I have a few of them, and they are the best people on the planet. They are the best friends you could ever hope to have, and the trust you should work the hardest to earn.

Some of it's true, there are a lot of nice people here, especially in the big cities. But I can vouch for there being lots of ass holes here too. After all we are the ones who voted in Steven Fucking Shithead Harper. *cry*

We have Mitt Romney?

Please don't hold it against those of us who love Canada. LOL.

I swear that if I can, I will immigrate to Canada. I believe I have enough criteria.

Vancouverite specifically. Family and me taking my grandfather out to dinner at Pizza hut. Not that Thanksgivingish but we have never been one for the Turkey and all.

I live in the US, but I can speak French, and I am Disgusted that Republicans could win.

Actually I am only half Canadian, but I have dual citizenship because in 2009 Canada changed its immigration law to include first generation born outside Canada to Canadian citizens. My father was a Canadian citizen at the time of my birth in the U.S. Whee!

I have wanted to visit the Maritime provinces, even tho that's not where my father's family lived -- they emigrated to Canada from Connecticut in the late 1700s and lived in Ontario and Saskatchewan, mostly.

Newfoundlanders are reportedly the salt of the earth -- wonderful people.
