I only use wiki sites when the claim I'm making is bland and not really a matter of debate.

For instance I used a wiki article to show that Asians make up the largest minority group in Canada. It's a pretty simple thing, and I couldn't find any census information. Nobody was arguing whether or not this is true. And it was just a small part of the argument so I took the easy rout.

It's not like anything essential to the argument depended upon the wiki article. It's not like I said "Our healthcare is better, here's a wiki article that proves it".

You see, the thing is, I haven't been trying to say who's country is better, only trying to remove the idea that every single Canadian is a "brainwashed, biased idiot". But of course that's so true that I'm obviously a Borg drone.

lol u are douchebag....none of us are brainwashed u just dont want to face the fact that canada is a way better country... PEACE KEEPERS BITCH!!!\

I love this arguing.

But really, what is it going to solve? If cellardoor manages to win with his unrelenting stream of dug up proof and angry U.S.A rants, will Canada, as an entire country, rise up and admit that the U.S. is better? No. Will the Canadian users on here admit that the U.S is better? No.

It's all just ego stroking, really. OHHH, I FOUND MORE PROOF AND I MADE YOU LOOK STUPID! I R SMART PANDA!

Anyways, people who feel like they need to argue for 8 pages about some stupid subject like that should just chill out. First, Dragonsgrief, you will NOT change the way 30,000,000 Canadians act. Even if you make 30,000,000 threads on the BBS. Your thread is just a flame bait, an idiot bait and a big ego bait.

Stupid.

Also you source is incorrect based on the way it does its calculations. 2006 census found 43% of Canadians had college diploma or BA and above (not including university certificate below the BA level including any post-secondary completion outside of trades is 48%).

Source

Unfortunately US statistics lump people who have a college diploma in the same category as those who drop out of college, making it harder to get a comparable reference. In 2003 the population with some post-secondary education is 52%, including college drop-outs (where as the Canadian stats do not include drop outs).

The US and Canada have the exact same rate of people who graduated high school.

Americans suck because it is environmentally unfriendly. The rest of the rich world looks toward the future with the Kyoto treaty and gasoline taxes to become more sustainable. However, President George W. Bush, along with most Americans, refuses to change. Everyone is terrified of having to pay more for energy and gasoline. I could continue, but most people know about this problem, including how it results in America's addiction to foreign oil.

In the United States, sex is unmentionable and any amount of nudity is taboo. There was an outrage, when Janet Jackson showed her breasts at last year's Super Bowl. Their fanatical attitude toward sex and nudity is precisely why she did it. She knew it would get her a lot of publicity.

America is too religious and is controlled by the rabid, Evangelical Christians of the south. Everyone knows this fact from the last election. Europe takes a very different approach on the matter of religion. They don't tolerate the Christian crap the puritans force on American people. The American people are too stupid to realise that their country is ruled by fundamentalist morons.

Dear Canadians.

That's only for 15 year olds.

That same link says:

Upper secondary or higher, 25- 64 year- olds:

Canada: 84.3

United States: 87.9

Tertiary- type A attainment, 25- 64 year- olds

Canada: 22.2

United States: 29.7

That source doesn't claim that.

Actually that's apparently what Canada did.

Just because we have an incompetent president, does not mean that he represents every single one of us. You also fail to take into account when Bush-bashing that the courts and Congress approve what he's doing first.

So stop with your "LOL AMERICUNTS, STOP EATING MCDONALDS RETARDED FASCISTS", because I'm tired of hearing your whiny self superior bullshit.

I myself am not even American by birth. I've spent the majority of my life in other countries and while they hate America just the same, they don't go as far as to be annoying like you.

I know there's a few of you out there like Jade who this doesn't apply to, but some of you out there know I'm talking to you.

Good day.

I find it ironic.
You hate americans being decriminated against by us canadians who apparently call your whole population fascist idiots, so you turn around and descriminate against Canadians saying that we all are annoying.
Interesting...

P.S. your government is filled with idiots but so is ours.

yeaa, but in the early days you Americans tried to invade Canada, they have a population of 5 million while we had 50 thousand, and you army was 4 time larger then ours. End result, we pushed you back burned the white house and gave back the land we took because of pity. Oh and you American get your uranium from Canada because yours is so damn un pure if you tried to use it would blow.

And if you tried to invade us, every country world help us because we are the best country I the world! Living standards, resources, climate, and wild life, and were home to more then 5% of the world's fresh water because of all of out ponds, lakes, snowcaps, glaciers, and rivers. So when we say were superior we mean all these things and then some! Our population is growing while every where else it's falling, can you guess why? Were home to some of the best scientists in the world, We may not have nukes, but that's only because were peaceful unlike you bruits down south, oh yea our country is bigger and richer too :P

I am a fellow Canadian and even i say you need to be further edjucated, this is clearly just things you have heard from friends and you have no means to back theses up, exept perhaps the part about freshwater and higher living standards, you forget that the united states has about 60% of the worlds military and we supply them with about 25% of that from our factories, we would NOT be going to war any time in the next century.
