Our evening news here in Vancouver BC says immigration from the U.S. has been substantially higher since sept. 11, and there has been allready a lot of buzz on the internet and inquiries to Canada immigration services from U.S. in the last 2 days that shows there may very well be a large number of U.S. citizens whom are anti-war and anti-Bush seriously considering a move North.
Just to let you know… job growth is happening here in B.C., in particular we have a big shortage of nurses… amoung other professionals. Hey anti-war U.S. peeps! this Canadian wants you as her new neighbour!
The scary thought, is if all the non-militant anti-right move out, what kind of U.S.A will be left?!
Mind you a lot of the communities in B.C. that I really love, such as many of our gulf island communities are made up of a fair number of Vietnam war draft dodgers. Many of them contributing to our arts communities, and well, some growing some of our pot.
It’s interesting to think how a country is formed by it’s citizens, and how trends build onto one another. subtle and not so subtle global shifts influencing the temperment and makeup of many different nations.
Too bad we can’t ship some of the Canadian Bush supporters south!
