RE: Turks and Caicos to j
I think the biggest question is would the Turks be drain or a benefit to Canada? I'm not convinced that it's a hornets nest. After all, the population is only 32,000. That's peanuts in a country of 32 or 33 million. I don't see them all jumping on the first flight to Fort Mac to work for the big money. I imagine most would prefer to stay where their homes are, provided they can make a living.
Now as far as paying for health care, schools and all the rest, well, Canadians are doing that already. But it's in the form of tourist dollars, instead of taxes.
Now, as for the suggestion that people should be impaled for supporting such a proposal, I find that much too meadieval. In keeping with the Turks and Caicos Islands pirate history, I propose that future supporters of this nonsense should walk the plank!
