Allegedly we all have access to affordable healthcare.
We don't have Trump.

We the North rest our case.

Yeah but 90 percent of your population live close to the US border which means you must like us a lot

Right, it's got nothing to do with terrain or weather, or anything like that ...

I think it's warmer because of all the hot air the US emits.

Dumpster fires do give off a lot of heat.

Well the general excuse that Canadians give is that much of the country further north is hostile to human environment but I know better. They live close to the border because they really do love us, like our cheap gas and there are more Walmarts and Starbucks on our side

Also, despite the shit it's been catching on here of late, Tim Hortons has much better coffee than Starbucks. Starbucks has better pastries, though.

So does Seattle's Best even though it's owned by Starbucks. You can buy S.B in stores in my area but the S.B coffee shops are all located around where else ? the Seattle area.

I suppose if it wasn't better, it'd be false advertising to call it 'Seattle's Best'

Anytime you're in Seattle try it. Not bad at all. Check out Pike Place market where vendors throw fish at each other

Here is a list of cars that will increase in price when the wall goes up.

Which Cars Are Made In Mexico? » AutoGuide.com News

I thought this one was interesting.

BMW makes a few cars in Mexico, but only one specific model is brought to the US and that’s the 5 Series Security, the automaker’s own armored vehicle. It’s made in Toluca, Mexico.
