We have our share of rude idiots. We're not all polite.

And if you think we have clean air, you should see Hamilton, Ontario, Canada's 
Steeltown.

We have our share of urban blight, gunplay in highschools, crackwhores, racial 
profiling by cops, all those fun things. Maybe not to the extent that you have 
it in larger US cities, but it's all here.

Don't get me wrong, I love Canada; there's no other place in the world I would 
choose to live in. I'm just warning against idealizing.

Cheers,
frank

I have fantasies about fleeing to Canada. Clean air, polite people, and I'm way 
better at warming up than cooling off.  To the point that I just shaved my head.
