After a great thread of back and forth Yank/Canuck scrapping and bashing in the Mulroney thread, I'd like to know what you like about America.

Me?

If this thread was "What do you dislike about the USA" I'll bet you'd get a lot more responses. After pondering the idea for a few minutes I could not think of one aspect of the USA in a positive manner that I couldn't do without.

I don't mean any disrespect to Americans, but your country sucks:Þ

Obviously a lot of Canadians like the economic opportunities in the US, because they've moved down there to get a job.
