no they dont, ive been very sarcastic about everything I have typed so far. But I will say one thing in earnest, thats just not true. Its clear I live in buffalo, and I have many friends in canada, they pay a lot more in taxes than i do.

Depends on the province. Im assuming you live near Quebec and Ontario.

Regardless it's a beautiful place. I've gone cross country skiing around the lake a few times.

Americans pay a lot of taxes on other things as well it just not considered income tax. For instance winning money in the states is taxed almost 50%. That's just an example,

Garth knows about as much about hockey as an Ethiopian.

He thinks the term "bar down" means hitting the regular post and going in.

Based on what?

We beat Finland. Finland beat Russia. The US needed a technicality to get to OT vs Russia and then 9 shoot out rounds to win.

So Ipso facto...Canada > USA

I dont win money. Not to mention i just did my taxes, and I got nearly 50% of the taxes i paid this year back, so in essence I had about a 20% income tax this year.

The actual goal post, not the crossbar.

I believe the US hasn't cracked the top 30 in math scores and CAN is freaking out about dropping out of the top 10.

Not trying to be nitpicky here, but come on buddy. Let's be real when it comes to education in NA

So many like to live in the past and forget the present. Our boy Zemgus today got the Canucks all fired up today.. Imagine what happens when they have Backes and Callahan in their faces.. Oh, this embarrassment of a game Friday will be funnier when Canadians come up with the excuses. I am anticipating it .
