Exactly my point in posting this. The expected people missed the point, and those expected to get it, did.
Having worked in Canada for several years now, there are plenty positive things about the country. However all countries have their negatives.... some more, some less.
The way to make progress in a country is first admitting the negatives that are obvious to a vast majority of the population. Everyone I speak with complains about the healthcare system in Canada. My co-worker just waited 22 weeks for an MRI.
When an individual such as nine_ender can not admit the obvious truths, which are well documented in the media and Canadian government information, then you know they do not have an effective grasp on reality. Nor should any of their absurdly negative commentary about other countries or individuals be deemed to carry any weight or significance.
