Oh my gosh no, Im sooo glad to be born in Canada.

And what on earth are you talking about with dentists?  Why do americans always spew bizarre lies about our health care?  Do you really not know anything about it?

No, up here we have universal health care, equal rights, a decent social net, and we do it all without having to run torture camps or committing mass murder like the US

Answer 4

I am. Kicking azz in the olympics.

Answer 5

Not really. But in some situations, I fantasize that I was. I have a wide imagination, my friend.

But it's not just freedom. It's freedom with responsibility. I'm sure you know what I mean.

I say America is amazing and all that, but it's not the only country that's all that. ;)

Answer 6

I was and  d**n proud of it!

Answer 7

Nice country ,but you can't do what you want without consequences.i.e you could not join the communist party without it affecting your life

If you were to suggest Bin Laden has a point you might not get out of the bar alive lol.

.You can eats lots and lots of pizza though and drink copius amounts of coca cola ,I remember going to Florida and the most amazing site there was not the theme parks ,beaches not the everglades it was the size of the locals  

Answer 8

I lived in Canada for 8 months, hated every minute of it. Major shock.

Answer 9

Being an American is the best!!!!!  I am thankful to have been born here.

Answer 10

I was born in the USA, I love it there but I want to live in the UK for a while. I visited the UK last year and I love every minute of it. I live in NY and I find a lot of similarities to London.

Answer 11

Do I wish I had been born in the US? What? You're kidding! Why would I want to be born in the US where:

1. the death penalty is still practiced

2. American citizens cannot go to Cuba  whereas I can go anywhere in the world I want

3. redneck right wing loonies run rampant, reproducing indiscriminately and send one of them to the White House

4. there is no universal health care for all its citizens

What do you mean by "waiting for your 'free' health care"? Your comment clearly indicates that you have no knowledge about Canada or our health care system. So, allow me to inform you.

1. We do not have "free" health care nor does anyone here believe that we do. We pay for our health care through the taxes we pay. There is no "free" here. Don't you ever verify things you hear?

2. And "3 months for a dentist"? Our health care system does not pay for dentists; we pay upfront or else have supplemental dental care. Nobody waits 3 months for a dentist. Anyone can get in to see a dentist within a day.

Canada 1, USA 0

As for the matter of guns, what makes you think that you're better than everyone else just because you can buy a gun, run around the shoot people? Canada and Australia are civilized nations. Your nation may want to consider becoming one itself.

Australia 1, USA 0

Next time, I would suggest you do some actual research on Canada's health care system and Australia's gun policies before you go spouting off with your uninformed opinions as if they were facts.

Answer 12

no way its a dump the food is terrible the women are fat , and its full of racists every one is against each other the whites blacks and spainish who live in the country cannot get on . and it is the most hated people on the planet did you know that there is a company that gives americans a pack that lets them pretend to be canadian when they go on holiday. and your beer is rubbish too . australia poo poos on america

Answer 13

My kids were born in the US Ca, they have been over here to the Uk many times now and have said that they wished that they could have been born over here instead of the US ,that way they could stay here longer on thier visits, Now I wish I had regeristered their births with the Brit consulate so that they could have duel natioinality.

  And before you say it, it has nothing to do with being un-American,not every one wants what you have in America,that is something you cannot or will not understand  

Answer 14

No

Answer 15

We have loads more freedom in Australia.

Answer 16

Er... I was, but I left. And brainwashed idiots like you are one of the many reasons I'd have a hard time going back. Thanks for reminding me what I'm not missing.

Answer 17

No thanks. I'm happy being English and living here in England.

Answer 18

I was :)

High five brother!!!

Answer 19

No. I'm British and very proud of it!

God Save The Queen!

Answer 20

Isn't it great that everyone ,ok except the questioner, loves his own home?

And d**n it you should!

I was born US and have lived in 15 states coast to coast, north and south.

I have also traveled extensively and guess what?

There absolutely wonderful things about almost every place I have been! There were also things I missed from home. but whining about it just makes you sound like an annoying brat.

now shake it off, choose a cheerful attidude, and be nice to people.

Answer 21

No thanks i am happy enough here.

Answer 22

I was blessed to be born here.  Many are blessed to be able to come here.    God bless the USA.  

Answer 23

I could name worse places.

Answer 24

Not really. USA is a wonderful place to visit, but I am happy being german and living in Germany.

I think it is a mistake to compare. Germany and USA are both developed countries and in both you will find good and bad things. I would not say that  USA is better than Germany or that Germany is better than USA. They are just different.

The point is: Where do you feel better and which place  is for you your home, I like USA really, but I feel home in Germany.

By the way, how oft have you been in Germany, England, Australia or any other country? How long have you lived outside USA?. The only way to compare or say which place is the best for you is when you stay in a place long enough. I would not even begin comparing both systems because although I've been in USA as tourist several times, I've never lived there, so I can not really say what are the benefits or the disadvantages of it and honestly you can not believe all that you read on the papers or watch on TV.

I feel free in Germany, we do not have a dictatorial system just FYI and no we can not buy guns as you do, but the truth is, that no one in Germany is wanting to buy them, we do not  feel  that we need them. Is that better or worse? actually there are a lot of arguments for it and agaist it.  I think it depends on the point of view. If you need  weapons in USA it is OK, we do not need them in Germany, I think it is also OK, we are talking about two different countries with different ways of  living and thinking, why should be one of them wrong and the other right?

Answer 25

Never lived in Canada have you!

Born in the UK, born again in Canada!

Answer 26

No way - a good place to visit, and even better to leave....

Answer 27

No I don't.

Do you wish you could tell the difference between were & where?

Answer 28

No.  

Answer 29

Depends on where abouts in the USA really :S  

Answer 30

Ah f*ck no. Don't be silly.

Sure guns are legal. Which is a great pity. Means the odds of some loner in school killing your child is vastly increased.

If you think that you can do what you want when you want, I'd suggest your local police department will be quite willing to educate you on the concept of 'law and order' which you seem not to understand.

Ah, bloke who says you're kicking *** in the Olympics... you're not paying attention to the medals table, are you? I can tell.

Answer 31

who in their right mind would wish that?

america is old new's,  psst  by the way its were not where    american education at it's best!

Well said Z
