Isn't that crazy, somebody breaks into my appartment and steals my *change*... nothing else, just the change from the change jar and a few coins on top of my bookshelf... they didn't even take the jar itself! Very odd criminals here... Don't forget

<div style='font: 9pt Arial; text-align: left; '>It was an American, I'll bet. The USD's so low that even Canadian loose change is worth a fortune.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>It appears that he/she/they also rummaged through my girlfriend's jewelry box but didn't take anything... This guy left my computer, my TV, my video game systems, my games, my movies, etc., etc., etc., and just took the change. Weird.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt Arial; text-align: left; '>Why do you suppose Canada has fewer crimes?</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>It's because Americans have an "every man for themselves" type attitude. Community is a part of Canadian culture, the idea is despised by Americans.</div>

[Zeus]

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Not sure. I mean, don't get me wrong, there's lots of crime, but it seems to be a fraction of what you guys have down there (I have lots of family in Michigan and other parts of the US). People here bitch but don't do much about it, down there, they'll kick your ass because they can</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>The vast majority of crime that happens here is also minor theft of items that are easily replaceable, it's not really much to worry about.</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Well, we do have gang warfare and murders here in Toronto...</div>

[Julius Seeker]

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Though to be fair, not all do. I am not sure if anyone here does. However, I do know that is a common thought among those I have talked to from places like Texas.</div>
