Hi, everyone,
I'm a US citizen who grew up in the Syracuse, NY area and, after some travel, moved back. My husband and I are totally disgusted with the way things are going in the U.S., with over half the country voting in Bush twice, no less. We know we're not alone, but we're beginning to feel like strangers in a strange land. We adore vacationing in Canada, go there every chance we get, and the minute we cross the border each time, we breathe a huge sigh of relief.
I'm here with the hopes that I might strike up a few conversations with people who might let me know what it's really like to live in Canada. One day, who knows? Perhaps we'll apply for political asylum. ;-) Could y'all use another Spanish or ESL teacher? a mainframe programmer perhaps? A couple people who would love to improve their French? As Leonard Cohen said, "I'm Your Man!" (oops! Except that I'm a woman! Oh well!)
Looking forward to learning what it's really like, because from this side of the fence, it's looking pretty wonderful.
Cheers,
Lonnie
