The legendary editor of the New Republic, Michael Kinsley, once held a boring-headline contest and decided that the winner was "Worthwhile Canadian initiative." Twenty-two years later, the magazine was rescued from its economic troubles by a Canadian media company. Now there is even more striking evidence of Canada's virtues. Guess which country, alone in the industrialized world, has not faced a single bank failure, calls for bailouts or government intervention in the financial or mortgage sectors. Yup, it's Canada. In 2008, the World Economic Forum ranked Canada's banking system the healthiest in the world. America's ranked 40th, Britain's 44th.
