Canada Moves to Keep Skilled Workers
ashitaka writes "Just in time for all those who have vowed to leave the United States in response to government policies and mainstream cultural malaise, the Canadian government is announcing a C$700 million initiative to help skilled workers stay in Canada and become citizens. If you had the choice, would you really uproot to a new country especially one where the lifestyle isn't that much different than your own?"
is that you have to dress like a mountie.
i am, updating my resume and packing my bags as i read this .
we have tonnes of green land
Every time I've been to Canada the land has been white.
What are you a Hurrican chaser?

Nowadays a guy can go a whole day in Toronto without ever seeing a single igloo.

>>Canada Moves to Keep Skilled Workers
No one can move an entire country, not even Superman!
Except for that part where we peel our faces off and reveal ourselves to our god. Wait, forget I said that. Everything is fine.
One line blog. I hear that they're called Twitters now.
I'm a Canadian. You Merkans would hate it here. This place sucks. Don't come here. We regularly eat children and stab puppies for sport. It's cold and everyone has a dog-sled. This is a horrible purgatory. I beg of you, please don't come here.
Don't kick the baby...
What are you?? Some kind of libertarian scum? If you let people keep their money, all they'll do is spend it foolishly on stuff they only think they need. Instead you have to tax away a substantial portion of people's income so the government can spend it wisely on stuff the government knows they need. You just have to learn to trust the government more. They're here to help you, you see. With hatchet, axe, and saw.

Don't piss off The Angry Economist
I hate to tell you this, but you read the map wrong and didn't go far enough north. You only made it to Utah. :)
Don't worry, many Americans hate France too.
Well i'm not in the US, i'm in the UK...That said, we haven't exactly done a grand job of keeping anyone out anyway...
;)
More precisley, you haven't exactly figured out who to keep in. I guess the Americans and Australians weren't the rejects that you suspected they were
Should we include starving artists in that as well? If you're a depressed starving artist living in a loft and you spend your days drinking coffee and splattering paint on a canvas (or eating your body's impression out of a bread-mattress) that nobody will want to buy, you are OWED health care. Hell, society should owe you a fucking CAR! And a nice one, too!
So is Chicago. What's your point?
The poor, poor Waltons. They have no money to speak of since it's all tied up in stock. And everyone's out to get them because they provide plenty of well-paying jobs to the community while all but giving away high quality goods. They provide great benefits for their employees while taking absolutely nothing from the government. We should all bow before the great Waltons and the sacrifices they make for all of us.
..when do I get my entitlement?
The program is for "skilled workers"
Well, immigration of Australians is essential if the beer is to be kept flowing in the London's bars.
As for Americans, we need them here because...
I'll get back to you on that one.
For all intensive porpoises your a bunch of rediculous loosers
"Also, Canada has the second largest oil reserves in the world." Yes, sir, Mister President, I do believe Canada is intending to use weapons of mass destruction against us.
