what was the original post about?

Fuck ya Canucks!!!

Health care is good, and Tim Horton's is like Crack to Canadians.

I grew up in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and currently live in Northern Alberta where it can get to -50c at times.. and I can honestly say, the wintertime on the east coast feels a lot colder than our coldest days here, solely because of the coast imo. I have friends in New York and although I never visited myself in the winter, I assume it can get pretty damn cold.

As for "Canadian Bacon"... I actually never heard a Canadian call it that. It's ham. I've only ever heard Americans call it that, and I dont exactly know why.

Our beer is damn good, but not all of it. Alexander Keith's is the best beer in the country imo. Just like anywhere else, the big brands like Molson Canadian, Labbat Blue, Kokanee and all that shite, just suck. I agree with the guy above, the microbreweries are where it's at.

Healthcare is a touchy subject for a lot of people. Healthcare in Canada also greatly varies depending on what province/city you are in.. this is something I realized after moving around the country a lot. Alberta imo is in shambles. Mostly just because of doctor availability, and quality care. It has been pretty poor from my experiences, although nothing like the stories I hear from my US friends. In Edmonton it's just more of a challenge to find a smart competant, compassionate Family Doctor, or any Family Doctor taking new patients for that matter. Sure specialists are everywhere, but try finding a good GP.

I've never really experienced much anamosity towards Americans here, other than whenever Bush comes to gives speeches *cough*cashgrabs*cough. Canadians generally know more about American politics than our own politics... mostly because our leaders are douchebag idiots.

Tim Horton's is garbage. Tim Hortons in our major cities are like crashing pads for homeless people. Good luck finding someone at Timmies that speaks english too... if you speak Tagalog you might get coffee that does'nt taste like it's been mixed with tea.
