I see both sides, cozmins and ours. Cozmin is correct in some aspects about north america (ppl here ARE the commodity / product). I also know what its like all over Europe, some bits are cool and some are borring as fukk, it all depends where you are and your personality type.
Im not fond of his "Europe is superior" attitude because I know Eropeans, they arent monkeys but another animal all together (I'll spare name calling), many but not all.
Point is - its the same all over the world, but with its own twists.
I know Eropeans that spend 6 months in each contry due to their vocations, and I hear pros and cons of both places, no one place is better, its just different.
It could be said that Eropeans are all brainwashed into believing the things they do so that its easier to get them to pay into the transit systems there and the local corps instead of global ones. Its all the same, just shifted around, theres only so many ways you can devide playing cards.
On a personal note, even tho I dont agree with everything he says - I do like his "reports"
In addition:
how will Cozmin feel when "his" perfect places are "invaded" by immigrants from all over the world who want to live where he does cuz "its sooo awesome" and they turn it into every other place ?
how will north america look and be once everyone switches to non polluting transportation and the air/water clears up?
I LOVE it here and Immma staying, although I wish some ppl would get the fukk out.

And most of you are Europeans, who have left a land where civilization started, and now live in a land where civlization was 1000 years retarded. I remember in american patriotic songs something about spirit of the land ...

do you think that will ever happen? there is also the issue that in europe people can afford riding the bike ... distances are shorter, cities have a diff. architecture.

Coszmin,
you need to learn English and grammar first off.
i admit you have some good points. but these points all canadians know. you are stereotyping canadians like were americans. this is not even close to a true fact, right off the bat. have you ever been to the US? you seem to generalize a point you make by 1 occurrence.
first off they call canada a first world country for a reason. your cities and countries have been around for some of them thousands of years and have very rich history and have been built well before cars. its as simply as culture change. north america makes more economically then europe. ppl use public transit (well over 2 million in the city fo toronto alone) when the population of the GTA is about 5 million ppl. that's not counting the towns usage of there systems. ppl do what they can and what they can afford. same in europe, no change. you seem to be complaining about global warning. you have compared two pictures, one of a side street in Europe and a major hwy in north America. how can you compare the 2 period???? hwy s in Europe are as bad as Canadas are or worse in Europe simply because of the population difference and also with the poor lay outs of your cities. congession points etc etc. you cant compare 2 different cultures the way your doing it.
you again generalize Canada comparing it to europe. your comparing a continent to 1 country. a country 1 /10th the population. begin close to germany and other countries is just an ignorant comment. you need to do some research and use facts before you generalize 1 country and a continent of Europe. its like comparing germany to the Uk. its not a fair and accurate assumption. 2 totally different countries and cultures. we are not the US nor do we all watch football and American gladiators. many canadiana hate the US simply because of there arrogant and pompous. as i said please review your facts before you start bashing a country. obviously u had a bad experience or are bitter about something. or simple jealousy. who knows, maybe just ignorant.......u dont see canadians bashing other countries freely. also for the comment u stated about iraq, canada refused to get involved. just another FACT to lay out there....

if memory serves right you are the guy that came on here impersonating a cop and talking to canadian residents that need to vent their surroundings induced rage through street racing, so that would explain that particular comment from your part . I hope you can appreciate that after speaking Hungarian and Dutch for the entire year, and Romanian last year, and French and German intemitently when traveling through europe, it takes a bit more concentration for me to form proper english sentences, concentration that most of the time i don't invest when writing theese messages. I do not live in an english speaking country, percentage wise, people speak better english in the Nederlands, than in Canada. Sure you probably speak better than most but ALL of them speak better than all of Scarborough and Brampton, Vancouver and Newfoundland combined.
canadians and americans can be generalized from the most part. Sure you have the hicks and the smart types. But there are smart types in the US LOTS of them. And there SURE ARE many hicks in canada.
WESTERN europeans can also be generalized for the most part. That is not including England, Portugal, Romania or Russia ... ... If you look at the map of europe on the 2 euro coin you can see the map of europe that excludes most countries that aren't mostly "european" . Brittain is obviously at fault for most of the fuked culture going on down there on the other hemisphere, so of course it's out of the picture. Eastern europeans are too close to the Islamic countries, or the Russian countries. And portugal, greece and israel just belong in the continents they are closer too
So once again, the hicks and the smart types. Sure there are smart types in Greece and hicks in Germany ... oh wow ! ! ! ... but for the most part, the smart type concentration is just great in western europe, at the same time it's so strong, that the hicks have a harder time penetrating.
To give you an example, a turkish guy with a turkish restaurant, barely speaking dutch, that preety much had an appearance that stood against everything western, was complaining to me that people are ignorant here, and that he will move to Canada.
w000t BOAYYYYY !!! < -- not even gonna mention how GOOD it feels not to have to hear flavored that way on a daily fkin basis
You must visit europe some more, obviously, and then you'll have different opinions yourself. Personally I lived half my life here, half there, and that should also point clearly to why we have a difference of opinion here.
The picture from europe, is not a side street , but a main street in the center of amsterdam. That is the street that people commute to work on daily. The picture from north america, I believe is close to Sheppard and Younge ? so preety much RIGHT where people go to work, I have chosen the two PRECISELY for their similarities in usage.
Also you are right , canada is one country . One retardedly big country . with 29 milion ppl, and a stupid and unreasonable ( for the distances and space ) 100 kmph speed limit. And it's I believe some 3 times bigger than europe. Yet in europe, with an incredibly increased density, you NEVER get the traffic you get in canada on the highways. To top that off, when there is traffic, not only that the panels tell you, ( no "Collectors moving slowly" when you can do 130 bullshit ), preciselly what speed you should do ( if you should gradually go down from 130 to 40 ) , and when you do hit the traffic jam, EVERYBODY puts their blinkers on, so they don't get rear ended by surprised drivers.
And if people do get into an accident, which is NOT BY FAR as often as in canada ( once again given the difference in density you get some laughable numbers ) the other side of the highway doesn't completely stop so that every stupid idiot can look to see a two fat tow truck drivers scamming the fender bender clients.
My canada bashing ( which is mostly construtive criticism in a first hand sour tone [ trouth hurts , curry smells ] ) is related to my past here, when i lived in canada, and i got bashed and got told to move back to europe. SO I did , now i'm just providing the odd report, like i said, not only to the people that told me to leave but most especially for my european brothers in canada, that feel something is missing and are reading this . The stuff i said about the war, was pointed towards american mentality, that I know FIRST HAND, is present in Canada. I know Canada is officially against the war, but there are a lot of white trash in canada that would want Canada to enter the war, and those white trash, make up a great percentage of the true canadians unfortunatelly, since most others are newer generation emigrants from all over the place.

btw I stopped reading all your crap after your 4th thread so please stop.
Oh and Global Warming for those who are confused by the different theories, is a circular solar cycle of about every 1500-1700 years. It's a natural occurance.
#24
Also this post was less about global warming, and more about personal, national health and mental health , but of course, most of the ****s that fall for other propaganda bullshit, fail to read between the lines.
#25
Yo cozmin why don't you just stop already. If you read the Thread title that you made..... I'm dooing my part to save the planet and your whole first thread is about you not driving and using mass transit or bying a smart car or a bike. I don't know when you changed the thread topic 2nd or 3rd reply but you should make a new thread and call it Why are people from north america so iggnorant .....then you can talk about all the crap you want.
BTW. I was being sarcastic if you notice the (LOL) at the end of the sentence.

i have stopped many times . this thread has been here for months, i don't really continue it on a daily basis
as for the LOL ... you drive a V8 ... no need for the LOL ... and most people do in the suburbs ... some can't even fit their asses in a 4 banger ... and YOU KNOW that's true . anyways , sorry my sarcasm was a bit more subtle than "LOL" and you got mad at me for the thread name not matching the subjects

they are fixing this though ... they also banned public smoking in western europe much like in canada. just that it just happened now. shitty part is that they don't let you smoke tobacco in cofeeshops anymore, which is pretty retarded ... other than that public smoking bans are GOOD
#30
definently more smokers here . i started smoking again when i moved back to romania cigarettes were 1.50 $ and EVERYBODY everywhere was smoking.

i think the smoking bans in coffee shops and bars are the best palces to have them along with malls and restaurants. nothing worse than going out for a drink a meal or a coffee and having someone smoking right beside you or near you. its fuken ignorant. its like me taking a on a table infront of a smoker. essentially the same kind of dis respect
