Here's a link to a site that wants Canada and the USA to unite,some great facts comparing us.

You better grab one of those jobs for yourself !!
Sorry, but I would never go for that.
The US had their own country, and resources and ran it into debt (200K per person).
Nope, Canada will be it's own worldpower within the next 50-100 years.
If long term unemployment and laziness make a worldpower then you guys are #1 already.
First of all, our unemployment numbers are less then yours, secondly our goverment unemployment fund holds over a billion in surplus, and thirdly, if you haven't heard, the recession has been over here for quite some time now. We already raised interest rates, and will be doing so, again, very shortly.
And btw, 99 weeks of collecting unemployment here is totally unheard of ! (Only in America) !
Nothing near 99 weeks like in the USA !
Anyways, my last day of employment, as I recall so well, was May31st, 2009.
and btw, the maximum is normally 26 weeks, but part of the stimulus, they upped it temporary.

This was the subject :
Now, you can either agree or disagree with me or Cach, which country has more longterm bennies (and is lazy).
You have the facts, so where is your input ?
And keep in mind our unemployment numbers are less then in the States, too !
First of all, our unemployment numbers are less then yours Would those numbers have to do with a lower population than us? I wonder what it is on a strictly percentage level., secondly our goverment unemployment fund holds over a billion in surplus If they all ride the govt pony as long as you they`ll need it., and thirdly, if you haven't heard, the recession has been over here for quite some time now. We already raised interest rates, and will be doing so, again, very shortly. Of course they will. They have to take more from the hard working folks to fill up your previously mentioned billion dollar fund.
And btw, 99 weeks of collecting unemployment here is totally unheard of ! But you plan on turning up the volume,right?(Only in America) !
Nothing near 99 weeks like in the USA ! Typical. Get called out on a subject and you try the misdirection game. Have you put in an application as a magician? That one might pay off.
Anyways, my last day of employment, as I recall so well, was May31st, 2009. 58 weeks and counting. Oops stepped on that land mine didn`t ya?
and btw, the maximum is normally 26 weeks, but part of the stimulus, they upped it temporary.
I paid my fair share and plus some, my share for schools, that I didn't use, my share for playgrounds I didn't use, my share as in the highest tax bracket (single with no kids), my share for other peoples kids to get healthcare, and so on.
Nevermind all the pregnant women that get 26 weeks Unemployment checks.
Btw, yes, by percentage.. 7.9% here. (still 2 percent higher then prior the recession).
