I am so fortunate to be a Canadian citizen

I have absolutely no desire to live in Canada.

Surely, however, you could see how others might have a different opinion.

I can only imagine what that makes us. I'm sure our rednecks put Canadian rednecks to shame.

Hah, no.
The only people who would believe that are the Chinese.

NP here.
My kids both got into U of T. They chose McMaster instead. My kids aren't super smart either. U of T is no Harvard.

What good are these "top flight ranked" universities if no one in the U.S. has ever heard of them?

My PM attended McGill. The Harvard of Canada.

And how many people would know that?

And anyone who can afford it at all comes to the U.S. for their healthcare.

They have health care for all, not *good* health care for all.

Do you understand how obnoxious it is to say something can't be impressive unless people in the US have anointed it so???

My cousin was just here for a week. They call him "Mr. Dress-Up"

That's an insult to Mr. Dress-Up.

Canada is boring.

I heard Toronto guy’s are friendlier than Washingtonians and Virginians. Is it true?

Wow a lot of classic ignorant americans on here. Anyone who lives close to the border would have a lot more nuanced insights about Canada. As far as UofT and McGill they are like large state research-intensive state schools like UC Berkeley or Imperial College in London. There are no private Ivy-league type Univerisities in Canada - the Eastern part of Canada feeds into the. New England ivies but the top students in the more rigorous programs in Canada are known to be on par with and feeders to top grad programs at HYPMS etc...

Canadian here-

I went to one of the best universities in Canada and it cost me $10k total. I’m very proud to be Canadian. However, I would never create a smug post like this. That is very UnCanadian. You must be from Toronto.

They came so they no longer would have to buy their milk in bags.

We don't all buy milk in bags.

We don’t buy our milk in bags on the west coast. We are civilised

Ps. Our mountains are nicer and we have better hockey players.
