Thousands of Americans Heading North

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

Now with them gone we can start focusing on building and returning this country to its pre 60's former glory;

You're likely going to meet some opposition with that strategy. Remember that the richest of the rich, the top 0.01% of the population paid roughly 70% of their income in federal taxes back in 1960 whereas they pay merely 35% today. Oh the lost glory...

Have you even BEEN to Canada before? If you were being sarcastic than that is fine, but where I come from in Canada, we often get 100s in july/August because of the humidity. It GETS hot! We do not live in a perpetual igloo-like state.

And there are a lot of great things about Canada. Genuinely nice people being one.

I really believe she was just saying this in jest

[thetreble 19]

In that case, I retract!

I was joking lol I have no interest about canada wanting to visit that country or moving there.

Okay then I guess your comment is kind of useless.

Shame to not want to travel to a country bordering the country you are living in.

I think it is a choice made by evdogg412. The choice may change over time ... then again it may not. It is their right to choose when & where to travel. I think this person might have already experienced travel in other countries (a guess on my part given the Philippines connection).

And you criticize this why ?

[thetreble 19]

I never criticized nor did I ever state that her choice is wrong. Please read the words carefully before you assume what I meant. I meant that it is a shame not to want to visit and explore ANY country, especially one that is so close to the US and happens to have a lot of beautiful places. That is my opinion. The poster can do what they want; I could care less. However, I think any one who said to someone "I don't want to visit your country" would say, "why not? it's great here...." I have a right to say that, thanks.

these words would have been much more of an invitation to visit Canada ... just my humble opinion

btw: yes I've been to canada many times in all seasons ... and have enjoyed every visit even if most of them were work related (oil/gas and water/waste water projects). I hope to take my wife to visit friends in NB next year so we can watch the river (Miramichi) and wildlife go by. Now if I could only afford the fishing license ... I have the guide.
