Fortunately they are a rare species here as well.

Oh yeah nice people mostly, Quebec the exception, but they don't have a lot to talk about.

I miss Canada, I can't lie! Half of my family is from there and I love the people.
However, when my husband and I tried going to Alberta this past September, he was denied entry due to a misdeameanor of the 3rd degree he pleaded guilty to 7 years ago in COLORADO! According to Canadian law that kind of "crime" is a felony and you can spend up to 10 yrs in jail for it.

My jaw dropped so now unless we can clear his record here, he will unable to visit Canada and meet my relatives.

Needless to say I was shocked and disappointed...Now he just dispises Canada and I think it's funny because the trouble he got in was HIS fault. I was unaware that it'd affect him to the point where he would be denied entry. Yikes

So what if we don't have the right to bear arms? That essentially means that we're not allowed to kill people... sounds like a good thing if you ask me.

Americans see that as a bad thing because they feel you need one to protect yourself from other gun trotting individuals.
