Sorry...
Forgot who I was talking to...

I've been away from home for a few years (from Halifax, posted to Edmonton). When I was there the weather changed every 5 mins, you never know what it was doing.

I also lived there for both Hurricane Juan and White Juan. Largest snow fall ever recorded for the area. Lovely times. No power for a week.

What is the point of moving away from conflict?

[JuNii]

So people want to escape a healthcare plan to a country where they have an even better healthcare plan...

It would make more sense when they move to a country like Mexico...

It's like saying: "I'm an American and I hate the death penalty, that's why I move to China"

Did you read the OP?

Yes, I did. Did you follow the news lately?

The OP isn't telling about 'why' Americans should move to Canada.

But in 'my' news, the main reason why some Americans make a lot of noise is about healthcare. We even have a permanent thread on top of this forum about this specific issue.

Of course, it takes some calculations and consults with experts to make the correlation.

Usually, when one derails a tread that suddenly, some warnings are needed so that the puddings don't get spilled all over the place...

Not all conflicts are the same. Not all conflicts are worth it. Sometimes you gotta stand up for yourself (by protecting whats yours). Sometimes, you gotta stand up for yourself as well (by not wasting your time and betraying yourself).

Frack...I edited the poll and all the votes are gone. Dont accuse me with cheating...

It's HK... What do you think?

That I wasted a few dozen keystrokes with that question?

You can do that in 12 keystrokes?

She said a few dozen...
That would mean that it took her 24-36 keystrokes to type 20 characters...
(granted that's better than I am doing tonight, but still...)

Ta gueule, both of you.

So when are you guys moving here? I swear its not that cold. I wore shorts today outside!

PS: Check out the T-shirt:

Disclaimer: Canada isnt perfect either but its prolly better

Bah! It's not that cold, he says. It's -10 degrees C where I am, without wind chill. (Makes it feel like -20) Just wait until December...

Back on topic, I already live here (though I am not gay) and I have to say, even though we have our faults (*Cough*Harpertron and the Cons*Cough*), it is a very nice place to live, and I'd recommend it to anyone that doesn't mind the weather and the mosquitoes.

In like tongue, I urge NMG to COME ON DOWN TO AUSTRALIA!

We have free healthcare for citizens, civil unions for gays, and ... FLIES AND MOSQUITOES AT THE SAME TIME!

Er ... also Kangaroos punch you in the face on Main Street, and walk away scot-free (protected species) and really really dangerous and aggressive snakes and spiders ... er, and me, who hates NMG's guts for reasons I can't quite remember.

Talk to a mod about that.

If that happened, it COULD be used to cheat a poll.

Yay! Dyakovo gets a pitch he can hit!

And it's GOOOOOOOOONNNNE !!!

[DaWoad]

I thought I'd add a Canadianism in for fun. Though apparently they can be pretty nasty in and around the Winnipeg area, though I've never been there myself.

You haven't seen anything till you've seen the blackflies on the moosonee in high summer . . .thats bad, real real bad.

I don't understand. What is yourself? What is "whats yours"?

The self that is you...

yourself
Main Entry: your·self
Pronunciation: \yər-ˈself, Southern also -ˈsef\
Function: pronoun
Date: 14th century

1 a : that identical one that is you —used reflexively <you might hurt yourself>, for emphasis <carry them yourself>, or in absolute constructions b : your normal, healthy, or sane condition or self <you haven't been yourself lately>
2 : oneself

That doesn't help. What does "standing up for oneself" and not "betraying oneself" consist of?

I do.

It's an abbreviated anagram for Lesbian Gay Bi Transexual Queer Curious Anti-Gender Gender-skeptic Crypto-straight LGBT-Conscious Universal Community of Folks who Ain't Straight.

I think I might have joined it once. Or perhaps that really was a skanky chick, and she scammed me out of ten bucks.

you either stand up for yourself or you end up walking all over yourself.

and if you betray yourself, then you're basically stabbing yourself in the back or shooting yourself in the foot. if you're prone to doing either... then I wouldn't turn your back to yourself.

[Cameroi]

non lgbt. though about moving all my life. at my age and uselessness i doubt if they'd want me.

but i guess it IS still a thought. benign strangeness will put me where it needs me though, which for now, seems to be where i am.

No. At least I didn't, till you asked the question. But wiki is my friend:

Initially I thought it stood for Lunatic Goofballs Butt Too or something
