Canada is in every way like the United States, except they are less full of themselves, less full of shit, and less full of American propaganda.
They are more democratic than America could hope to be in actuality.
With the mixed blessing of being the forgotten, frozen "siamese twin" nation, they are able to see where other countries fall short and quietly, sensibly make the correct changes for an even more efficient, and strikingly democratic government of their own. Americans are overall grossly uninformed about Canada, and although Canadians hate us, at least the opposite isn't true about their media.
If anything, Americans should be jealous of Canadian's freedoms and not so proud of their own mislead nationalism. Perhaps they are.
