Agree entirely.  I was born and raised in Canada...if I could get a similar job there, I would go back now.  Still have friends and some family in Montreal and Toronto. 

Funny..when I was growing up in Canada, I always assumed life was better south of the border.  It wasn't until I'd lived in the US awhile, that I realized the magnitude of some of the problems here, and how much more civil and reasonable life was in Canada. 

Now, which party do you think is going to end up winning the election?  I'm not surprised about the vote of non-confidence last night.  And that shows another huge difference between the 2 countries, namely the effectiveness of a political 3rd party, not to mention 4th party.  The parties banded together, outvoted the majority ruling party.  Very interesting turn of events.  If that could only happen here.
