[QUOTE="klein, post: 731197, member: 23950"] See, thats a thing you guys just don't understand. That Canada is much more conservative then the US is and probably will ever be. Bank regulations in place : No one gets to borrow, unless they have an income and a good credit score, and a significant downpayment for a house (if it's a mortgage). You can't just slip into the school system without being a Canadain Citizen or approved landed immigrant status. (just ask my scottish friend, what nightmare he had to finally enroll his kids to school) - they wouldn't accept his kids, not even on a tempory basis, until the kids were approved for immigration. (scotsman is duo citizen - cdn-scott), but his cdn passport wasn't good enough to enroll his own kids. If our goverment falls into debt, it's very likely our taxes go up, or government cuts follow (or both). We take care of the problem almost instantly. - The reason why we don't live in a higher standard then you. (good income , with low consumer prices and less taxes). I suppose Canada could do the same, (spend today, and worry about it tomorrow, but even the Canadian Liberal Party won't do so. (by the way , we have the conservatives in power currently). And what did all this conservatisum do for us ? : - The worlds strongest currency - Record breaking house prices and sales. - Growing economy with mortgages and interest rates rising - Low crime rate (City of Edmonton had it's 5th homicide of the year today) A city with over 1 Million in population. (and it was 2 drunks and one got stabbed). - A prideness of being Canadian. We don't bash our governments like you do, and it doesn't seperate our people. - welcomed everywhere on the planet with open arms (not so much in the US, but Europe.. it's a huge freebie for us). So much more is different here, but you'll need to spend some time here first, before you can talk about "liberal" Canada. Your fox news is crap. We can't even buy beer, wine, or any kind of booze at a supermarket. We need to shop at a likor or beer store. DHL is a different story. They still exist worldwide, even to both of your borders, just not in the USA. Face it, the overall costs are just to high in the US. They didn't look into that. But, it was a smart move to get out of the US. Take the big profits where you can, forget the losses or penny making buisnesses. In the long term, DHL might just be the big winner ! [/QUOTE]
