I think you might be missing some parts of the Canadian story that make it seem more idyllic to you based on your situation. I am not disagreeing with anything you are staying about the US BUT Canada is not necessarily some liberal forward thinking Utopia for all, there are a lot of people who fall through (or get crushed by) the cracks, mainly the first nations people. Their story and struggle in Canada is brutal.
- sysbin 7y agoMy situation isn't happy. I would bet money you've never been denied healthcare because of religious ideology or suffered conversion therapy and from reading your response. I'm visually transgender because of the abuse experienced in the USA. I find out after moving to Canada with a degree, that Starbucks will cover all surgeries a transgender person needs and only for USA employees. That's awesome but after living in the USA, I would still stick it out here in Canada and even if I end up committing suicide in the following months. Sure, the first nations people have had awful experiences and it's comparable to African Americans in the USA. The thing is that the first nations people still can get the resources and benefits here in Canada that I listed; unlike what's in the USA.
