(not the stupid magas) that if they struggle too much to the point before going bankrupt, to come to Canada... if they can. Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver are open for business.

They said that there were numerous pro-Canada signs and posters, but everyone couldn't have been nicer to them and they had no issues at the border. I'm in Northeastern New York, closer to Canada than NYC and Ottawa was one of my Dad's favorite destinations - so I've visited with my parents. I went to summer camp in Vermont and we had quite a few campers (and counselors) from Canada. We also have reunions and I still have Canadian friends. At one of the last ones, the wife of one of the counselors (from Quebec) gave me quite a lecture on the dangers of TFG. She's always been a particular favorite of mine.
