What Makes Canada a Great Place to Live?

Who is Ernst Zundel? and why is he in jail?

Anti-Terrorism Act: Official Site
http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com/index.cfm?PgNm=TCE&Params=M2ARTM0012675

The two most controversial measures in the act are so-called preventive arrests and investigative hearings. The arrest power allows police to detain a suspect without a warrant if they deem it necessary to stop a terrorist action. The power to compel individuals to testify at secret hearings is designed to make sure authorities can collect vital information on terrorist activities. While government is required to report annually on how these two extraordinary tools are used, it has done so only once since the law was passed, reporting that neither power was exercised in 2002. No report for 2003 has yet been released, prompting criticism from civil liberties advocates. But federal officials said the report for 2003 is being "fine-tuned" and should be made public soon. So far, only one use of the investigative-hearing power has come to light, in a Supreme Court challenge brought by a reluctant witness who was being forced to testify about the 1985 Air India bombing (the court ruled last June that the provision does not violate the Constitution).

Regarding the Canada vs USA argument that always seems to come up; I think that anyone who arrives at the conclusion that Canada's crimes are worse than USA's needs to re-examine their own history in a more "Liberal" fashion.

Well...does it always have to be a comparision, can't you give YOUR opinion of YOUR anti-terrorism laws?


BUT, speaking of "their own history" I noticed the map Ivan put up earlier in the thread had Maine as part of Canada...I can assure you that my French Canadian ancestors on my mothers side are ROLLING in their graves..and I personally find it somewhat offensive and culturally insensitive considering many of my ancestors on my mothers side walked for weeks to reach Maine and escape persecution in Canada in the mid 1800's. So please..Leave Maine out of your Canadization plans...thx@puleeese.com

Regardig Zundell inprisonement, he was thrown in jail for writing books!
Books about very controversial topic, but books nontheless.
What country does that? Saudi Arabia, China ? No! Canada beacon of freedom and liberty.
USA is 100 times more free and liberal than Canada, even under the Bush and Co!

PS. Who is behind Zundell inprisonement? Jewish lobby of course,and majority of spineless Canadians do nothing.HOW PEOPLE HERE CAN BE SO DUMB?

Kat express my contempt for my own government so many times. However I do believe that Canada is much more liberal than the USA, if I ever see an effective argument disproving that assertation I will only welcome it, but I havn't heard anything to even put Canada on par with the crimes of the US.

It seems to me that Canadians are more worried about Bush than Al-Qaida.

That's not far from the truth. Although Canadians don't approve of Al-Qaida's actions, Al-Qaida never did attack Canada (yet?). I feel much of the newer security measures in Canada are there to help the U.S.

Some Canadians are worried that Bush policies mean the US will try to run Canadian natural ressources in the future. The pre-emptive strike policy is quite contrary to Canadian values.

US's lumber and cow embargo probably hurt Canada more than Al-Qaida ever has. (Although perhaps they are indirectly due to US's problems with the middle east.)

where's the beef

Smurf

I have no "beef" with the queen. I simply don't understand why she is Canada's icon in abstentia, right? She resides in England, no?

I thought the Canadian governement severed ties with England (with their blessing of course) and gained their independence (governmentally at least) back in the 60's or 70's, I think the 70's. I am unable to access my brain file on that this second.

I am unable to think of the word, the group of countries that Britain had it's grip on like Australia and the others (i never took history and have flunked every IQ test for a good reason), and if I remember correctly it was as if Britain said, "Okay you are set free from us, but our finger you will always pheel" It reminded me of those who leave street gangs, they still walk with the tattoo, but are disconnected from the gang. I remember when I did some digging a few years ago on Canada I was mighty surprised.

The Queen reminds me of a ghost. Gone, but lingering. Hovering still over Canada.

I love Canada. Maybe one day I will live there (dreams are real). I have a plate that came to be (in an odd way) from Canada. It says Victoria, BC, Canada and is a lovely blue plate which matches my Blue Willow set. I'm preparing to just jump on an Amtrak in February, and head north. I'm in California so it would be a nice train ride North. I hear I would have to take a pherry from Seattle to BC. I guess I 'll have to wait and sea

Many things Canadian have found their way to me. Where I live now, there are some Canadians that are in and around. I :!) it.

My brother is marrying a Canadian gal next September, but I think she is from Ontario or Toronto (doesn't count, altho I will see New Foundland one day). I wonder if Canada would consider a citizenship swap. I'll gladly give her my American-whatever, on the condition that she give me hers. I better hurry and meet her before she sells her house to move to Cali. Maybe unlike most, if I buy, I could have a vacation home in Canada, and Cali and never pay taxes

My desire to go to Canada, possibly live there IF they'll have me has NOTHING to do with President Bush. He's doing his thing, and I"m doing my thing. Like I stated in my other post, since I was 5 while other girls were dreaming of Paris, or wherever, I was dreaming of Canada.


I would have to return to Cali to purchase books. My goodness ... the other day I purchased a book, it was 39.00 and in Canada it was 69.00 or 79.00 If a book catches my interest I'll pay whatever to own the book short term to receive the information, but to pay almost double what I am able to buy here for half? Wow. I would like to live close to the Northern border so the trip to the bookstore in WA wouldn't be far. Oh yeah, I guess it would have to be close to the pherry. I never believed in phairies till I was told one would definitely have to get me into Canada.

It's cool if Queen is still kickin' when I arrive there. I love green. My love for Canada makes no sense at all, and it doesn't have to. I do love the low-low crime rate. Wow, we Americans could sure learn a lot from yous. I better brush up on my English before my trip I red French and English are your country's *- languages and are taught in schools. Sometimes I wonder why America doesn't follow suit and just get over it and make Spanish/English America's languages. Afterall this used to be Mexico

Thank you for asking your question Smurf. I was able to arrive at a conclusion, without compromise, in me mind that has escaped me till now.

!Wait a minute, you are from BC Please pheel free to correct me on anything that is crooked in my response. If you care to, please email me at Oaracal@aol.com if you are up on custom's laws. I have read some, and all I know is I need to contact some outfit in San Francisco to make sure neither of us (myself and the Mr.) have no border problems.

I was recently married, and we are going to moonhoney in Canada. If he can get across the border it will be wei, and if not then it will be me. Probably just for a few hours if he is unable to pass customs. If you don't "do" email that's cool. Someone will, no problem. If he is unable to get across the border, he'll just have to wait in WA

 

[Smurf]

I would correct all your spelling mistakes.. but.. but... there's just too many of them. Let's start with 'pheel', it's feel, not pheel. ok now I'm off to school.

-Canada gained an independant government in 1863 but england remained in control of various aspects such as foreign affairs, after ww1 we gained control of our foreign affairs and were recognised by the world as fully independant.

Edit: the queen only has symbolic power and all positions appointed by the queen (such as Governor General) don't have any power and pretty much have to do what they're told.

Edit2: ok really have to go to school now

Edit3: I'm glad your inffatuated with Canada, makes a nice change from the usual crap we get from Americans.

Edit4: Crap I missed my bus.

 

[Gonzolo]

xck, I feel like keeping your post and mail it to some of my Canadian friends. As for books, I am wondering whether the book prices you saw weren't in Canadian currency. Only a few years ago it was valued at about 66% of US currency, so the difference wasn't so bad.

As for the Queen of England, there probably isn't enough pressure or motivation to boot her completely, it's not anyone's priority. As long as she does (and only does) what Canadians tells her to do (what the prime minister advises her, such as naming the Governor General), she's cool. The whole gouvernment system is based on the British one after all.

Canada gained full control of its constitution in 1982. This usually view as the year Canada became indepent. Prior to 1982, to change its constitution, Canada had to go to england and request changes. In 1982, the constitution was brought back to Canada, and now, the Canadian government can change the constitution when ever it wants with the aggrement of the provinces. England (i.e. the queen) has no constitution and legistative power in Canada since the Canada Act in 1982.

There is also the 1931 Statute of Westminster, where all self-governing dominion of the British empire, which include Canada, gained legislative sovereignty. This is also viewed by some people as the independce of Canada.

hmm.. I'm a HS senior and considering going to school in Canada. this is interesting. since there are so many people from Canada that are reading this thread I'm just going to throw this out there: would it be that hard for me be able to get into Canada if i just want to study? and what are some of the good schools(i've heard about some like U of Toronto, McGill but can't really find too much info about how good they are... ).

and yes i don't like the direction we are going in right now but I'm for the most part, politically apathetic, so that's not my main reason...

If you have the internet, you listen to that radio station. I am not from halifax. I am studying there.

As far the relation goes, if you are Canada you probably heared the CTRC decision about closing CHOI 98.1 in Quebec city. The logo is from that radio station and the signature is the song by Les pistolets roses called "Liberté" that was written few before the CTRC in relation to the situation with the radio station.

McGill and U of Toronto ranking in the top 100, and often in the top 50, for the university in the world. Someone posted link to website that had the ranking.

the place is limited for american student but if you are in the best applicant you go get in without much problem.

I go to UWO (University of Western Ontario) and it’s consistently ranked among the top 5 schools in Canada for medical (3rd this year: http://www.macleans.ca/universities/) as well as this year, grads from Western ranked their overall university experience higher than any other school in Canada. It’s a great school, not just for medical, but overall.
www.uwo.ca

As for how difficult/easy it is to study here, I’m guessing it’s pretty easy considering how many foreign students attend my school. Just check out a school website and find ‘international students’. That should give you all the info you need.

In 1982 Prime Minister Trudeau and Finance Minister Chretien along with the Queen signed into effect the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, effectively severing ties with England.

I am unable to think of the word, the group of countries that Britain had it's grip on like Australia and the others (i never took history and have flunked every IQ test for a good reason), and if I remember correctly it was as if Britain said, "Okay you are set free from us, but our finger you will always pheel" It reminded me of those who leave street gangs, they still walk with the tattoo, but are disconnected from the gang. I remember when I did some digging a few years ago on Canada I was mighty surprised.

The word is Commonwealth. And I don't quite get the gang comparison.

The Queen reminds me of a ghost. Gone, but lingering. Hovering still over Canada.

I'm in California so it would be a nice train ride North. I hear I would have to take a pherry from Seattle to BC. I guess I 'll have to wait and sea.

I live in Victoria, the place where your plate is from. And yes, if you wanted to come to the city you would have to take a ferry from either Seattle or Vancouver. Vancouver and the rest of BC, however, can be accessed from land.

Many things Canadian have found their way to me. Where I live now, there are some Canadians that are in and around. I :!) it.

My brother is marrying a Canadian gal next September, but I think she is from Ontario or Toronto (doesn't count, altho I will see New Foundland one day).

I never believed in phairies till I was told one would definitely have to get me into Canada.

You can drive into Canada there homeslice. As I said above, a ferry is only required if you want to go to Vancouver Island or the Gulf Islands.

The Canadian dollar is around .80-.85 right now. Those prices would not be nearly as severe anymore. The dollar used to be around .60-.65.

It's cool if Queen is still kickin' when I arrive there. I love green. My love for Canada makes no sense at all, and it doesn't have to. I do love the low-low crime rate. Wow, we Americans could sure learn a lot from yous. I better brush up on my English before my trip I red French and English are your country's *- languages and are taught in schools. Sometimes I wonder why America doesn't follow suit and just get over it and make Spanish/English America's languages. Afterall this used to be Mexico.

French is not really taught that much in our schools. I took eight years of it, but it is only required you do one year I think. And it's not in depth at all, I can't speak french worth a damn, even after eight years. It is an official language though, and it is on all of our cereals, beverage containers, laundry detergents et al. It is not, however, on street signs and stuff like that. The only province that is truly bilingual is New Brunswick, where stop signs say both "Stop" and "Arret".

Thank you for asking your question Smurf. I was able to arrive at a conclusion, without compromise, in me mind that has escaped me till now.

I wonder why would anyone come to Canada to live here in this frozen wasteland? Australia,New Zealand would be much better choice, and you have your Quenn still in place.
Except province of Quebec rest of Canada is wild,uncivilized and crude.One thing I like here and my reason for living here is spectacular nature, sadly trees are being cut in most pristine places, oil scraped from thousand of hectares of praries etc, in other words it is going downhill fast.

PS. if you guys decide anyway to come here,learn some karate or kung-fu, because people here are very short tempered and dangerouse and you must be ready to fight those Canadian yahoos!
I have been assaulted verbally and physically here without any provocation and almost beaten recently, since then I carry 10 inch kitchen knife in my backpack all the time! I know it is illegal to carry knife, but I rather be alive!
One more thing; watch for your possessions /valuables, thiefs are everywhere they stole even my old rusted street bike,couple years ago I lost new m.bike(i'm still in shock over loss of that brand new bike ) my friend was robed twice, and so on and on.

So every Canadian should have his 10 inch knife...eh? I'm actually not sure how serious you are here. I probably haven't been in those areas where you use kung-fu, but you won't convince me that Canada is more dangerous than New Zealand, Australia and especially the US. Canada's cold only part of the year. Eastern Canada is equally civillized, Quebec or not. And if the Queen is more in the shadow than in NZ, and Australia, it's in great part because of Canadian bilingualism and multiculralism; she just isn't any more meaningful to the Francophones than any other present random monarch.

oh oh Canada's

Smurf ~ Thank you for your Edit #Tree. Interesting on your (drag) Queen On your Edit # Four LOLOLOL Thanks

Gonzolo, thank you very very much for your kind post. warmed my heart..the thought of me zooming around some Canadians in cyber space before i get there psychically. ty.

ionsmith ~ !Wow, thank you very much for the info and the link. I can't wait till i return on Sunday (from ...) to investigate

EK ~ English is my first language. German should be my second (haven't used it in years) since I took two years of it - love the sound of it.

I taught English within a charter school. ONLY in America No sheet! It was then I first discovered science, because I had to teach it. It blew me away. I understood it but I had never given it any thought. I loved it. When I discovered we had (we're talking 4th grade level) four states of matter, and in my "teacher's" edition it stated, DO NOT confuse the child with four states of matter, leave PLASMA out of your class ... well it absolutely got the attention of my inner-X-catholic-school-girl and I had to know. I'm swerving in this post...back to Canada, THANK YOU!

Here's a phunny to leave you with. We now have a Pier One Imports shop in town. I went there the other day for the first time looking for Canadian imports. When I asked the clerk for assisstance she look so puzzled. They had none so I went to the store and stocked up on Canadian Whiskey (i don't drink alcohol). I am very happy that I found my Canadian imports.

thank you for "commonwealth" that word completely escaped me . i think that's a nice word for - I'm entitled to keep my hand on/in your wallet, we do it all the time so it's common" sort of deal. Someone is paying the Queen's electric bills, costumes etc., and I hope it is just the Britts since she is afterall their "pope" in drag. I am probably wrong about that.

I was thinking I had to take a pherry to Canada. I knew WA was below BC , sometimes I'm too busy thinking (brain race) to catch the obvious. Yes, I, we, oui, will travel on Amtrak or in our "erg" vehicle. I don't care to visit an island, as it is the mountains that call me - this weekend our usual Cali jaunt, and definitely to Canada in February.

Alaska is what confused me probably. I know we couldn't always drive there. Right? Then again I thought I read somewhere that was part of the path (asia/russia - berriing straits, alaska Canada usa/ ) for pre neandertal (?) (the true native americans-mixed in with south/central america etc.) walked in on right? I've not stayed current. I have deviated from Canada topic. From what I understand, only recently (ten years maybe more) we have been able to drive into Alaska. That was my confusion.

Off to find a hominid thread for info since my brain just kicked into overdrive. I leave you with this...yesterday on my way home there was a car in front of me at the stoplight, and I saw the usual fish glyph that usually has jesus name in it, well THIS fish had Darwin's name in it. I almost followed the car home to find out where she purchased it, but I decided that wasn't a good idea.

10" knife will do nothing but provide a false sense of security. The weapon of choice for a Canadian Yahoo is a hockey stick- you'll never get close enough to use that knife. If by some miracle you do get close enough, make sure you've got your fighting straps securely in place or it will be lights out pretty quick.

You can drive to Alaska. Always could. Just up through British Columbia, across a bit of the Yukon most likely and boom you're in Alaska.

And those darwin fish are all over the place, at least they are here.

And although I do live on an island, it happens to be the biggest island in the Pacific Ocean outside of the Japanese main islands. So it's really only an island in that it's waterlocked. It lacks the island feel because it's self sufficient and has a comparatively large population.

And yes the theory is that people first came to North America via the Bering Strait between Alaska and Russia which freezes over in the winter.

And if you want mountains, then where you really want to go to is Alberta. BC has some mountains, but the Coast Range is not even close to the magnitude of the Rockies.

Anyway;one more nugett of truth about Canada.
In USA one knows very well not to go alone to the "south or east" side of town,because that is where slums and crime ridden elements live, on the other hand "north or west" part of the city is extremally safe.
In Canada this sharp division is almost non existent,Canada is slowly changing into one big slum and random acts of violence are happenning anywhere regaldless of city area.There is just no place to hide here.
If I had some cash I would build hut in the forest far from Canadian rabble/sheeple, but since I'm stuck here my knife :!) is my only defence.

I don't think so...check your atlas,New Guinea is 10 x bigger than Vancouver Island,even New Zealand or Sakhalin islands are much bigger.
Indonesia and Philiphnes are on Pacific Ocean too.
As to the size Vancouver Island is on the bottom of the list.

I don't need to check an atlas bud.

New Guinea, Indonesia and the Phillipines are not in the Pacific Ocean. Neither is Sakhalin Island, not even close.

New Zealand is close, but it is generally considered to be in the Tasman Sea. Although a case could be made for it being in the Pacific.

Vancouver Island is on the bottom of the list? Do you realize how stupid that statement is? Just by your posts in this thread alone you sound like an idiot but really, are you that dim? There are hundreds and hundreds of islands in the Pacific. Check your atlas.

Anyway;one more nugett of truth about Canada.
In USA one knows very well not to go alone to the "south or east" side of town,because that is where slums and crime ridden elements live, on the other hand "north or west" part of the city is extremally safe.
In Canada this sharp division is almost non existent,Canada is slowly changing into one big slum and random acts of violence are happenning anywhere regaldless of city area.There is just no place to hide here.
If I had some cash I would build hut in the forest far from Canadian rabble/sheeple, but since I'm stuck here my knife :!) is my only defence.

I'm sorry, but what is this drivel?

You make Canada sound like Iraq.

You go around with a knife? Are you some kind of psycho?

Aren't you from some other country anyway? Why haven't you been deported yet?

And what, exactly, is rabble/sheeple?

I stand by my previous statement

The funny thing is the other guys were joking about hockey sticks and maple syrup bombs but this guy is serious.

I'm a little freaked out there's guys like him walking around with a knife. Good thing he's 4000 km away.
