SOME people don't have coverage. But that does not mean they are not treated. The poor have the best coverage of all as they pay ZIP. If they get a case of the sniffles all they need to do is walk into an emergency room.

No ride? No problem...call an ambulance...it is free for them.

I am more for making an impression on the Canadians.

Someone in one of these forums called the American establishment "heartless bastards." So, they're not entirely heartless after all?!

This is one of the best ideas so far:smile: A shame tho,that the US waited for their economy to become worse than the Cubans to start.

You'll have to try one of these weird animals when you get
there. They're called a Coco Taxi and they tend to roll over
at times, but they're a blast if you consistently lean into the
corners with the driver, and she realizes what you're doing,
then they'll really open this thing up and fly...:lol:

Just sit behind the diriver, and lean forward, and lean hard
into the corners and the body will lean a bit with you...so
with some speed you slingshot through a corner. Oh yeah,
only the Driver gets a helmet.

What would they eat? Genuine American cuisine is not exactly commonplace.

No "tater tots", hotdogs, grits, hush puppies. Would the culinary schock be too much?

Oh they will start. As soon as the doors are open there will be plenty of hot dogs, hamburgers, and apple pie.

Besides... grits and hush puppies are a Southern thang.

Can you drink in them and hang out of them yelling?


You can walk down the street with a beer, and I don't know
if you can drink in a Coco Taxi or not, 'cuz you'll want both
hands to hang on, so I never tried. These things aren't quiet,
so you can scream all you want and I doubt anyone would
even notice (most sort'a sound like a lawnmower/chainsaw).

I guess it would get to be like Ft Lauderdale after a few yrs. Trash all over the place. 70 yr old obese men in speedo's, 70 yr old winkled women in bikinis.

Lovely.

I get goose bumps thinking about it! The last bastion of Canada. The ONLY place where you could go and not see an American. Now they will be bellying up to the bar and slapping their palm down...

"HEY! What does a guy have to do to get a drink around here!"

I remember seeing a conference list a few years ago listing the names of various participants. It mentioned the name of not one American, but did mention that Americans woud be present. Americans have been going there already, just illegally of course.
