Well, a lot of Canadians like to sit up here and look down on the U.S. government for its issues, but this whole BC Hospital Workers issue proves that we, too, have governments that are borderline Draconian. The provincial government illegally breaks a contract with hospital workers (apparently because they felt like it), tells said hospital workers that staff will be cut, and rolls back pay 15% across the board. Now they're taking the union to court for striking (which they made essentially illegal a while back). Campbell, get the hell out of office, you arrogant, evil despot.

fuck you amreicans. were not america jr and if we were youd see us using the imperial measurement system still, and fighting wars to get contol of oil. yeah. cuz were stupid like that. we peace keep + help other countries. the stupid ameriacan gov't just uses theirs for power. just cuz our BC hospitals did something stupid, doesnt mean you have to go saying your better. at least or countries leader isnt a useless-moronic tool.

^^sucks, but lmao! and JD, seriously. its been harsh up till now, so why would you begin to be nice to me anyway? I dont care if canada is here or not. dont take it so fucking serious. you should know by now that everything that i have said on here has been in humor. and it was funny. And at least I am capable of looking at my flaws and my countries flaws and am still able to laugh at them. everyone has something wrong with them. youre never going to get around that, so stop trying.

The reason they cut pay was because hospital janitors were making more money than people who were g\doing everyones wages in human resources. There was no way it could continue, so they had to cut pay. The strike ended on monday, and just like canada nothing bad really happened at all.

i love it when canadiens come on singing about how very clean their country is... these people have obviously never been to surry, quesnel, P.G. or any of those other dusgusting pulp mill towns. the dang residue spewing from those smoke stacks make the trees around Prince George yellow. ever been to the frazier valley on a summer day? the smog just rolls up from vancouver till the sky looks like LA. add that to the predominate smell of cow, and you get the picture. the other greatest thing to tell a canadien is that california has taller trees, and bigger mountians. (obviously canada has beautiful clean places, but where its inhabited by humans, in my experience, its no better than the states...) you never see cars vomiting the kind of emissions that you see in canada here in california. the alleged 'clenliness' has nothing to do with the fact that its north of the 49th, but everything to do with the population disparity.

that was just in response to the guy up a few posts who was reveling in the clenliness of canada... and van is a nice city... because any airflow off the ocean pushes any pollution up to abbotsford. same reason that fairfield and hurcules suffer from dirty air more than san francisco or oakland do. personally i love b.c. i could easily live in vic. i love that city. and van is okay... at least untill you get over towards burnaby...

isnt vancouver and pretty much the rest of BC full of coke addicts? That has nothing to do with the environment or probably anything to do with this thread but i want to know if it's true. I live in Montreal and thats what i hear all the time, people here are too poor so you get a bunch of people on speed instead

Yale grad = Rich kid who spent his time drinking and not studying. Overall, a mediocre student and not a terribly intelligent individual. Again, I lament Gore, who is actually incredibly bright.

One of my friends showed me an academic standards survey they did a year ago that put UBC not too far behind yale (30th in the world), I forget where Yale was, somewhere in the teens. But since I plan on going to Oxford for law school and graduating from that, I'll let you know when I'm done :)
Oxford was #3.

By the way, I realize UBC being 30th in the world and 2nd in Canada is patently absurd. They apparently think that by making the work harder and the grades lower they'll be recognized as an ivy league school or something. Realistically, it's just a good U, not on par with the others surrounding it... I mean for Chrissakes, it placed higher than Stanford. What's that about?

If you live in BC, you need to know only 2 things. 1, where you go for undergrad doesn't matter, and 2, UBC is a high standards university if you don't mind working and still probably getting low marks.

its only true because the base levels of the canadien rockies are at close to sea level. mt whitney has a peak elevation of over 15k. i think the highest peak in canada is a 14er. but the base of whitney is probably at like 6 or 7 thousand to begin with. thats how it works out.

ok lets just say this, the US is way more fucke dup then Canada is. The US has just paved its way to GET terrorized for the next 50 years. The NDP has fucked western Canada over, and now the Liberals are trygin to make some cleanups we have so many stupid ass union members that they can't do shit. Though the liberals are doing some stupid ass stuff as well. When those hospital workers where stricking ( the janitors and cafitira people) i wanted to get a sign out that said fuck CUPE, becasue it's bullshit. The cuts need to come from somewhere, and they are getting paid soo much to do next to shit. they also have job security with is a bunch of crap. i hate unions! I work as a labourer and it sucks, there is no serurity of benifits. the point of my story, even though it doens't sound liek it, is that the US is still way more screwed up. They ahve a crazy ass media that brain washes you that your neighbor is gonna kill you, and that you should be afraid of every possible thing around you. yes Canada is getting to high on itself too.....so lets you knwo keep ourselves quite.... and juts keep on mubling to ourselves how much the us sucks...
