- Oh, I didn't mean criminal in the legal sense, I meant it in the strike-fear-into-the-heart sense. - Beryllium May 7, 08:39 4
  - Heh - that perception probably has more to do with the different levels of trust Canadians and Americans have in government -- nm - Roger More May 7, 08:42 3
    - Perhaps, but the American system seems positively byzantine and impenetrable from an outside perspective. -- nm - Beryllium May 7, 08:47 2
      - The Canadian system seems byzantine and impentrable from my personal perspective. I have to fill out forms for federal *and* provincial taxes? WTF? - Roger More May 7, 08:52 1
        
        you have to fill out forms for federal and state, IIRC, in the US - so that much is similar, at least. -- nm - Beryllium May 7, 09:04
