Get the Canadian Suit mug.The best place to live according to the UN. Although we try to say we are different from Americans....we are close to being the same. When most Canadians bas the US they are not bashing the people....they are bashing a man that does not have the brain capacity to run the most powerful country in the world. And yes i am talking about Bush.

Basically the oldest, most selective, richest Canadian universities - McGill University, University of Toronto and Queen's University.
There are others that get honourable mention, but these three are the top dogs, all within a few hours of each other, and all highly internationally ranked. All three have ties to the American Ivy League too, and were even founded before Canada had its own constitution.

Three dads talking about their kids' school acceptances:
1 "Hot damn, my son's going to Toronto - they publish more than Harvard!"
2 "Well hey, my boy's off to McGill - "The Harvard of the North" where they INVENTED football and hockey!"
3 "Oh yeah, my daughter's off at Queens - working with kids who transferred from Cornell!"
4 "Mmm... I wish my little girl could've gone to a Canadian Ivy League... she's going to Brock."
*Laughter*

Get the Canadian Tuxedo mug.Canadian Envy occurs when Canadians feel the urge to try and compare every part of their life to Americans, in an effort to make themselves feel better and more important to the world.
Canadian Dave: "You damn Americans with your world renowned universities, hospitals, and prominence! I wish the world cared if Canada existed, however, I will continue to put down America to make myself feel like the world might someday care aboot me!"
American Mike: "Dude, Canadian Dave, you have government run health care but we have better hospitals and better care! Besides, the world would crumble without America; and nobody would even know if Canada fell off the face of the Earth. Typical Canadian Envy. Hey European Joe, can you believe this Canadian bastard?"
European Joe: "What's Canada? Seems unimportant and irrelevant to the worlds existence and function."

Get the Canadian Envy mug.Border between the North American nations of Canada and the USA. Easily traversed if you are a Canadian or American citizen, less so if you are from any other country (including EU or Commonwealth nations).
Be prepared to pay $6 dollars to enter the United States from Canada (entering Canada is free). The fee CANNOT be paid by credit or debit card or with Canadian dollars, nor is there anywhere nearby from which American money can be withdrawn in most cases. Also, be prepared to fill out a ridiculous immigration card which asks you questions including "Were you in any way involved in the Nazi regime in Germany between the years 1939-1945" despite the fact your passport clearly states that you were born in the late 1980's.
Generally, expect to be treated with far more suspicion by the American border guards than the Canadians. If you are planning to stay in the USA longer than a few days, you may be required to provide proof that you have the money to fund your trip so they are satisfied you won't try to work in their country, since they seem convinced anywhere outside North American is some kind of God forsaken war torn hell hole.

When I was crossing the US-Canadian Border I had to pay $6 for the privilege of filling that stupid green piece of card they give you, then convince them that I didn't need to work in their country to send money home to feed my family since I'm from Britain, not Yemen.
