they are part of North America, so we need to keep a close eye on these shifty little bastards. canada is a breeding ground for terrorists and they teach children to hate Americans.
