Yes, but Government had nothing to do with it. I applied for several jobs, was made an offer by two different firms in the London, ON area. But because my skill set, Network Engineering, is not a NAFTA class job, the Ontario Government had to allow the firm to hire me. Both times my petition was denied, stating that there were Canadians in the job pool with the same skill set, on paper, as me. Thus the firm had to hire a Canadian.


Hindsight being what it is, its a good thing we did not move up there. My business is doing very well (knock, knock on wood) today.


I think I see where you are going with this.... No, I am not going to leave just because I fear where our country is going. That would be akin to surrender. We are still the most free nation on Earth, but we are close to giving it away.... And for what?


Let me be clear. I do NOT hate my country. I've fought for it, i've bled for it, i've buried friends for it.... I'd still die for it, without a thought. What I hate are the people we have selected as our "leaders". Barely any of them have ever kept the promises and oath's they have taken. Their tap dance game will end soon though, because the people are starting to wake up and pay attention. Its all it will really take. People to start holding these scum bags to their word.

I love my country, I HATE how our politicians abuse our Constitution.

How is the "stimulus" nonsense Constitutional?
How would a "free" health care system be Constitutional?
How is The President appointing all these "Czars", Constitutional?

Just because the people vote a guy in, does not give them the right to forget the Constitution.

If they ignore the Constitution, whats to stop them from doing anything else they want?


ETA - In summary.... I'm not a "run away" kind of guy. I'm the guy who marches to the "sound of the guns".
