I do find the traditional American athlete complaining about the Canadian way of life, laughable. I remember when Antonio Davis in the early 2000s complaining about the metric system being taught to his kids in school, along with the weather, or not getting ESPN. New York more or less has the same climate of most of Canada. Go to a poop city like Philly and you'll see what true ghetto is, save for a few blocks in the city core which seem normal. Aside from down south climate and the partying that comes with the sun, I don't see what American's see in their cities. Most of them are trash. I'd take the physical safety of most of Canada vs the mediocre cities every day of the week.
