“I’ll start,” the OP themself said.
“Was gonna say this.
US rest stops are beauties.

“We have some excellent museums in Canada, but American ones are just on another level.
I remember how impressed I was with a relatively little known naval and military park in Buffalo.
Americans do an amazing job at preserving and showing their history and heritage.”

Canada is among the highest in the world for data plan costs.”

It’s cheaper for me to go to Europe than the other side of the country!”

7.“Parks!
Their national park system is great, and they have lots of them.
Our national parks are also good, but not to the same level as the American system.”

“ADA theAmericans with Disabilities Act.
It mandates that EVERYTHING must be accessible.

Including TV/movie captions which is super helpful for me as a deaf Canadian living in the US.”
Accessibility in Canada is surprisingly awful."

“Job opportunities, absolutely.
“They make better tv shows and movies.”
11.“Barbeque.”

12.“Tourism!
Canada just can’t seem to get the tourism they get in the US.
Especially small towns, they tend to cater to tourism and encourage it.

“Road trips through the US are amazing because of the interstate system.
The rest stops along the way are great too.

Driving across Canada is extremely painful.
It’s easier to get wine from California in Ontario then from BC.”

“Their fast food is still cheap, unlike ours.”
16.“Innovation.
The Americans have a much more advanced and knowledgeable economy than we do.”
u/anypomonos
17.“Tailgating.
College football pre-game is next level.”
“Way more social.
Canada is an anti-social country and very hard to meet friends/relationships.

It’s one of the big reasons why they earn more than us.”
Since moving to Canada I truly have no idea when my mail will be delivered.”

“Customer service is far better in the US than Canada.
Also, positive attitudes in general are more prevalent in the US.
Canadians, generally speaking, have far more of a crabs-in-a-bucket culture than Americans.”
