Canada the new Mexico?

[zenkai]

Nobody I know wants to move to the US. Pointless haha. Canada is so much better.

I know a few Canadians who prefer the US and I don't know any US citizens that want to move to Canada.

Wow, dat flamebait tho.

1. Actually, the GST cut helps those that need it the most..the middle and lower classes... dont think Billy the millionaire will notice his hydro bill goes down by 1%, but single mom Sally certainly will

Single mom Sally already pays effectively nothing in GST due to the GST credit, so no, it isn't really helping her.

That's gonna be a loooooooooong wall

[Slant]

Instead Walker's idea of building a giant wall in the North to keep Canadians out, I propose we build a giant wall in the North to keep Walkers out.

Proof of Concept:

Well played, sir.

Might actually be better then electing any of the republicans at least for minorities.


I agree with Bieber, Celine can actually sing even if its not your cup of tea and dear god man Shatner is the Captain don't diss the captain.

That is not even possible, physically. It would just bounce off his aura of manliness.

[GG you got me]

Silly and impractical idea, but the thread title tries to paint the reasoning in a different light than the article & his quotes. At the very least you get a clear sense of who doesn't bother to actually read links on this forum... in this case ~90% of posters.

Scott Walker is-

1, A delusional moron.
2, An incompetent buffoon.
3, A shameless asshole.

And the governor of Wisconsin, the state I live in. There are a LOT of unhappy people against Walker because of how horribly he destroyed our state. We want him GONE, but not if it means he's going to become President. We tried to recall him at one point, but he survived it because of some strategy he came up with, and now he's trying to market that strategy to other politicians in case they're facing a recall election. When it came time to vote for governor, it was a close race, but not enough people against Walker went out to vote. Too many people think their vote doesn't count, not realizing that every vote adds up.

I am an educated American citizen who would love to move to Canada, and according to their immigration laws I am eligible to.

I know several people like myself who would love to move north.

But you'd have to speak Canadian. And watch Hockey. And the snow... god the snow.

I grew up in Alaska, snow doesn't phase me.

I would have to brush up on my French, though--6 years of coursework and I'm terrible at it.

Only if you wanna live in Quebec, rest of the country won't care much

I'd actually like to become proficient at a second language for my own sake, Spanish is more useful in the US but I've always loved how beautiful the French language is. It's just spoken so quickly >.>

Now you do.

And so, the golden curtain (paid and managed by Donald J. Trump) falls across the North American continent.

He was cute and inoffensive when we let you borrow him. You break it, you bought it.



And I've known more than a few illegal Americans up here. All it takes is overstaying a visa.

As a tired American can I buy a house in Canada?

Yeah just stay west and you'll never hear it except for maybe during the national anthem in a big national event thing when they mix it up.

Shameless promotion of the west! =P I can't speak french at all, just a few short simple sentences and words here and there.

Upstate New York gets more snow than all of Canada combined. What we actually got is piss-freezing cold. Which is glorious because cold weather forces you to think practically. Also Hockey >>> Football and Basketball. We give you people three team sports and you crap on the best one.

[Ragedaug]

Yeah, I made the thread title up...

http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/p...an-border-too/

Walker seems to think a wall at the Northern border is appropriate too.
This begs the first question whether someone flunked geography....

What's more interesting is that Scott Walker didn't say that in the article you linked, and in fact tried to steer the conversation away from building a wall.

So I'm trying to figure why you would do that.

a) Are you ignorantly posting on an article you did not read?
b) Knew what the article said, but are pushing your political agenda trying to falsely demonize those whom you disagree with?
c) Knew what the article said, but figured most thread responders wouldn't read it and start flaming each other based on a lie that you used as bait?

...which could it be, hmm

Great Wall of... hey, my cousin lives on the other side....

Edit: Canada has discovered aviation, I think? Right? I might be wrong.
