With an economy that is booming, second largest proven oil reserve (the largest by 8 times if you count the untapped sands), half of the world's fresh water, abundance of minerals, wood, an unstoppable dollar that makes the US look like a cheap Wal-Mart store, 4.9% unemployment, McDonald's paying $14/hour for hamburger flippers...etc.
Is it Canada's turn to live la vida loca?

It doesn't have enough people. Its population is about 1/10 of the US. Norway is also a country with a good economy and oil. No one listens to them either.

We don't have the population...we're content being "America's hat" and take pleasure in watching our loonie overtake your dollar.
Look out for China...they have the population and the capital...

Doubtfully. Socialist economies dont tend to last, though can really revitalize world economies.
