Who would have thought you where founded by rich white men who didn't want to pay taxes and your still ruled by them. I know you have fairy tales to tell you otherwise but....

Let's not get too high-and-mighty though.

For just one example, the reason BC's old growth forests are something like 98% gone today is because a bunch of rich old white men sold off most of the forest-bearing land to... themselves and their friends. Canada had (and has) its own oligarch infestation.
