I am exceedingly proud of what North America has accomplished.

You can stop taking credit for what the United States has accomplished that Canada has had nothing to do with.

I know a lot of Canadians and like most of them, present company excepted. But what Canada has done in your lifetime is basically create a nation which can't live with itself but is perpetually in danger of breaking apart, create an economy which, in BC at least, is imploding and demanding massive job cuts in the public sector, create a health "care" system which encourages those who can afford it to leave the country to get necessary operations which they have to wait years for at home, and allow its currency to be devalued to about 2/3 of its value of not so many years ago.
