Niagara Falls

In response to "The Canadian side of Niagara Falls is prettier," I once heard someone say "That's because you're looking at America!"

Guess what? It turns out it's mostly because you're looking at Canada.

As you can see, the cliff that creates Horseshoe Falls is about 60% in Canada. Plus the majority of the water falls into Canada. So, obviously this victory goes to Canada.

But don't feel bad. Northeast of Horseshoe Falls is the American Falls, so-named because it's located entirely within America. Also, it sucks so bad that they have to light it up with colors at night to get people to look at it. And even then, you're only looking at it because Horseshoe Falls is so awesome you needed a break from it.
