O Canada

There are more canadians in florida that New Jerseyites in Cary.

More Canadians in Florida than Yankees in Cary? Could it be?

Why just the other day I dropped over to the local gas station and there was a native-born Southerner at the next pump. I told him, "You better get out here quick. Don't you know this is the Concentrated Area of Relocated Yankees".

Nine_Ender's posts magically disappeared from this thread? What gives?

I was about to tell him that most of the Canadian residents I talk with in Toronto are trying to move to the U.S. However to be fair... most came from overseas and tried to get into the U.S. first before settling for Canada. Most professionals believe the U.S. provides better economic opportunity than Canada.

The Canadian citizens up here near retirement age spend endless hours planning on how to move to Florida.

Funny how these mysterious "professionals" and yourself are stuck working in the economic cesspool that is Toronto and missing out on all those "better economic opportunities". Grass is always greener somewhere else syndrome I think. What I see is you and your colleagues are a very narrow band of like minded people who set money as priority #1 over quality of life issues, so much so you'd commute every week to another country to make a few extra dollars. Your mistake is thinking this is how most professionals view life. Canada is not begging for people or "professionals", immigration is strong.

The bank who employed you is fucking up in my honest opinion. By failing to do proper HR work and training it's own people, it's stuck overpaying for someone that doesn't like or respect Canada. Don't kid yourself, network engineering or security or whatever you do isn't an overly valuable skill set that cannot be learned. You get paid because companies are highly inefficient in addressing some IT areas. You can try to snow others and talk up your game on here, but it won't get you very far with me.

You could always try to get him banned. That might make you feel better!

O Canada, our home and native land.
True patriot love, in all thy sons command.

I don't care a whole lot about an area of IT work that is often deathly boring in nature. Perhaps this is one aspect why it pays well.

New Canadian Prime Minster Plans to Legalize Marijuana

Last night, Canada voted in Justin Trudeau's Liberal Party in a general election -- a move that will have outstanding implications for drug policy reform in the country.

The election puts an end to Conservative Party Prime Minister Stephen Harper's nine-year rule, which was marked by a repressive approach to drugs, including a commitment to rolling out mandatory minimum sentences, pushback to effective supervised injection sites that reduce the harms of drug use, and strong opposition tomarijuana reform. In contrast, the Liberal Party has promised to legalize and regulate marijuana and Trudeau has expressed support for harm reduction and the expansion of supervised injection sites across the country.

Awesome! A move in the right direction, if you ask me.

..puts an end to Conservative Party Prime Minister Stephen Harper's nine-year rule, which was marked by a repressive approach to drugs..

Nancy Reagan was the public face for 'just say no to drugs'.

Maybe Mr Trudeau's wife can be the public face for 'just say yes to drugs'.

With a pro-terrorist gov in Canada,

border security is a big problem

Frontpage Magazine, by Daniel GreenfieldOriginal Article

"With backing from Obama´s campaign people, Canadian voters made a left-wing terrorist supporter whose only calling card was his last name, the Prime Minister of Canada. This is really bad for Canadians, but it turns the northern into a serious national security issue. Canada´s asylum policy has led to Muslim terrorist attacks on America before. The LAX Millennium bomb plot involved Muslims taking advantage of Canada´s lax asylum policies to enter and attack America. (Snip) Justin Trudeau is blatantly pro-terrorist. He opposes stripping terrorists of citizenship. He´s an advocate for Gitmo rat Omar Khadr.."
