Especially when there is the inevitable “It’s a whole lot better than anywhere else” thrown out there. What base in fact can this statement be made? I know some Canadians who have everything I have and more. Lot’s of European countries have it well, too. It’s all relative. But many would say this about wherever they were born without really taking a step back and seeing the big picture. There are plenty of great nations in this world who share in the same freedoms we do. But we’ve got the Grand Canyon. So we’re betterer. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/upside-down-flag-in-protest-of-obama-upsets-neighbors/200573)._
