    First of all, who is "you". Since I was a first generation immigrant in the late 1960s, I don't pretend to have any connection at all with what some Canadians or Canadian institutions did in the 1930s. I can support the Canadian governments public denouncement of those policies and people, but that's the extent of it.

    Second of all, you miss the main point, that being what countries are doing today with respect to social issues and how they treat minorities and low income people. In that context, the US has serious problems, problems that dwarf any similar problems that exist in Canada. Problems that can be overcome but there has to be the will to do it and acknowledgement that there is a problem. Instead, you are trending backwards in this regard under Trump.

    Posting history clearly indicates your habits on here and that you have in fact been far more aggressive then me in recent months on this site. Nobody made you put up this thread; nothing I have posted instigated it. But like a child having a tantrum you did, and now you are indignant that I am calling you out on your behavior.

    Seriously, dude, you just aren't that important. Are you really so stupid that you didn't understand why I have no need to refute your "evidence" ? Others have tried to explain to you why this exercise is a waste of time, but it always goes way over your head. I tried explaining to you why your use of statistics was flawed, but you seemed unable or unwilling to believe that.

    First, despite your claims -- I am not really a Trump supporter.

    Second, the problems in Canada continue to this very day. As outlined by your own government the educational gap in Canada between whites and blacks is larger than the U.S. The long waits in your healthcare system for basic procedures such as MRIs are a current problem documented by your government. The abuse of the First Nations continues to this current day via established government policy.

    Does the U.S. have issues? Yes. And we are willing to acknowledge them when presented with facts & statistics which demonstrate the issue.

    Your continual abuse of others and telling them to F-off when they are being reasonable is what brought this on. You may want want to take a good look at yourself and your continually abusive online behavior.

  5. I see. When it is something favorable to Canada, your memory and affiliation run deep. When it is something not favorable to Canada, then it is "hey man, don't blame me, I just got here."

    I wouldn't want to race you to the lifeboats. You have experience.

    You are delusional to think you are being reasonable. You are clearly not as evidenced by your words and approach. I could line up your posts from the last few months in order and it is clear you love to preach and complain about those who don't follow your beliefs.

    Look squarely at yourself. Just like Trump, there is something off about you.

    We can line up all of your posts telling people to F-off and abusing them.

    Shall we start with some basic examples...

    When in Rome ...

    Context is everything on here. There are people on this site who post racist themes and bigotry all the time. I'm not adverse to firing back. Just like I'm not adverse to firing back when you arrogantly post about topics you have limited knowledge about but refuse to see any other side but your own. Which is far too often.

    Look, you can make all the claims you want about me, or NFL players, or Canada, or Democrats, or why the good people in Cary NC are somehow above so many on this planet. But it doesn't matter to me, I don't respect your approach.
