Im siding with Canada thus far but wan't a few more opinions...

House price's (Renting most likely)
Weather
Pro's & Con's
Shit to do basically lol...



I'ts either Vegas & Bahamas for a holiday (Vacation for you faggots) or move away...& I fucking hate this country right now lol

What do you do professionally? Most professional jobs make more money in the U.S. The cost of living is also generally more inexpensive in the States. However, the economy of Canada is a lot stronger right now. You would find a job quicker here. 90% of Canadians live within 200 miles of the U.S. border which means the weather in most Canadian major cities like Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary...is not that different from northern American cities like Chicago, Detroit, and New York.
The government in Canada is a lot more liberal than in the States, which means taxes are higher, but there's also A LOT more benefits for the people than if you lived in the States. The free Healthcare is just the tip of the iceberg. For example, every employer here is required to provide "Vacation Pay" to cover a mandatory 2 weeks paid vacation each year for each employee. That might be nothing compared to certain European countries that enjoy 1 month vacation (so I've heard) but in the States, there is no such requirements for employers and most people never enjoy a paid vacation unless they have a really good job and its part of their employer's bonus/incentive. If you're planning on going to school, Canada's the way to go. School's a lot more affordable and easier to finance here.
There's also a lot less crime here. When I moved here in 2008, the murder rate for Canada as a whole (a country of about 30 million people) was 611 murders. In Chicago alone (a city of about 8 million people) the murder rate for that year was 513 murders.
The U.S. as a whole is a lot more diverse, but Canadians in general are a lot more cosmopolitan, open-minded and tolerant in my opinion.

Canada by far.

The only thing that's drastically more expensive here is gas. Our lost of living isn't near as bad as ppl may think.

You basically get slaps on the wrist for criminal charges.

The list goes on and on and on seriosuly.

Nah bro. Almost everything you buy in the stores are more expensive here. Ontario's sales tax alone is damn near 15%. When I lived in Illinois, shit was 8 or 9% and the highest in the nation was California which was like 12%.

I suppose your right. Maybe it just seems like thar cause we are so used to it. The only thing that I complain about on a weekly basis is gas and smokes.

I feel majority of things here are honestly a fair price.

Think about all the perks our country has over America. Its phenomenal when you compare the stats side by side. I'm not sure what minimum wage is in the states but I do know its much lower than ours.

Canada....eh!

They get paid less which means their cost of living is lower, we get paid more which means our cost of living is higher..........In a way they both balance out.
