(don't get me wrong, I love people, but...)
Con:
Canada's "doors" are too open. People born in Canada are treated more poorly than those who have 'come later', at least in the big city of Toronto.
Pro:
They get snow there. 
(Touch thinks Canadians travel by dogsled and that Bob and Doug MacKenzie wrote a documentary.)

Toronto is not a part of Canada, it will soon be Capital of Wonderland or Neverland!

I can tell you have never been to Texas. In Galveston, the mosquitos are so large, a horde of them come up off the standing water when you drive up and it looks like a friggn flock of birds at a distance.
And they know what cars are....to go food containers! Bastids! They circle cars.

You can go to bed at night without locking the door.

You wake up in the morning and find a bear in the kitchen because you forgot to lock the door!

Not a part of Canada? You mean I'm NOT a Canadian, but a Wonderlandite?
Well, now, that kinda makes sense.
Con:
Humidity makes the hot summers near unbearable!
Pro:
Beautiful vistas like Batchewana Bay in Northern Ontario! 
edited to add:
You don't lock your doors and windows, and bar them, in a place like Toronto you'll be lucky to wake up on a bed... if at all!

Pros.
Nationalize Health Care
Their social acceptance of weed.
Their ketch up, fantastic stuff.
Cons,
CFL. are you sh!ting me.
Lastest purchase of stare of the art weaponry was the sling shot.
They have the Queen of England on their own money. That's just self acceptance slavery. I bow to no man.
