Here are some of the more interesting points:

We work shorter hours
We drink more often
We live longer
We have more sex

Not too shabby eh!

I like this line:

Even in crime we come out ahead: we're just as prone to break the law, but when we do it, we don't get shot. Most of the time, we don't even go to jail.

Sounds to me like your crime rates are the same, yet your criminals end up right back on the street. Canada sounds like a great place to live... if you're a criminal.

Besides, y'all talk funny

The points you listed are good....but I do not like how much you pay in taxes. Of course the US is not that far behind you.

We work shorter hours - Well you can't work when you are that drunk!
We drink more often - See number one
We live longer - It's cold up there!! It's just physics
We have more sex - Most of which is paid for, it's too expensive in the states.

Seriously not too shabby at all. I love Quebec and have been going once a year for the past four. Canada will still always be Americas hat though

Or as my boss says "Canada is like a loft over a really good party".

If he goes to jail, at least he'll have more sex.

Canada is awesome! I think we should start sending you all of our illegal immigrants.
