You seem obsessed with real estate "bubbles". Which leads me to the conclusion that you must be a long term renter, and there is some degree of resentment or regret driving your motivation to post these threads. Here's an interesting exercise. On May 2010, you declared a bubble in Australia and...

The truth doesn't register with some people. This site was peppered with Depression threads in 2009. The same people reject personal tax increases which is the only solid way to reduce your debt. Cutting spending seems more limited unless you lose your obsession with military in a major way.

There's nothing compassionate about his idea; all you are doing is adding yet another way that the US is destroying it's future by putting a price on citizenship, college education, health care that puts it out of reach for many people. So your nation gets older, less educated, and young people...

The ugly American act is boring and something most Canadians have seen for many years. We don't care. Canadians are patriotic about their country and most are tough as nails. Ask any professional sports team or successful corporate entity in the US what they think about Canadians and their...

Canada welcomes Silicon Valley firms to relocate to our country if they want. We already have a decent IT infrastructure in Waterloo and some firms are relocating some of their operations or investment money in that location. Trump is scaring off some people from the US. Many skilled immigrants...

When the good ones get blocked from the US they move to countries like Canada. Exactly how my wife ended up here after getting her Masters in the US. Our gain and your loss. And I suppose Trump's election is part of why my daughter doesn't want to live in California even though that's where her...

You are confusing the reality in the US to limited inefficiencies in our system. Again, you got the system you deserve, and if you are going to continue to make excuses and/or claim what a great system you have, there will be no solutions to it. If you love your system, then enjoy it and stop...

Convicted under torture and threats of death in an illegal prison. International law specifically protects child soldiers, but of course the US under Bush ignored pretty much all international law at every step.

Americans always seem to have excuses or people to blame for whatever ails them these days. Your concept of "working harder" is quaint. Your idea pf parceling off areas of your country to compare reminds me of some of the silly education discussions on this forum. Statistically, you can't pick...

Perhaps Americans should be aware of how many Canadian soldiers were killed by American soldiers, and be less worried about what a child soldier under attack allegedly did. You don't see American soldiers being sued by Canadians. And you should feel shame for continually torturing a young man to...

Life expectancy in the US is significantly lower then in Canada. You can talk this topic to death but hard facts like that cannot be ignored. Keeping people alive no matter what their financial position is a key part of health care. It's also a core part of Canada's value system. Certainly to...

Why did you need Canadians in Afghanistan then ? They weren't shipping maple syrup. Your world responsibilities are largely projects you chose because you can't keep your hands off other people's business and have poor priorities. You invaded Iraq at massive expense for NO good reason at all...

Only 1% of all surgeries occur out of country and the "private care system" in Canada is a relatively small operation except in the standard extended care areas like dentists, eye care, chiropractors, etc etc. . This "parallel private care system" you keep talking about, let's put it in...

Under what medical insurance are you covered and how much does it cost per year ? Perhaps you are one of many Americans that underpay their taxes and that's why your "debt to GDP" is at all time highs and insurance premiums are rapidly increasing. I do worry that you are one of the baby boomers...

You are truly delusional. She's an expert in the field and well spoken. You're an American in IT who uses Google. All you are doing here is illustrating the issues with current world where pseudo-experts in every topic post a lot of garbage on the internet and truly believe they have it all...

Utter nonsense, Trump's approval rating in Canada is 13%. If you dislike Canada so much, leave. Anyone who uses the terms "libtard" and "sanctuary city" in a post about Canada is seriously out of touch and doesn't understand this country at all. Just like with "Achilles28", one really has to...

Large numbers ? No, it's a small percentage. Watch the video; that doctor would destroy you in a discussion on this topic.

Your premise that only "liberals" were offended by systematic racism in South Africa isn't true at all. Yes, it is possible you were supportive of their policies. But you would be in a tiny minority of the US that believed in apartheid and racial segregation. Plus the mass killings and...

Some of these posters have their eyes closed to the current reality of the US. It is far more likely then one of the racist/intolerant posters on here like Scat------- goes on a violent rampage then some random American who happens to be darker skinned. Even if they don't commit a crime, they...

Time to check in on these fearless forecasts. 22 months have gone by, and the following is the current reality : SPX up 28% ( 1938 to 2475 ); US Interest Rates up 0.50%; US economy ok ; no recession; Gold pretty flat
