What in the world are you talking about?  What is the matter with the Canadians on Y/A?  Every single thing out of your mouths is just bashing the U.S. for one reason or another.  Usually there isn't any reason?  What is your major malfunction?  Why in the world do you despise us so much?  Give an actual answer that makes some sense.

When you're at the top of the mountain, you get a false sense that the things below you have nothing to offer. I'm not trying to be arrogant, but it's the truth.

Canada sucks and the only Americans that move to Canada are the liberals who dodged the draft in the 60's. All the famous Canadians  that people care to know about live in the USA. Thats gotta suck for you guys.
