What do Americans have to worry about that Canadians dont?

Aw shit I mean uhhhhh no?
Ah yeah, of course not. Who would live in a hellscape where having an apartment to yourself is a fantasy?

Have you seen Canadian house prices?
Canada has some of the least affordable cities in North America but it also has some of the most affordable cities. If you are able to move then Canada has some very affordable options. But I appreciate that the ability to move is a luxury that many folks don’t have because of circumstances like family commitments.

Food. Shelter. Healthcare. In a lot of places water. Just staying in general is markedly more difficult.

Oh, and by squatting, I mean literally squatting down and taking an actual shit on our constitution, not squatting like inhabiting illegally, because apparently the majority of our country actually asked for this.

To me it lately sounds like Canadians do need to worry a bit about "freedom" being brought to them.
Like the French with the Germans back then.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Lol. We have ~3 grocery stores and everyone knows they collaborate to rip us off. I'd take food off the list.
It's been a while since I checked, but I think Vancouver was the most expensive city for a while in terms of property values and rent. Nowhere is as cheap as cheap US areas, and southern Ontario is close to Vancouver. It should be getting a bit better, but that's because the government went into disaster mode to fix it.
The healthcare and water are legit, though.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]Most affordable compared to what? Non-western cities can get crazy cheap. I remember a video of a day out on the town in Lilongwe, Malawi for a single USD.
I'm in rural Alberta, and you're still going to be hard-pressed to find a sub-1000CAD rental.

Avoiding the famous things...
Tracking mud into someone's house. The most striking cultural difference is literally just taking your shoes off as a guest.
Alligators, tropical diseases, hurricanes for the most part.
Flag-worship. Which is ironic because tomorrow is Canada Day, but really the US is on a whole other level.
Government deadlock.
Pennies.
Embargoing Cuba.

Unpopular opinion, don't think he actually got the votes.

Canada invading from the north

To clarify for anyone who missed it:
Trump made a law that states that the president of the US is above the law.
This means that, even after the next election, he could remain president, since the laws that prevent this don’t apply to him. He could also just straight up shoot one in the streets and wouldn’t be able to be punished.
To clarify, Trump passed no such law. It was a supreme court ruling that happened last year, during the end of Biden's presidency. It only applies to official actions, so could be interpreted to not apply to violations while campaigning for office (but this is the same supreme court that put the presidency above the law)
It gives the president unchecked power, if they choose to abuse it

If I’m not mistaken taxes aren’t automatically deducted from American pay cheques, correct me if I’m wrong.

Getting shot anywhere you go

I practice my quick draw relentlessly so I always shoot first.
