I can bestow Canadian Citizenship to you.

As luck would have it, the Prime Minister's Office sent me a coupon book of 10 Canadian Citizenships.
It seems as though Immigration Canada is looking to attract immigrants with skills and education and they have a pilot program to give these "coupon books" to specially selected "goodwill ambassadors" ( I was one of the lucky ones).

So. There you have it. I've got 10 of these sweet tickets to freedom. First come, first serve.

Any takers?

Would they let me bring my solar panels?

No thanks. I have been to Hamilton, Winnipeg, Yellowknife, Abbotsford and Hongcouver among others. None of those are places I would want to return to. I have had a good time in Montreal and Toronto but one gets damn tired of all the French in the former.

Last I checked, all the Quality Inns come in various shades of beige. Try Calgary next time, you'd be stimulated by the local conversation and exotic food.

whataya mean MY?

US taxpayer property there, slim. Not worth it anyway as the average solar power is about .046% of what you get in local. No worries though as hydro quebec makes enough juice for all. I hear they sell their surplus to the A-rabs who are a little short on hydro-anything. This money pays for the free healthcare. You may want to put your paperwork in now though for the other hip, as you'll need to live to wolfie's age to get it.

Does this include a lifetime fishing license?

Sadly, no.

But if you're into seal hunting, March is "All-You-Can-Club-Month" in Newfoundland.
Seriously...how can you pass on that?

Don't let those squishy, liberal PETA/Greenpeace homos tell you otherwise...

...SEALS ARE LIKE FUCKING RATS UP HERE!

I'm not kidding! If we didn't cull their population with crowbars and hockey sticks, they'd be knocking over garbage cans and chewing up wiring from Flin Flon to Banff!

Sorry, but that's a deal breaker.

Yeah but 24 hours per day in the summer. Not so much in the winter, though. Prolly need a tracking system.
No worries though as hydro quebec makes enough juice for all. I hear they sell their surplus to the A-rabs who are a little short on hydro-anything.
I'm no expert but I think it takes wires to sell 'lectricity. You think they have some really big wires running from BC to Riyadh?

Already got both done on Blue Shield's dime. So I'm good there. What's the wait time for knees and shoulders?

I think the way they pull it off is they got a super tankers filled to the brim with double A batteries. One leaves St Johns, NB every wednesday, fully charged.

You may actually have something there.
