Canada as a nation has a concept of common good.

America is obsessed with the idea of not helping the poor because if they're not incentivized to "bootstrap," they'll get lazy.

Americans die of not having access to drugs that are developed In America and subsidized by American tax dollars.

I think we all know which is more ethical.

AtkinsRéalis (known as SNC-Lavalin at the time) is a Canadian construction company that was at the centre of a huge scandal in Canada. They were caught bribing the son of Libian dictator Gaddafi to get a contract to build a prison, allegedly for political prisoners.

While the Justice Minister was having this company prosecuted, the Prime Minister (Justin Trudeau) demanded that she give AtkinsRéalis a slap on the wrist and a deferred prosecution agreement. When she refused, she was driven from her position.

Canada's government has a history of propping up bad actors like this, and goes out of their way to support several oligopolies that run significant chunks of the Canadian market. Bell/Rogers/Telus own most of Canada's mobile and internet offerings, Loblaws/Sobeys/Metro own most of Canada's grocery stores, much of Canada's produce and meat are controlled by cartels, etc.. The maple syrup cartel is very powerful and wealthy and yes you're reading that right, there is a maple syrup cartel and even a maple syrup black market.

One special mention goes out to the Canadian Real Estate industry, which is full of actual crooks all over the place and just disgusting. Did you know in Canada it is legal for a real estate agent to represent both sides of a purchase? Agents also will refuse to work with any of the bargain agencies that charge less than the standard 2.5% commission, basically locking them out of the industry. This crap is part of why housing prices have bubbled so hard, and together with price fixing by landlords they have managed to keep Canadian housing prices at levels so stupid homelessness has increased several times over.

Canadian people are often too fixated on not being seen to be a problem, what some call "politeness", to the point they won't even stand up for themselves. That unwillingness to protest or try to change things has allowed this to happen for a very long time. Because of this awful "politeness" many Canadians are even cheering on new laws limiting union action.

tl;dr Canada is a banana republic and Canadians are cucked

I heard of how nice Canadians are, but where I live, all the Canadians I met so far are a bit of douche. Maybe it is just coincidence on my part, or the nice ones stay in their country.

florida is in a world of hurt once canadians completely stop going the state. we know they also grow citruses and houseplants, but it probably isnt enough for the state.
