Well, being American and wanting to leave this country I do believe we are:

Obese (yes the entire nation, myself included, I'm trying...)
Ignorant
Christian
Stupid (I use this term kindly)
materialistic
wasteful
hold strong opinions on things that don't have them involved
racist
and just plain rude!

You Canadians/ Australians, I envy you!

IT'S A COMMUNIST GET HIM!!!!!! lol just kidding

and the entire nation is not Obese (I admit I am Obese) but saying you want to leave the country that fought so hard to get this far, men that sacraficed their lives so THAT you have one, thats low.

Stupid:yeah real mature, hmmm (Havard, Yale, and countless other collages and Universities.)

Christian how is that and Insult (you mean hipocrits) Yes we are Materialistic, and so is the most of civilized society.

Wasteful, what do we do different than any other country?

Racist: that was 30 years ago, there is very little racism anymore outside the Ku Klux Klan.

Yeah Canada is fine, if you like freezing your ass off.
and Australia is fine too, if you can handle know that there are tons of poisones Spiders and Snakes living around you.

Yeah I admit that's is cold in Canada... But hey; WE HAVE SNOWMAN! SNOWMAN!!!, isn't f**king nice?! (just kidding). I want to go in Australia... puting my arms like a kangoroo and jumping everywere while making that noise: Boing Boing Boing Splat (Stomp a spider) Boing Boing Boing... Oh and Jongamer, are you a patriot or something?

See thats a stereotype of Canada. It is NOT cold all the time here in Canada. Sure, it gets colder in the northern parts of the country, and in the winter, but what do you expect? It's called winter for a reason. I myself live in British Columbia in Kamloops and in the summer it can get upwards of 35 degrees celsius. IMO, I think that Canada is the more favourable country to live in when comparing it to the US. Of course, I've never lived in the US, but I have relatives there. More advantages to Canada? 3 words: Health Care System. Oh and did I mention we are far superior in the game of hockey?

Oh yeah: THE HOSPITAL HERE IS FREE (In Quebec at least, but im pretty sure in the rest of the Canada too) And you're right about the cold: In the winter it can go like -30Â°C (don't know how much in Farenheit, but it's really cold) and go up to 40Â°C (Im not kidding, in Montreal we had this like 2 week in a row for 3 years now, it's really hot).

But I love the USA since i've played GTA (not kidding): Just walk in the road and see a black guy killing everyone, it's seem nice...)

its cool to like america and all but unfortunatly all you said is basically wrong lol

fat:its a proven fact that per capita america is the FATTEST country in the world, somehting like 60-70% are considered obese mebe 20% are normal and the rest are skinny (think hollywood/models lol)

stupid: in a ranking of all first world countries (i think like 50) america ranked ninth from the bottom as far as average intelligence goes, there are far more highschool dropouts than harvard grads lol

cristian:not in itsself bad but people who are highly religious tend to belive in things like cteationism, that white people are superior everyone, think they are right no matter what and use god as an excuse to do horrible things, keep in mind Jack Thomson is highly religious right winger or whatever

wasteful: what we do more than other countries? eat fastfood, recycle less, drive huge ass cars MUCH more, etc

racist: to say that there is almost no racisim outside the KKK is WRONG, no offence but there are so many bigoted racist peices of crap in this country you wouldnt belive, racist agains middle-eastern people, against hispanics, against blacks and asians and not supprising a lot of black people are really racist agains whites and get away with it as equal rights

dont get me wrong, i love the ideals and ideas of america (peace freedom etc) but in practice it pretty much sucks, i love where i live and the people im around but canada is lookin pretty good here in a few years

Why not rename the topic: USA vs. Canada: Who will win?

Jongamer: Don't get me wrong, I love our soldiers. They fight for my, your, everyone's freedom.

But to think that we need to fight a war against people who have OIL is not my idea of a good plan.

That enough polotics sky?

Es dreht sich nicht politisch, ehrt das fÃ¼rher oder erhÃ¤lt SchuÃŸ im Call of Duty 3!

(It will not turn political, honor the fÃ¼rher or get shot in Call Of Duty 3!)

EDIT: Ok im bored lol...

Too much, even. I'll have to go through weeding the political discussion if it gets worse. Please stop you guys! We all have different opinions, but this isn't the place to talk about it! >_<

Actually, most Americans ARE stupid. My ENTIRE science class insisted that there were 52 states! They even went to the point to prove me wrong, and counted them. at first, they counted 52 in the continental united states alone!
