canada vs. america

I'm a canadian living on the beautiful west coast province of British Columbia. I've travelled the world and been to many parts of the U.S.A. In comparison, I honestly think that there is no comparison. With the canadian dollar at 1.02 U.S. , there will be more reason for canadians to travel south of the border. I have the feeling that canadians are not as welcome as they were 10 years ago. There is a growing sense of mistrust between the two countries. Being so close geographically, you would think that we would be closer friends, instead of talking behind each others backs. How many stereotypes are said of Canada, that are not true? Dogsleds, igloos, snow in July, eh? Canadian people are very peaceful, sharing, and proud. We don't base our lifestyle around our military, and find other ways to solve our problems. We are allies and always will be, but is that only because we are attached? I wonder what life would be like if our countries were on opposite sides of the planet. With all of our natural resources, it's actually a scary thought!!
