I'm aware of that, believe it or not. Purely a joke on my end. I legit love canada.
In my limited experience, 1/10 Canadians I've encountered were assholes. That's 9/10 for my fellow Americans. Best ally any country could have, too. Canada is fucking awesome. If I had to move away from home to another country, it would be my pick
Which is kinda silly to say, I guess. But it's true.
I think you might be wearing rose colored glasses when you're thinking about Canada.
As a Canadian I think the ”crackhouse above a meth lab” joke is pretty apt. Canada is just America Light®. These jokes are especially poignant nowadays as our political landscape seems to be obsessed with doing its best American impression.
Of course Canada isn't a horrible place to be but it gets way too much praise from outsiders. We have a lot of problems just like everywhere else and instead of learning from the mistakes of others we seem to be more interested in following them off the same cliff.
Well, I believe you, but I think about it as Canada exporting its best people south :)
