Everyone is worried about illegal immigration from the south, but what about legal immigration from the north?

Just hold on, and here me out.

Canadian education is as good as American Education, likely cheaper. They already know the language and culture, they could do the same work you do cheaper (especially considering the cost of healthcare, if they keep their citizenship) we will eventually be overrun by Canadians.

You make some good points, although the last sentence ran on for quite a bit and could have desperately used some punctuation.

The point I'm not sure I agree with though is that Canadian education is as good as American education. I think its better. For instance, it allowed me to properly identify your improper use of "here".

I've spoken to your boss, he has agreed to hire me, I'll be replacing you in 24 hours. You can walk out immediately, don't worry about giving notice to your boss, I've already had the appropriate discussions and he knows you are leaving.

[QUOTE=Joekerr;17355795 But never heard "Chet's"...no idea what that would mean either.[/QUOTE]

I heard during a lonely few months in Moose Jaw, I think it was in reference to farm boys but had no idea what my host family was referring to. I just agreed for fear they would not feed me.

And it is. No system is perfect but virtually every economic and social indicator has the USA behind high tax nations such as Canada, Australia and northern Europe.

US taxes are incredibly low and I say that as someone who does vote "right" at times.

My wife is Canadian. I find these discussions hilarious.

I still want to know what you guys do with all that Costco milk. Seriously, 100 gallons of milk? WTF do they do with it all? take milk baths? use it to process tar sands?

BTW, Canadian women are fitter, smarter, and lower maintenance than American women.

When I lived in MI, it was a 30 minute drive across the bridge to Windsor.



Nobody here in North Carolina knows what poutine is..., it sucks.
