As noted, I'm not into this for the bling, but are Canadian boxes/packaging rare or anything??
Not up here in Canada... Strangely enough, I recently bought a new, sealed-in-box copy of Fu Man Chew from a shop in the UK, and it came in the US packaging. I was kind of hoping for the European packaging, just to check it out...
Aside: there is a big difference between Canada and Mexico... Mexico's a developing country. Canada is one of the - if not THE - best country in the world to live in.
FYI, ('cause the US media would never report this) Mercer Consulting just published their annual list of the Fifty Best Cities In The World To Live In. Canada's five largest cities all place in the top 25. The United States doesn't have any cities listed in the top 25. Mercer, the consulting business of Marsh & McLennan Companies, employs more than 15,000 individuals in 40 countries around the world. Their analysis is based on an evaluation of 39 quality-of-living criteria for each city including political, social, economic and environmental factors, personal safety and health, education, transport and other public services.
The Mercer report echoes the findings of London-based EIU (Economist Intelligence Unit) that in a recent publication stated "
With low crime, little threat from instability or terrorism and a highly developed infrastructure, Canada has the most liveable destinations in the world."
Of course, Americans are frequently stunned to discover that pretty much everyone else in the world thinks Canada is a better country to live in than the United States, but that's because we generally work really hard to keep it secret from those living south of our border... We've seen the trouble they have with Mexico, and we don't want to have to build a 8900 km barb-wire fence...
PS. When there is a Thunderstorm in Canada, do canadian count the approaching storm as "one Mississauga, two Mississauga?
When there's a thunderstorm in my neighbourhood, we go out and play in the rain...
