Canada - The World's Best Country to Live in
Vancouver is Third in World in Annual Quality of Life Survey
Vancouver ranked third overall in the 2005 annual "Quality of Life Survey", published by Mercer Human Resource Consulting. This year's score matches Vancouver's previous score in the 2004 Quality of Life survey.
Geneva and Zurich, Switzerland were tied for first place with scores of 106.5. Vancouver's score was 106, which tied it with Vienna, Austria. Other Canadian cities, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal , and Calgary took 14th, 20th, 22nd and 25th place, respectively.
All five Canadian cities in the survey were praised for their relatively high levels of "personal safety and security" and for being in a politically stable country, according to a report from CBC News (see below). [/align][ul][*][align=center]Vancouver 3rd in world in quality of life survey

Our government funded health care system is very nice considering we don't have to get approval from an HMO for medical procedures. And don't have enormous hospital bills to pay every time. But it is starting to fall apart. With the population growing and needing health care more, the demand is overwhelming the system. We are now having huge waiting periods for necessary procedures. Among other problems.

Do not be deceived sir - the current crop of Republicans are no different than the Demorats, except for their timetable. The lunatic Bush, for example,has spent more of our money on social programs than Klintoon did in his entire eight years. Congress holds the national purse strings, of course, but the president holds a very valuable tool - the veto. As two-time Libertarian presidential candidate Harry Browne once observed, pens are cheap.
I was a lifelong Republican until 1996, when for me the "lightbulb"finally illuminated. Since that time, I have been a card-carrying, dues-paying Libertarian.
The country, as we have known it, is probably finished. However, I believe there is one final ray of hope in the form of Ron Paul. Liberals, Conservatives, Greenies, Demorats and Republicans are all joining the Ron Paul "revolution" in ever-increasing numbers, and I suggest that every American citizenhere consider doing the same - it's the Boston Tea Partyof our time, my friends. We're not fighting against the British Crown this time, but rather against the Globalists andNew World Order types who are Hell-bent on destroying the United States as we know it, andreplacing it with the "North American Union".
The support for Dr. Paul is going to have to overwhelming; otherwise, the powers-that-be are going to install Mrs. Klintoon into the White House for eight years. Following her reign, it's going to be Jeb Bush's turn - probably for another eight years. That's another 16-years of Klintoon/Bush and their handlers. If there's anyone here who believes that the United States Constitution can survive this, well, I feel sorry for you.
Couldall the people who believe as I do be wrong? Of course. Time will tell - as it always does.

Super awesome discussion, Oh did I say that already?
I hope there are thousands of dicussions going on like this all over the net.
The current democratic leadership that cannot convince me that most of America, wants or needs to be taxed.
Taxes are the reason we revolted against King George and now they want to take us back 250 years.

The Democratic party left me I didn't leave it....and Mr. Paul who is a Weak Libertarian in disguise at best is a woosie with no answer to the Radical Islamic threat.
And no, we didn't start it.
The koran teaches Islam to pretend to follow until they have an opportunity todecapitate the enemey.
They would kill you, your mother, your brothers, your sisters, Jane Fonda, Sean Penn, Hugo Chavez, Karl Marx, Al Gore, Rosie O'Donnell, Barbara Streisand, Robert Redford....and you hopefully get my drift, if need so to get their religion to all corners of the world.
Unfortunately the unpopular decision, as history will show, will prove that Bush was correctly proactive in his approach to this threat.
God bless all the great American, British, and other International Heroes who gave everything in pursuit of this goal.

Canada is actually slowly moving toward the US way of doing things. A lot of things that used to be government runned or government owned, have been privatized.
