フォーブス。com asks: Is this The Canadian Century?

"…The 21st cen­tury is shap­ing up great for the Canucks,” thanks to a sta­ble bank­ing sys­tem, plenty of nat­ural resources, and a strong hous­ing mar­ket, among oth­ers. See all “10 rea­sons why Canada is cheer­ing."

Is Canada too mod­est? Commentator Timothy Egan, blog­ging for the ニューヨークタイムズ Opinionator, 書き込み:

Why the lack of self-​​esteem? Canada — snap out of it! You’re gor­geous, baby, you’re sophis­ti­cated, you live well.

.…Vancouver is Manhattan with moun­tains. It’s a liq­uid city, a tomor­row city, equal parts India, China, イングランド, France and the Pacific Northwest. それはです the cool North American sib­ling. If only, and this holds true for the rest of Canada, it didn’t feel the need to blush.

で Village Green: Vancouver’s medal-​​worthy Olympic Village, ザ Huffington Postの says that the place to live post-​​Olympics will be in Vancouver’s new オリンピック村 近所:

Vancouver’s civic lead­ers believe that the athlete’s vil­lage built for the 2010 Olympic Winter Games, and the planned neigh­bor­hood that will sur­round it, will be one of the very green­est neigh­bor­hoods in North America.  I am inclined to agree.

And it’s not just Vancouver, 言う Shelter Offshore, which asks Could You be Happier Retiring in Canada?

If you’re look­ing for a decent stan­dard of liv­ing for a fair price, 1laid back yet sophis­ti­cated coun­try, a place where you can grow old grace­fully and with dig­nity, a nation with lively towns and cities and plenty of stun­ning nat­ural attrac­tions – then yes, Canada could be the right choice for you.

(Want more about retire­ment in Canada? Here’s our ear­lier post on the トップ 10 場所はカナダで引退する.)

And on the lighter side, ザ ニューヨークタイムズ also weighs in with It’s Not Political, but More Canadians Are Lefties:

What is the dif­fer­ence between a Canadian and an American? The old ques­tion is com­ing up again here at the Olympics, with answers involv­ing eager­ness for war, ケチャップ, the pro­nun­ci­a­tion of タッチ or the abil­ity to iden­tify POU-タイン and the Tragically Hip.

But none may be so sim­ple as how one holds a hockey stick. According to sales fig­ures from stick man­u­fac­tur­ers, a major­ity of Canadian hockey play­ers shoot left-​​handed, and a major­ity of American play­ers shoot right-​​handed.

No rea­son is known for this dis­par­ity, which cuts across all age groups and has per­sisted for decades.

Happy read­ing!
