On behalf of Canada, I would just like to welcome any Americans who wish to flee from their country. With four more years of a Bush/Cheney regime, and with those guys having even more control than before, I understand if you are seeking a new place to live. Come on up to Canada. We're much more liberal up here. We don't get freaked out by a couple of dudes kissing, and the rest of the world doesn't hate us. In fact, they love us.
Just wanted to let you know that you're more than welcome up here.

But clearly Al-Qaeda also hates you for your liberties and wants to destroy you too?!

Canada is like the guy at work who thinks everyone really likes him, but really, everyone is annoyed as hell by the guy.

I'm honestly considering it. I have no idea what moving to another country entails, though.

Clearly....that's why we live everyday in fear of a terrorist attack. I knew our Freedom would come back to bite us in the ass!

America is like that drunk asshole at the bar who picks fights thinking it will make him look tough and impress the ladies, when really he's just making up for his fears and insecurities.

(I love Americans, by the way....at least those in the blue states)

:wink:

Ha! That was even better than mine. Don't you love making generalizations about entire countries. It's great fun.

I'd move to France before I moved to Canada. At least the French have good pastries.

I'll probably stick it out here, but I plan to continue making visits to your fair country - thank you for the welcoming invitation.

Hey Canada has nice food - Tim Hortons!

You can't move to Canada just like that. They posted an article today saying that the average wait time was one year.

I agree....without ignorant generalizations, we'd all have to work a lot harder to come up with our insults.

That's already occured to me. With or without mass excile to Canada, I think it could happen. IF Bush brings it up, it'll happen. His life is that charmed.

Well, if NYC doesn't secede and/or we don't have a civil war then I just might do that. I love those maple leaf cookies.

I was thinking about moving to Prauge and teaching English. Ya know, slacking off a bit but really getting to know myself.


But really, after I graduate I might bounce for a few years. Canada maybe, Australia and I've never been to Europe. I know a little spanish. :D
