Why did Sask get brought up? Personally I know it is the best province, but I rather keep it a secret and keep the population to a million,lol

I have a few friends who are from Saskatchewan, and one drunken evening we figured the world revolution theory.

Plus, its the easiest province to draw, (far easier than Ontario that's for sure!), so I think we're on to something ;)

divorced - April 2010 moved back to Ontario May 2010 and surrendered green card

PLEASE DO NOT PRIVATE MESSAGE ME OR EMAIL ME. I HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT CURRENT US IMMIGRATION PROCEDURES!!!!!

You do know that not all people are 'ignorant' because they don't share your point of view - I hope.

Yes, I know. People can have a differing opinion than my own. In fact, it's often more interesting when someone doesn't agree with me. That makes for a debate, which I tend to enjoy.

When I do use the word "ignorant," I try and make it known that ignorance is not the same thing as stupidity. Someone can be very intelligent and yet ignorant about a topic. For instance... I'm quite ignorant about extremely cold weather and snow/ice conditions (especially when driving). That doesn't mean I'm a moron. It simply states that I lack the appropriate knowledge on that subject.

It's not your issues with how things are going for you in Canada that offend. Those are perfectly legitimate complaints. For me, it's the tone of your posts. It has nothing whatsoever to do with Canada.

That's fair. Sometimes my words (when online) come out sounding far harsher than initially intended. This normally isn't the case in real life, but then again, I have vocal tone, facial expressions, gestures and body language to help me out. Here it's text with an occasional smiley and that's about all.

My objective was not to seem insulting or rude. I apologize if that's how I came across.

I suppose I've had to deal with a lot of adjustments in my life recently. Not only am I in an entirely new country and city, and having to deal with the government messing my info up, but I'm experiencing a winter that's cold! I realize that's probably amusing to many of you, but I'm used to winter in Houston (which is about 10C or so) and none of this "below freezing" stuff. It's quite a shock to the system. I now have to wear jackets for longer than a couple of weeks and actually layer my clothes! I've never layered clothing in my life! In addition, my first attempt at using a scarf met with riotous laughter from my wife. Somehow I designed a noose instead of a scarf.

Oh well. Both a noose and a scarf go around the neck. :P

:lol: You will learn in time how to tie a good scarf. It must be quite a change for you from Houston to Alberta. It can get mighty cold up there. Rest assured though that winter is such a beautiful season and is worth experiencing in Canada.

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard

Fortunately, I'm in BC now. My wife is originally from Alberta, but we moved to BC since it's not quite as cold. Aside from the cold being... well, cold, it also affects my asthma badly. One time in November I was in Edmonton and I had a number of asthma attacks due to the temperature and wind. I think the wind was the main culprit.
