It's like Tripolitania and Tunisia vs Cyrenaica and Egypt
We eat couscous they eat rice

I have to say i found people in canada to be nicer in general. Probably has to do with the low population.

Maybe the US is simply exceptionally exceptional except when it comes to income equality, general level of healthcare, life expectancy, educational level and few other little categories like that.

I drink it daily.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

One thing I see from American films and TV is that you seem to be fed the idea that there is no problem that can't be solved by shooting at it.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

I think Americans (the culture as a whole, not necessarily the individuals here) is much more a product of propaganda than Canadians. There are, for example, no Canadians I know of who will watch Fox news, and find it necessary to believe the bullshit of the day (Obama is the antichrist, burning oil has no impact on the environment, etc.). Americans are much more of the old Roman blues and greens-- once they've identified with a wing, they will fight to the death to support it, even in the face of contradictory evidence or basic common sense.

Yes, there are right-wing and left-wing people in Canada. But they make their choices based on personal inclinations (from age, wealth, etc.), not from the soundbite of the day.
