I'm a born and raised Canadian and it bothers me how much Canadians try establish that Canada is a way better place than the US. Personally, I'd rather live in Canada than the US, but I know there's about 300 million people that disagree with me for a reason. I also know that if I'm going to vacation in a North American city, my list of favorite places to go is dominated by US cities.
I think the arrogance that comes with being the worlds largest economic and military power for so long is what turns off a lot of foreigners on the USA, but really you guys get a pretty bad rap because of the actions of your government and conservative wing nuts that make it on TV.

well were you lay your head is home, I would love to visit Canada but not live there. Hell I grew up in Florida I think Iowa is too cold let alone Canada.
I left germany when I was 4 years old so I dont remember much of it.
United states needs to be made into different countries themself. the south is completly different from the midwest as the north east is from the west coast.
