Canada is a country in North America that is next to the United States, and it's the 2nd largest country in the world by area (size is 9.985 million km²). This country has 10 provinces, and 3 territories. Canada became a dominion on July 1, 1867. Its 10 provinces are: Ontario, British Columbia, Quebec, ...read more. People who voted for Canada don't really know what they're talking about. Visit a city like Saskatoon of Winnipeg and then tell me how great and safe it is. Canada has the 8th highest crime rate in the world and a Territory (Nunavut) with higher homicide than any US state. Most people seem to think Canadians don't have guns, but last time I checked we had the 13th highest gun ownership rate in the world and northern communities are filled with them. People who think Canada isn't prone to terrorist attacks should really check out the global terrorism index. You'd be surprised.
Every Canadian knows that feeling when you cross over the US border and you suddenly feel like your life is just slightly more in danger. That's what happens when you have legalized ownership of handguns and assault rifles and a history of bloodshed (revolution, civil war, Vietnam, Iraq, etc). Although crime exists in Canada, it is generally well reported and people have faith in the judicial system. Even white collar crime doesn't go unpunished.
I'm so shocked that people think that Canada's not as safe as the US! What I wouldn't be surprised that seeing the US's crime rate, it would be the UNsafest country in the world. Shootings, Sandy Hook, Boston Marathon...
Canada's the best place to live in, according to "TheTopTens", so.
I am a Canadian, and I am not going to compare Canada or the US, because I'm a Canadian. And Canadians are friendly. I like all countries. I don't care which country is first or second. I'm just happy to be a Canadian! Oh, I'm supposed to vote, right? I vote my country because it's Safe here and lower crime rate.
I'm happy for new zealend. Good job NZ
