Canada has a huge land mass, the second largest in the world, BUT our population is 90 percent SMALLER than that of the USA ( we are 32 million, they are about 300 million ) so we have much less crowding and more open spaces.

Someone mentioned fresh water. Canada has over four MILLION lakes and rivers, and we contain about 25 percent of ALL the fresh water on the planet.

Canada is a safe, clean and friendly country, with a well educated and healthy workforce. Social systems are fully developed and we have one of the best standars of living in the world. Canada has a world wide reputation as a country that leads in financial aid to the third world, and we accept more U.N. charter refugees than any other nation, per year, based on our population.

Canada was the first country in the world to..........

Grant voting rights to women..

Establish a national and universal old age pension.

Establish a national program of unemployment insurance.

Make it law to prohibit descrimination of any kind, be it racial, religious, or sexual

Introduce a national, universal health care program.

Volunteer it's military forces to act under the U.N. charter, as peacekeepers, and we have been involved in EVERY U.N. peacekeeping mission, ever since 1950.

So yes we are the next door neighbours of the USA, but we are very clearly, NOT Americans. Not in spirit nor in actions.

We have had a peacefull and orderly counrty, free of internal wars, political murders and gangsters, and along the way ,we have learned from the errors of our neighbours to the south.
