Um, can you remind me which touchscreen smartphone available in Canada is superior to the iPhone 3GS?
Of course this is all a matter of opinion ... but any Android device, specially the NexusOne, Milestone. Even my perceived lowly Android 1.5 HTC Magic is superior in my opinion, even more so when it's updated to 2.1.

...1/3 being an apple hater...
Always interested in what it is about Apple that makes people "hate" them? As someone who has worked in the IT industry for 22 years and has ample experience working with PC's and Mac's I've never really found anything to hate about Apple or their products. In fact, Apple is my preference for personal use.
Always love it when people give their resume like it's some sort of valid measure to the quality of the product they prefer. Why do I dislike apple products? Too many reasons to count. The short list would be:
1) Top to bottom control from Apple. I know this is one of the things people love about Apple, but in my opinion it leads to mediocre products as there can be no user driven innovation.
2) Advertising. Whatever ad agency Apple uses should get awards showered upon them. They've done such a great job of selling ideas and perceptions that Apple fanatics rival religious ones for ignoring facts.
3) Proprietary everything. Can't stand proprietary formats (software or hardware) by any company, and Apple is the king of it.
