Heck, even Justin Bieber fits my description, he's a total jerk even on live TV.

Has anyone here had similar experiences with Canadians?

-I find Canadians to be more socially conscious and the government has better programs to support its citizens.

-We have a health care system and our citizens will not go bankrupt after a couple day visit to a hospital.

-Our financial / banking system is one of the strongest in the world. When the U.S. was in trouble - Canada was in good shape.

-In Canada - we do not bear arms. Our crime rate is nill compared to the U.S. There were 76 murders and this is in a large metropolitan multi-cultural city in 2011 - Toronto GTA - population 5M.

-I have found Canadians are more accepting of people's differences - no matter what that is - nationality, race , religion, or sexual orientation.

-Canadians can travel and vacation in Cuba without any government restriction.

-Travelling on a Canadian passport abroad comes with less hassles as Canadians are well liked abroad. I noticed a real difference.

-Canada has provinces and territories - not states.

-I find culturally there are some things that are the same and some that are different and that very much differs by area. People in Toronto are much like those in NY or any big city. People in Vancouver I find very much like people in California and those in Alberta - find have similarities to those in south and specifically Texas.

-Canadians know more about the U.S. than Americans know about Canada.

-Our government in Canada is a parliamentary system. There is a Prime Minister of Canada not President. We have 3 main parties. (PC, Liberal and NDP). We have Premier of Provinces not Governors.

-Our Universities and Colleges are reasonably priced and almost any Canadian who has the grades can attend. The average price of one year in a 4 year University including room/board is around 15K and there are good government programs for school loans. There are some that cost a bit more and some less as there are some institutions focused on particular areas such as Engineering, Business, The Arts....etc.

-Maternity Leave is a Year in Canada

-When people get laid off in Canada- severance packages are significantly greater than their American counterparts.

-Canada is to hockey as the U.S. is to football.

Canadian humor is a lot of broad trash like "Royal Canadian Air Farce" that most people would rather kill themselves than watch

they're not really friendly at all. it's more like a superficial friendliness at best.
