Who says we hate Canada? The only thing I hate is the long and cold winters, but they seem to get warmer and shorter every year. The cost of living is a little high, but it's still cheaper then most other countries. I would never want to live anywhere else.

1. Taxes too high
2. Cost of living too high
3. Government controls too many aspects of living
4. Punishment for criminals too lenient
5. Rights for regular people non-existent
6. Caters to lobby groups for votes only
7. Recourse for Political wrong doing non-existent
8. Climate too harsh
9. Minimal chance for a regular person to get ahead and grow assets, there is no "Canadian Dream"
10. Attitude of the people

I have to get back to work, but maybe I can add ten everyday.

if you hate the country you live in, get the hell out of it.

-------

i immensly despise one thing about canada

the fact that we allow immigrants from all over to come in and change the established values within society.

my parents are immigrants, but they adapted.

'different' cultures are allowed additional rights and freedoms which should not be the case if we are all truly equal.

why can a man wear a turban in a court, while i cannot wear a head dress of my choosing?

a woman wanting to wear her muslim cowl and scarf or whatever around her face for a driver's license photo should not even be an issue. if she can wear that to a bank, i should be allowed to wear a ninja mask to the bank. i don't see the difference in regards to rights and freedoms.

my religion, brucefeeism tells me that i have to carry a gun and spit in the face of all who refuse to kneel before me. is canada going to grant me the human rights i deserve?

witin a 5 minute drive, i can go to three different malls, where i will not understand the majority of the writing on signs for the stores. I used to get dirty looks, but now they're used to round eye infiltrating the dragon centre.

canada has a national holiday for christmas.. yet my university made me write an exam on christmas eve at 4pm, while the whole school is given a day off for jewish holidays?

i have no problem with people keeping their traditions. I have a problem with people expecting others to bend over backwards to meet their desires.

It's like going to a hardcore muslim country and expecting them to open up a strip club with alcohol for locals.

---

regarding taxation and government stupidity, you're going to get that anywhere.. at least my taxes don't go towards bombing countries. i'd rather see them wasted on political hookers and coke.

i'd like to move to a country like sweden.. but i find the relationships i have with friends and family too important to be valued over money and government.

Leaving is the plan

And I agree with what you hate, but I was trying to be politically correct

Family and friends are welcome to visit. Atleast the government wasting money on the bombs knows what it is after, and has a sense to lead to that destination. The Government here can't even lead the sheep in this country.

Time for Paul Martin to stand for something. Time to $hit or get off the pot becuase this country is going to go to hell waiting for action. Atleast Chretien stood for ripping Canadians off, and was successful at it.

hey, if i go into politics and make it somewhere... you're welcome back... and you won't have to pay backtaxes.

i have seriously thought about going into politics a number of times.. i dunno if i want to though... i alright got some rich guy who like me who's told me if i ever need.. he'll hook up fundraisers for me....

i could solve illegal drug trafficking in one day.

the top priority of my agenda would be remove a number of agendas at all levels of government.

no more discussing midget tossing and special rights awareness.
