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?"

    one where the lifestyle isn't that much different than your own?

    Except for that part where we peel our faces off and reveal ourselves to our god. Wait, forget I said that. Everything is fine.

    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.

    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. :)
