I'm an American and I think this guy is right and hilarious. I was happy to hear Harper got re-elected as PM.
As for Canadians looking down on America's fiscal irresponsibilities...just remember, you guys had Trudeau...Just think of Obama as Trudeau who came 40 years too late, when a lot of nations are turning away from Socialism because it doesn't work.
I can't wait till I get to visit Canada again; great country, with equally great people!!!
WEll, i agree with you on one thing. RM is right and hillarious.
Obama is a huge failure. Im sure his heart is in the right place but the guy has zero backbone. He caters to the republicans every whim which was not why the people elected him.
If you look at some of the best places in the world to live you will see that they are socialist countries. Which nations do you speak of that are turning away from socialism? Please enlighten me.
@MrShnigglepuff Okay, if Obama caters to the Republicans so much...then explain why the Republicans have so much dislike and distrust for them and also answer why Obama hasn't been for the Paul Ryan plan or has called for spending cuts w/o tax increases?
So China, Cuba, Venezuela, and Vietnam are the "best" countries to live in? Excuse me, but since when has there ever been a consensus on which country is the "best" to live in and who the hell makes the claim?
No this is the little jag-off that shoved our elderly neighbor out of his way so he could access the stairwell when we had a fire alarm at 2:am last year..we were planning to give him a smack down for a few minutes on her behalf...hey, he gets his chance..turns out he just moved into our building last sunday, of all things? See ya ricky! home of the brave...but you wouldnt know what that means would ja?
The Americam way: elect a crazy Republican. Everything goes down the crapper. Elect a spineless Democrat. Nothing gets better. Elect another Republican. Things get even worse. You see why Canada has a better quality of life and less debt than you?
hahahaa. If canada is such a non-threat to you all, why have you found it so necissary to badmouth any canadian that speaks against the united states in the comments. We can say what we want.
@supastah2345 lol, were finally on to them...Maby it is since we can't have our own oil in Ontario because bad boy Brian Mulrooney allowed them to take it...Here we are giving them our oil and going and getting ours from Libya...It is a good thing we have a sense of humour!
One more thing before I go. Rick Mercer's a really funny dude to boot and he isn't afraid to say the things that a lot of people probably have on their minds but are too afraid to say them. God bless him and everyone else like him. May peace increase amongst the world!
I'm an American who has visited Canada and thinks that both the United States of America and Canada are both equally fantastic and unique countries in their own rights and love them both and know the root histories of both, but I'm no historian by any means whatsoever...but I do know this much...we are both offspring of the United Kingdom. Let's not forget that we're practically siblings for crying out loud! God bless Canada and the United States of America (and the rest of the world.) :-)
It still does not change my point. Not every American is crazy about Canada. The population of Canada is only 34,339,000. Compare that to the US population: 311,982,000. The Canadian population is only about 11% of the US population. And yet, it has an extremely large federal government.
Americans are already fed up with overpaid American government officials, trust me, we are not interested in feeding more people.
I still remember CTV promoting the Idea of merging , Makes you wonder who they were working for . I know Global TV was owned by Goldman Sacks , All I can say is thank god we have a public broadcaster long live CBC
Canada keeps acting like it has a better economy that ours. Lol what a lie. Not only do we make more money per capita but we have a higher growth rate. Countries with HUGE economies like ours(largest in the world) aren't supposed to have higher growth rates than smaller economies. Yet we have a higher growth rate.
Also, why is it that so many canadians come down here to find work? Hmm? Ive never heard of an American going to canada for work.
ahhh and it comes to our debt....well if you knew ANYTHING about economics, you would know that it doesn't matter what your overall debt is, it matters what your PERCENT of debt to GDP is. And in that category, the USA has a below world average % of debt. OWNED
We're on the verge of a complete economic meltdown? Well then WHY is our GDP growing 8x faster than canada's? Why is it that we have less public debt than canada? Why is it that canada spent more on a bank bailout(per capita) than the U.S. did?
Bet you don't hear all that on your ridiculous canadian news...
@andrewm153351 No we hear the opposite but we don't have anything to argue about we already know your government is the biggest rip off artist that ever existed and ours eats out of their hands. We know corporate America owns us and it owns your country. Go and look on your own laws. After the depression you have your America under the constitution and your America Inc and America Inc doesn't give a hoot about your country either. They own you and us so why you slave argue with our slaves,lol!
@andrewm153351 Our banks didn't need a bail out ..jack ass ... not really, the majority of our spending was to prevent our economy from falling as much as yours. Like it or not ..we are connected as countries even more so than most other world economies. Our banks are solid and didn't over invest in your housing bubble. Only one bank even really touched them and then only for a taste, relatively speaking. Take a macro econ course and learn something.
@andrewm153351 bet you get your fax from fox. first of all we have about 1 hundreth of the debt that you have, our dollar has remained steady over the past 7 years even growing while the american dollar has plummeted. Third, there were no bail outs, however this is a credit line now opened to banks that they can use, but there is a steep interest (at least compared to your banks)
Canada doesn't even have CLOSE to 1/100th the debt of the USA. Its closer to 1/10 AND the USA has 10x the economy of canada.
No, there wasn't a SPECIFIC canadian bank bailout, but the government DID spend BILLIONS on mortgages for the banks in percents WAY higher than the u.s.
We devalue our dollar on PURPOSE you idiot. And the U.S. dollar doesn't NEED to have a high value like other countries.
The US economy is growing faster than the canadian economy. AND we're already a gazillion times richer
The USA has three times more in debt per capita. So that's about a thirty-fold higher debt.
There was no Canadian bank bailout. In fact, Canadian banks continue to make money hand over fist. Why? Because Canada has regulations against giving out patently stupid loans.
Bailouts in Canada mainly went to the manufacturing industry primarily because the Americans gave huge auto bailouts so we also had to remain competitive.
@andrewm153351 Show me a Canadian news report or something of the like, not the CIAs half assed attempt. We're about 150 billion in debt, according to the opposition, not the GOVERNMENT.
ahhh...excuses excuses...You stupidly ask for proof and i not only send you proof, but proof FROM CANADA, and then all you can say is that its a slander campaign? Really? Statisticscanada is a propaganda machine?
Just admit that i owned you. We all make mistakes.
@andrewm153351@andrewm153351 Also, that site is in Canadian millions. The CIA link is broken. America is slowly shifting out of the world superpower stage. Accept it. Every nation falls in time.
@andrewm153351 It says 10 billion total debt. Canada is running a DEFICIT of 50 billion. Our dollar is strong, and the fact that we came out as the ONLY nation in the world with not a single bank falling is a true sign of the sheer strength of the cCanadian economy.
And i also sent you FOUR other sources, not just the wordpress blog. You are one complete idiot for asking proof from a mainstream news organization like CBC. If ANYONE'S going to be biased and lie, it would be a mainstream news organization.
Remember, i sent you FOUR OTHER SOURCES.
Dude, just admit you got owned on every single subject....You're only going to make it worse for yourself....
@andrewm153351 Yeah, four sources and all of them were blogs. BLOGS! I want to see something that is a major news network, not an anti-Canadian ranting about how bad our economy is. And, really, the Green Party? TYeah, sure, they have TONS of power in Canadian politics. Learn a bit about our system before you slam it.
The seekingalpha one was written by a known contributor to the site, not just a random person. AND the other two weren't even American. And even if they WERE blogs, that doesn't make anything they said wrong. Can you disprove any of the information given? Thought so.
And whoever said the greenparty needed "power" to be right? Your logic is completely ridiculous.
And all you can do is say that all of these sources are wrong?
I think we BOTH know who's owning who in this argument....
@andrewm153351 Yes, I can. The last government spending release which was backed by the parties. Also, the Greens are not a proper political party. They made that to convince the voters to stop voting Conservative. Blogs are blogs, they provided a story with no evidence to back their point up. I'm tired of feeding the trolls, get someone else to provide your fodder.
@andrewm153351 you've never heard of Americans going to canada for work because you just sit on your couch and watch family guy all the time. If you got off your ass and quit posting bullshit comments on YouTube, you'd get an education and realize that you're just another uneducated american prick. You barely even know canada is here, so fuck off and eat more Big Macs, bitch. Nuff said.
@andrewm153351 Your country is on the verge of a complete economic melt down. You will be eating rice for every meal for years to come..and that doesn`t include soy sause because at $20 a bottle it will be too expensive for the avergae American.
@000Winter000 I would take back those words if they melt down the whole western world and especially Canada is going with them corporate America owns our country....
Average per capita income canada- $39,000 America-$47,000 Latest economic growth rate- canada- 0.5% America-2.5% The American dollar controls 68% of the world's banks. The canadian dollar doesn't even control 0.1% Obviously our dollar is stronger. Yes, the dollar has lost value over time, but thats how all strong currencies that control world trade become. And believe it or not, the u.s. produces more oil, corn, coal, and many other things than canada.
Why does every video on a Canadian topic always have Americans spouting anti-Canadian rhetoric? Are Americans really so afraid of Canada that they need to come on YouTube and troll Canadian videos?
Why would you even ask such a stupid question? The obvious answer is that in EVERY video about America, canada always talks shit(most of the time not knowing the real facts)
Just watch the video above to get my point.
I still can't believe you would ask such a stupid question right after watching this video.
@andrewm153351 It's no surprise to me that an American would make such a stupid statement. You assume that we Canadians know as much about your country as much as you Americans know about Canada - nothing. Here's the truth: Canadians know about as much as you do, about your country, thanks to the pervasive American media, in Canada. This disparity is really quite pathetic and yes I know you will dismiss what I said and call Canada meaningless or something like that.
@sweiland75 Haha quite the opposite, at least for me. I'm from North Carolina and I get a kick out of satire that roasts my corrupt politicians into submission :)
@sweiland75 Canadian don't have a scene of humor. remember when comedians made jokes on fox? you whole country cried. how about when south park made the blame Canada video? you guys cried again. Canadians are crybabies with an inferiority complex
@mrfwest You Americans are hypocrites. You can make all the jokes about us and it's cool. Anyone else makes a joke about your country and you want to invade their country!
@sweiland75 what? no. look at this video, any video. you'll never see Americans crying over jokes. then go look at " fox on red eye " and look at all the crying Canadians. at the most you'll see Americans insulting Canada for the fun of it. we don't take Canada seriously, much less... your jokes
@mrfwest "at the most you'll see Americans insulting Canada for the fun of it. we don't take Canada seriously, much less... your jokes" Still don't see the problem?
@mrfwest I don't know what your question was but there is a funny bit Jimmy Kimmel did about Canada and the Vancouver riot if you'd like to check it out: watch?v=cpoeMccQ6CM
I'm a Canadian and I found it funny. In fact it's so good that I want to dedicate that "new tourism ad" to you.
@MsColdCanada glad to see that someone understand the concept of a joke.
here the question... he replied by repeating my statement === at the most you'll see Americans insulting Canada for the fun of it. we don't take Canada seriously, much less... your jokes"
Still don't see the problem? so i asked what the problem with my statement? i want to prove that the only reason mad is because he feel inferior
Ouch! A $21 trillion unfunded pension liability. The US doesn't even have that kind of money. They might as well ask the federal reserve to print more money in which its good at doing. Wait! This is the only solution at their disposal
@winterhawkwa That is so true, most Americans are no longer capable of critical thinking, unless of course it's about anything that's on TV. They are stealing your country right out from under you, and most have no idea it's going on. I'm not saying Canada is any better, we only have the illusion of choice also. The people that gain power, and they ones backed by Corporate Elite. Either Conservative, Liberal, Democrate or Republican, same difference.
@Anghellik9 The ultimate agenda is for an even smaller amount of powerful people to have control over global currency. Not governments, but International Banksters. I would urge you to watch some documentaries on this subject. It is not for the global good, to be sure, it is for ultimate power. Some good docs are Zeitgiest, also connected are The Obama Deception, and many of the 911 truth docs. Gives you the bigger picture. Check out CHEMTRAILS also and HAARP. Peace to you...
@1JesusIsourLord Don't worry he likes to make Canadians look stupid too, everyone is fair game, Canada just has a lot of dealings with the U.S. on most issues so they end up in the news quite a bit. You'll see he has slammed both the Liberals and the Conservatives in Canada on many occasions
Ask an American what he thinks about Canada and he will say, "I don't"... That basically sums it up. Sorry fellas, but you're largely irrelevant. Deal with it.
@winterhawkwa well then if you simply dont give two shits about canada what are you doing commenting on this video? Do us canucks a favour and go fuck yourself.
@1JesusIsourLord seeing as americans like you constantly post several, borderline-obsessive comments ( 5 in your case) about how it is the canadians that are insecure I actually do feel like what I had to say was fairly well placed.
@crazyliberalguy LMAO! Looks like you know what borderline-obsessive means, very well. BTW I am not American, I was just stating the obvious. I am from Brazil. I live in USA for 3 years now. I've lived in several parts of Canada too. I do admit Canada is a beautiful country but giving it 2 more years and it will be the same as USA. There are people in Canada that say are more tolerable with other races and cultures but there are many people that complain about discrimination and racism.
@crazyliberalguy Please don't reply saying stuff like, racism is lower in Canada than the USA because a little versus a lot, doesn't make Canada better. Before I went to canada, I had heard a lot of good things from friends and family living there, it made me want to live there too. So when I lived there, I experienced more discrimination, people looking down on me, than I have in the USA, don't get me wrong, maybe I haven't lived here long enough, but so far so good. God bless!
@ephneh HAHAHA!!! IT is called, the NWO! Where Mexico, the USA, and Canada are going to join as one country. So I don't know why people are getting so worked up about currency.
@1JesusIsourLord I'm sorry what do you mean non Canadians? What exactly is a non Canadian, because if you hold are a Canadian citizen then you are Canadian... last time I check we didn't have a problem with illegal immigration... your country does
@winterhawkwa Typical american answer... "we are the world so if we don't care no one does"... cept for one flaw in your logic... no one gives a fuck about your thoughts... you've voted in bush twice and another bs president in obama.... the only thing people worry about in the states is you guys are actually dumb enough to use your nukes...
seriously... america used to be a great place... but you're just a joke now :/
I don't think Americans are the only ones who aren't able to answer questions about Canada. I think pretty much the entire planet couldn't care less about your country. The interest in learning about Canada just isn't there. You know what I'm saying?
OK, so there are some real dimwits down in the USA, but hey, we have some real morons up here too. I also think it would've been great if the blue states would have seceded back in 2004. I love the American northeast and northwest! The people are awesome! Please, Canada, let's do what we can to get the blue states to consider secession. There is just so much beautiful country to be lost to those crooked politicians in Washington DC. Save the North!
theres going to be a crash this year chances are the assholes in government wont even have to force us to accept the amero cause we will all be crying out for them to help us. its a sad fact
Thank god ( and voters) for minority governments. Canada would have lost itself in the amero and in the Security and Prosperity Partnership if Harper had a solid majority.
LOL USA is looking for a very rich country to pay for there debit and atm Canada is low on Unemployment and pays there middle class workers 3 times more now that is funny stuff right there .Give it another 6 Months and the USA will have to do something serious to save there country from Canada buying them out for 2 smokes and a box if craft dinner .
Something tells me the idiots who want to "harmonize," as Harper would say, our money, are imagining that all debts would disappear as they won't be in the new currency..... I can see that going well.
"I'm sorry China, but you see the problem is that we owe you that 2 Trillion in Dollars and, well, they don't make those anymore, so I guess you're out of luck, sorry."
salgadosroman - you've single-handedly confirmed every American stereotype in an 18-word comment. AND answered your own question. That alone is an impressive feat...
@NOS604 that was just a decoy so they could steal our natural resources and set us up for the some day when they would take our economy too. But please remember the American people didn't do this to us it is America Inc and they are now doing it to them. The average American has no idea that they are stealing our oil,lol!
You try to stop people from doing what they want to do, even after communist are gone. If countries want Muslim laws, socialism, protectionism etc let countries learn from their mistakes. American system is far too dysfunctional to tell other countries what to do!
Seriously, does America make anything that is competitive with any other conutry's product? Cars? Hahahaha! The only reason they still have a domestic car industry is the tarrifs and cost to ship cars over from Japan, and the Japanese could STILL sell for cheaper!
They do make some things competitively... like say computer chips.
However, go into a Canadian Tire and check out the origin on certain items such as hand tools, paint brushes, paint, etc... there's some things still made in N.A.
I recently bought a garden hose reel from CT made in the USA... good quality & good features for as little ($30) as the Chinese made... seek and ye shall find ;o)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
We will have a North American currency. Whether it will be called the Amero remains unknown. What I've hearing is that the States would be the ones who would have the monetary policy in this deal. Why should they dictate how money should be spent when they are the root cause of the global economic crisis?
there will never be a north american currency, Canadians won't stand for it. If anyone ever tried, there'd be a vote of no confidence and the GG would just dissolve parliament, we'd have an election, and the stupid bastard who came up with the idea would be banished to the political wilderness for the rest of their lives.
Canada will buy america for pennies on the dollar soon. America will become the eleventh province. Canada will call this province, "Fucked-itself-in-the-ass-a", eh.
I think all the "cool" states will join Canada, like New York and any states along the eastern seaboard and on the west coast, Oregon, California, Nevada and maybe Arizona. The rest of the lame states can't join.
@gundamWWW HAHAHA!!! IT is called, the NWO! Where Mexico, the USA, and Canada are going to join as one country. So I don't know why people are getting so worked up about currency.
@andrewm153351 haha, good joke, "Canada owned by Britain" thats hilarious... oh and at the "U.S. makes 14.2 trillion/year and Canada makes 1.3 trillion/year it would be very surprising to see anything different than that, seeing as the US is more than 10x larger pop. wise
@andrewm153351 Ok, there's another sign of uneducation. "Canada is owned by Britain". No. We just share the same leader. that would be like saying "New York State owns Pennsylvania. They have the same President!" Canada is a commonwealth member. Canada and Britain each have a queen. It just happens to be the same person.
I find it quite hilarious that a person with the name "grilledangus" is telling me to go eat more mcdonalds. ROFLMAO
Yes, canada, which is a sovereign state, is headed by a foreign official. To me, that means they own you. Also, being part of the commonwealth means that you are legally obliged to fight for britain, or any other country in the commonwealth in the case of attack. That means they own you.
@andrewm153351 yeah, and we own them too in YOUR logic. C'mon, dude. Don't be an arrogant prick on youtube. I don't hate americans. I actually think they're pretty cool. I have cousins in VA, but what I hate is when people from the US put down Canada and say really untrue things about it. Yes canada is obligated to fight for Britain, but Britain is also obligated to fight for Canada. Nobody owns eachother in the commonwealth. It's just an agreement between nations.
And i also find it quite funny how all of your favorite t.v. shows, movies, bands, etc are American. Fucking hilarious. And by the way, you certainly don't look 18. You could pass as a 12 year old.
@andrewm153351 I could pass off as a 12 year old? Yeah. A 6'3" guy with facial hair and a deep voice could totally pass as a 12 year old. And so what if my favourite shows are American? I never said I hate Americans, I just don't like the arrogant ones. And I wish we both could just quit bitching about eachother on youtube. Yeah Canada's economy isn't as powerful as USA's, and NO, Canada isn't owned by Britain, but who cares.
Come on. Let's put our differences aside, and stop hating.
Oh come on guys, everyone knows the most fun part of the roller coaster is on the way down, help us out!

Third, there were no bail outs, however this is a credit line now opened to banks that they can use, but there is a steep interest (at least compared to your banks)
Greginda11 10 months ago
Canada doesn't even have CLOSE to 1/100th the debt of the USA. Its closer to 1/10 AND the USA has 10x the economy of canada.
No, there wasn't a SPECIFIC canadian bank bailout, but the government DID spend BILLIONS on mortgages for the banks in percents WAY higher than the u.s.
We devalue our dollar on PURPOSE you idiot. And the U.S. dollar doesn't NEED to have a high value like other countries.
The US economy is growing faster than the canadian economy. AND we're already a gazillion times richer

The USA has three times more in debt per capita. So that's about a thirty-fold higher debt.
There was no Canadian bank bailout. In fact, Canadian banks continue to make money hand over fist. Why? Because Canada has regulations against giving out patently stupid loans.
Bailouts in Canada mainly went to the manufacturing industry primarily because the Americans gave huge auto bailouts so we also had to remain competitive.

The u.s. external debt is around $14 trillion/ aka $46,000 per capita. Canada's external debt is around $1 trillion/ aka 24,000 per capita.
And by the way, your url says that canada only has $560 billion in debt, which is clearly not true.

Look at "Total, all types of instruments"
It says "$1,098,321"

@andrewm153351 I could pass off as a 12 year old? Yeah. A 6'3" guy with facial hair and a deep voice could totally pass as a 12 year old. And so what if my favourite shows are American? I never said I hate Americans, I just don't like the arrogant ones. And I wish we both could just quit bitching about eachother on youtube. Yeah Canada's economy isn't as powerful as USA's, and NO, Canada isn't owned by Britain, but who cares.
Come on. Let's put our differences aside, and stop hating.

Well actually there are more unions than that there is:
-European Union
-Afican Union
-South American Union
-Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (Asian Union)
-Cantral Asian Union
-Arabic league
-Central American integration commite (i think it is called)
And to finish of there is also somekind of secular body in the pacific including Australia and New Zealand.
Still i refuse to believe in an NWO but i respect your view.
