If you’re an actual communist, you would be unique. Even China hasn’t been a truly communist country for almost three decades, at least in any form Mao would recognize as communism.
Communism, like many systems of government, only works well in small communities… and my mom grew up in the USSR and we both supported Bernie Sanders (socialist not communist). @Bodangles I actually listen to Canadian public radio sometimes because it gets broadcast where I live. How politics relates to higher education… um government subsidizes education more in Canada, like a more socialist country would, and college is cheaper but very one sized fits all, big, less bells and whistles, and less hand holding compared to the US.
OP: Why would you want to come to the US though?? College is expensive and the exchange rate between currencies wouldn’t help that, the drinking age is 21 not 18/19, and being a student doesn’t guarantee you a work visa.
Canada and the US both have capitalist and socialist parts of their economies. Of course, in certain sectors like medical insurance and higher education, the socialist part is a larger percentage of the sector in Canada than in the US.
Overall, Canada is more left leaning than the US; somewhere on the left side of the US political spectrum would be like the the political center in Canada. But university students, like most young people, tend to be more left leaning than the overall population.
