Honestly, on the contrary, the press here is so free that I don't understand the propaganda he/she is talking about? Things like the Iraq war?
Go to other countries and their press/media is really controlled by the government. In many Latin American countries, Asia, and even parts of Europe you don't even have as much freedom.
The problem with America is there are just a lot of dumba**es that have dumba** followers. They are the types that could easily be brainwashed anywhere.
Without America, Canada's economy is nothing, also you make absolutely no sense, I think you worded your sentence wrong.
Considering Canada is also the largest trading partner of the United States, and the country with which it has the largest economic relationship (and also the largest trade relationship on Earth), America's economy is also extremely dependent on Canada, so easy with the rhetoric. America now also gets the majority of its oil from Canada, so it's really a lot less one-sided than you might think.

Then there's the touchy subject of NAFTA here in the States. The Canadians and Mexicans seem to have been warmly receptive of it, some of us Americans on the other hand...

Canada needs the US way more than the other way around imo. Well, it doesn't necessarily need the US...
Quite the radicalism here. You're anti-American aren't you? Do you wish us harm and hateful/insidious spite? What say you? Is it jealousy/envy? blood-boiled rage? Well? Which is it you anit-American tool?
I quite like the average American citizen. What I don't like is the way the country has completely blown it's chance to really be that "Shining city on a hill" since the end of WW2. At one time it really looked like the USA could really lead the nations into a new and more just civilization. But NO you haven't because of the folly of taking up the mantle of the ex colonial powers and instead of progressing have regressed into the worst sort of Imperial corpocracy. American freedoms are being attacked at all points, the gulf between the haves and have nots is growing bigger and bigger. The country is spiralling down as all empires have and NOTHING is being done to stop that. The rulers of the country so obviously don't give a rats azz about the people, are owned lock stock and barrel by special interests and there they uselessly sit while the country burns down around their heads.
Of course I don't wish any person harm and in fact I wish them health, wealth and prosperity. It`s the people who have gotten ahold of the country I despise. Billionaires who begrudge the working man a good wage. Bankers who collapse the world`s economy and instead of going to jail get paid off with hundreds of billions of taxpayers dollars just to gear up to repeat the same thing again. How many homes were illegally taken from the folks who lived in them. Is that the USA you are proud of.
Truth about anything is as hard to find in the USA as a needle in a haystack. On one drive from Miami to Seattle I read an entire American high school history textbook. There was not one single fact about the USA in that book that was correct. Now that is propaganda designed to teach the kids of the nation a completely false narrative about everything American. Have you not heard that all those wars you are constantly fighting all over the globe are in the cause of "Freedom". What a freakin lie that one is. Even the feeble minded should be able to see through that one.
Actually I admire the people of the USA very much. They have achieved so many great things despite the awful and horrible governance they must contend against.
That pledge you force down the throats of the children of the nation is the height of propaganda. There is not a single clause in it that contains even a kernel of truth. It reminds my in-laws who attended school in Germany under the Nazis very much of the third Reich.
Well.. I hate to say it, but you actually sound very resentful and envious of the United States in your posts here (let alone biased).
Unfortunately, I've met too many Canadians in real life who were the same way. I do like Canada though and always enjoy my visits to that country in spite of some of the people who make me roll my eyes.
The only reason Canada is a safe place to live is because it uses the United States as a cushion from danger.
If Canada were disconnected from the continent nobody would care about it.
Why I feel you are being harsh, you have a point. Canada is like Sweden and Norway, nice countries, countries people know about, but they are countries that most of the world really don't care about.

A lot of people feel the same way about New Mexico, actually.
