I am from Canada and Tarus is correct, we Canucks have it good compared to many other countries.

I have visited and or lived in different areas of Canada from coast to coast, from the northern tundra and permafrost to the 49th parallel and would not live anywhere else but here in British Columbia.

Depending on where you live here, sure it gets cold and the gas is expensive but this is the price of freedom and for the millions of unspoiled acres of land that have never seen the footprint nor felt the presence of humans.

I am Canadian also and very proud of it, I feel truly blessed to have grown-up and live in the country I do.

I have traveled extensively in my home province of Ontario but have never been west of Winnipeg, I really need to make the trip to BC before my kids leave home.

If I can help anyone who is traveling to Ontario with information please feel free to ask.

Good for you! It's nice to see people proud of their country. We have driven into Ontario and spent a week touring around, and really liked it. One of my dreams is that when I retire, we can spend a couple of months driving around Canada, and would love to ride the trains also.


The country is beautiful, and the people are very friendly. I'm glad to have them as neighbors!

Alberta has no rats.

Parts (soon probably all) of Yosemite National Park are being eaten alive by bark beetles...

It just as varied as the US. Most of our real wonders are hidden in the North and West of the country. It is a country that you want to step off the trail and wander seep into the wilderness. It is also very vast.

I have to agree 100% with Taurus. I think everyone should be made to live somewhere else for at least two years in another part of the world, to give them the opportunity to see how good they have it (at least those that live in the Western Hemisphere). There are lots of great things about every country and until you live the life in another country it is difficult to appreciate what you have and take for granted.

Living away from Canada really makes me appreciate what is there and I really miss it. Although, they are starting to get Tim Horton's down here. Just add Canadian Tire and Swiss Chalet and I'll never have to go home again!!!

Lovely country, great people. Always enjoyed any trips to Canada (mostly in Lower Ontario). My wife and I honeymooned in Toronto 20 years ago and still have many, many fond memories.

Back a long, long time ago my buddie and I met 3 canadian girls at the beach, twins and their friend, we ended up spending the day and most of the night with them (at a nightclub, I wouldn't want anybody to get the wrong idea here.) They were really friendly, I've loved canadians ever since.
