In 1999, my wife and I drove across canada (basically coast to coast) for
several weeks and we were impressed with several things.

first, they are raising more "normal" responsible children than this country
does. it was always a pleasure to see how they ran businesses and were quite
civil in public.

second, Canadians are nicer than americans, and I grew up in NYC !

Everyone is nicer that those in NYC, except maybe for the French.
