Welcome back to North America. One thing about seeing places like that is it shows us how good we really have it. There was a big explosion is a little town about 25 miles from me and it never even occurred to anyone that it could be terrorism. It was a bobcat(mini front end loader) hitting a gas main. I think we do tend to focus to much on our problems rather than what is great.I agree with HornDog that it is a good place to live or in my case live north of. As soon as the pardon comes through or I finish sanding off those fingerprints I will come for a visit.
Maybe I will even stay illegally and make your kids learn to speak Canadian in the schools <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
