Canadians Now Richer than Americans



For the first time in recent history, the average Canadian is richer than the average American; and not just by a little.  Currently, the average Canadian household is more than $40,000 richer than the average American household.  To add insult to injury, not only are Canadians comparatively better-off than Americans, they're also more likely to be employed.  The unemployment rate is 7.2 percent in Canada, while the U.S. is stuck with a stubbornly high rate of 8.2 percent.
