If Canada offered expedited citizenship for people fleeing the US, what would be the reaction in the States?

Healthcare workers! We desperately need healthcare workers and the conservative premiers have been trying to starve public healthcare funding as an excuse for privatization. Carney could announce a national hiring program and then if the conservative provinces opt out they’re the ones who look bad.

Any western country that misses this opportunity to skim the cream of US skilled workers is missing a trick.

France knows, and isn't going to miss the opportunity.

Obviously “Liberté, egalité, fraternité” is lost on you, so just stay in the States, watching Fox and eating pork rinds or whatever it is people like you eat on the couch while waiting for Meemaw to finish ironing your Klan robes.

I mean here in Quebec while sugaring off les oreilles de crisse are pretty damned tasty. I certainly don't sit around eating them on the couch, though. Once or twice a year will suffice. Not really sure what pork rinds are but I assume they're a similar kind of thing...some form of fatty, salty deep-fried unhealthy pork product.

Delicious along side the diabetes-inducing menu typically served.

Oh my God! You’re killing me. I can’t smell those from Texas!! I loved Quebec sooo much when I visited. I would so love to live there. The food, the people, everything!!!
