Pierre Berton, he is what Canada is all about to me, he enjoys the country and writes about it.

you mean someone that emmigrated to Canada?  i dont know about universities in canada, but citizens in the US have lower tuition costs etc, and also they are more qualified for scholorships.

Only *dumb* Americans resent Canada. I've met some Canadians and I've been to Canada, and I see *no* reason whatsoever to resent them.\n\nI think some idiots took the South Park song "Blame Canada" a bit too seriously and have absolutely *no* idea what satire nor sarcasm really is.

Not that I know of.  But there are countries that allow "naturalized" citizens to do so.  Canada, for one.

I would love to have Canada as part or the USA. I think they would be a good and positive influence on us. But I don't think the Canadians would go for it. They think we Americans are all cucking frazy.

Canada and most of the people are wonderful.  The native Canadians (ie ones born there) are very proud of their history and their country.  Some are not too happy with what others are trying to turn their beloved country into and are fighting back the socialist and left wing wacko's that have immigrated from the USA and Europe.  I wish them (the fighter) the best of luck.  Canada is a great country to visit.\n\nRemembering all the problems (past and present) the USA is still the greatest nation to be born in, live in, fight for and be buried in the ground.  Why else would millions of legal and yes illegal immigrants want to leave their homes, families, friends and come to the USA.  I vote with them, if they are legal citizens.

You want to marry a Canadian lady? WHY...probably just to get into this wonderful country. Sucks to be you.

I'm originally from the US but moved to, and became a permanent resident of, Canada. My reasoning? I met a guy from online face to face.. we got along.. I went to visit him.. we ended up getting married the next year.\n\nLiving in a country that's different from the one you grew up in does take some getting used to, that's for sure. I find myself getting homesick and nostalgic even after having been here for over 4 years.

Canada does not require you to be a resident to purchase property.  Your contemplation of violating Canadian laws to buy property makes you a very unwanted person for Canada.

It shouldn't be hard, you file an immigration form to Canada, you get your PR card, then you have to spend 3 years in canada and then you are eligeble to apply for canadian citizenship

LOL! some people are just plain morons! As  I was scrolling down reading every ones opinion-answer, I notice a few "Americans" are going to either "A" leave the U.S or  "B" move to Canada...Does anyone else see what is wrong with this?? Let me explain....those that said you will be leaving the U.S.A for for Canada or another Country...correct me if wrong but wont you then become the one thing you "hate" yes that's right. You will all become Immigrants in a foreign land. I find that to be Ironic. Next time you may want to think before you answer..............

i am an American and am married to a guy from Canada.  neither one of us are in the military however.  first off, i'd like to say...don't move to the US.  it would be better in my opinion to stay in canada and have him move there after he is out of the military...unless of course he's going to be a career military man.  my husband and i have spoken, and we've decied that it would be better to live in canada.  for one, I would not have to give up US citizenship because Canada offers dual citizenship.  in order to become a CITIZEN of the US you have to give up any other citizenships.  another reason is easy...healthcare.  once he is out of the military and has a normal job...insurance can be outragously expensive.  besides, our doctors aren't as good as the ones I've seen in Canada(Toronto area).  If you really want to live on base with him (or whatever it is that you need to live here for) i'd would not apply to become an American citizen.  just stay a permenant resident.  the only thing you can't do as a permenant resident that you can as a citizen is vote.  also if you commit a terrible crime, like murder, they can deport you.  but i'm sure you won't be doing that.  if you stay a permanent resident you won't have to give up canadian citizenship.  your daughter won't lose hers either.  i'm tellin ya, as an American getting ready to move to Canada...you should stay put and make him move there.  he'd like it...i do! \n\nps...the spellcheck is messed up so please excuse my spelling!

As an American born, naturalized Canadian, living in Canada for the past 40 years, but visiting family a couple times a month in the US, I am going to say Canada.  Life seems somehow a lot less stressful in Canada and a lot more laid-back.

Well, if I had the choice... I would use the US Airforce to napalm the Canadians. Then we have a better view of the North Pole!!!

I'd say anglo-canadian would be most correct.
