Canada is the better version of the States, so they don't like talking much about us over there since we have it so good

What the hell is Canada (?)

America is ten times more densely populated than Canada. There's going to be 10 times the amount news drama. There are so many gang problemsin the northern part of US and many racial problems in the southern US. Everywhere you go in the US you will find some sort of problem.

Oh, we have race issues. We also have gang issues. I'd say there are three main reasons we don't seem to have as many violent crime problems:

1. Less guns. We still have about as many guns as any developed country besides the US and Switzerland, but that works out to about 1/3 the number of guns as the average American (coincidentally, we also have 1/3 the murders per capita). We also have tighter gun control laws on guns designed to kill humans (automatic weapons, semi-auto pistols) than long guns designed for hunting, so those guns are more likely to be used to shoot animals than people. 

2. More relaxed drug laws. We're a little ahead of the US in decriminalizing marijuana. Throwing people in prison for minor drug offences risks socializing them as criminals and leading to more serious offences down the road. Every lucrative black market is life blood to organized crime.

3. More equality. This is the big one. Better social safety net, universal health care, better public education, more accessible post-secondary education. Our rich are less rich, but our poor are also less poor. Poverty breeds crime. 

This. And it's not true that canada does not has a religious right. The wester part got infected by that as well.  Our torries can be quite retarded as well sometimes. Some are just conservatives on the economic point of view which I still respect and believe might brings some valid points, but the the socially retarded one that keep making claims about creationism and that global warming does not exist really annoys me personally. People doesn't hear about it, but anybody paying attention to canadian's politics will be able to tell thatCanada has changed  a lot recently. This country used to have a very good reputation in international politics but it is less and less true. I'm less and less pround to be canadian actually.

The thing with this country is that there a lot of differences in cultures among the differents provinces. Sometines splitting the continent on an east to west perspective would make more sense than on a south to north one. For instance, eastern canada is more similar to the eastern (north) coast of the US with state like Vermont while the west coast look a lot like California. The central western part of Canada is more similar to the more conservative central part of the Us. 

It's the land where back in the day, slaves escape to. Calling it the land of the freedom. ....whoa....ironic huh :L

......You make me want to move there now, compare to AMerica, it sounds more pleasent to live there :(

1/10th the population of USA, and I think most Americans don't care about Canada. We are less violent, and our economy is in much better condition, but our culture is the same, we are also a mixing pot.

That's it. If we were as big as you guys, you would hear a lot more about us. However who wants to bomb Canada? We have almost no military, and what we have is specific towards peace keeping missions. We did back out of Kyoto Protocol though.

Jay520 stole my answer again. He's worse than that thing that sits above Amerikuh!

You know what sucks about our great country? Rogers. There. I said it.
