Living in either country is more or less the same, except the U.S. isn't trying to copy Canada in everything it does.. OH I WENT THERE  That or trying too hard to not be like America (3 down football)

I find a big part of the problem, in my opinion, is the most vocal people about politics/foreign relations in general always seems to me the most friggen uneducate.
I look at my facebook for example, the people who generally have their Status set about something political (Oil slick in the gulf, oil sands, US, war in Afghanistan, etc.) are 99% of the time the dumbest on my list (I generally delete them after reading their comments.
Most of them have nothing more than high school, and are just spewing whatever Michael Moore movie they watched that day.
My wife's sister for example. A true moron. A secretary who flunked out of the education program, who feel the need to educate myself and anyone around here about politics and foreign policy.
I personally don't talk about politics, because it's just a recipe for disaster. You are invetably going to end up an argument that will never end. The only person who knows my true political views is my wife. No educated person in the business world are going to put their political beliefs completely out in the open. It's career suicide.
