[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In fact, so easy to get into, to the point that it is filled with international students that failed at their studies back home are so they are sent to your schools.
Don't kid yourself, the only degree I've seen that hold some semblance of weight here is from McGill and even then it's only comparable to a 40-50 US school. 
The other "top flight" Canadian schools are thrown out with the rest of Podunk State U.[/quote]

I actually admire Canada's approach to higher education. First, there is more of a focus on grades than scores; and second, while the bar to entry isn't terribly high, the classes and grading are notoriously tough. I think it lets kids test their mettle. A bit of a sink or swim mentality but that's OK.

You may disagree but UBC, McGill and the University of Toronto are top notch schools. [/quote]

+1 a lot to admire about how the different systems in Canada actually work for the people as opposed to only working for the corporations/elite here at home[/quote]
