We would get a lot more guns, and you would get a lot more high grade marijuana. I didn't realize that you had any shortage of guns or that we had any shortage of high grade marijuana. Ignorance on my part, perhaps, because I don't bother with either. I'd just as soon they opened the border, I think. Frankly, I don't distinguish between the US and Canada much more than than I see a difference between North Dakota and South Dakota. I understand that that attitude is a bit of a sore spot with Canadians, but we've been buds for so long and are so much alike, I simply can't think of Canadians as foreigners. I haven't crossed the border all that often but it seemed to me to vary greatly. Driving, I've always just said "hi" and kept on going. Flying is quite different. They check your paperwork before you get on the plane just like you're traveling to Timbukktu. You need proof of citizenship. I took my passport. Seemed silly. All we could say was we have to move here, we have to move here. I've been to your city. It's lovely. I was there only once en route to Banff, Lake Louise, etc. It seemed to be a very livable place, although perhaps not in the winter. As for the Island, I like everything about it. I can't imagine a more perfect place to live. Of course, visiting a place and living there are two different things. And then there's this little citizenship problem... Karen
