pro - universal health care (it's not free but it's available for EVERYONE to use, we just pay with our taxes)
- pretty damn good education system
- diversity (we are MULTICULTURAL not a Melting pot, and I'm proud of that. i hate melting pots)
- 4 seasons
- no tolls on the highways
- cleaner cities
- good gun control
- fun colourful money (hehe sorry I had to add it in)
- second hardest currency in the world to counterfeit (which really just means counterfeit money won't collapse our economy eventually)
- high minimum wage (compared to the US anyways)
- booming job opportunities out west
- MOST countries respect us around the world
- Tim Horton's!!! (seriously for us Canadians it is a HUGE pro)

Cons - higher taxes to pay for some of the pros
- right now we have no good choice for our leader (although a lot of countries seem to face this right now)
- 4 seasons. lol those winters can be brutal
- I lost my train of thought....I'll edit when I regain my train of thought.
