“But I know a guy who emigrated from Canada because he said the opportunities for success were far greater in the U.S. than in his native country. He was very successful in his career in sales in America.”
You were describing me? Born in Sask, schooled in Vancouver, emigrated offcially in 2006 officially after a sports scholarship from UW was offered.
I almost cried when I went to 7-11 and any store in America were selling beer. In BC, the govt controls both liquor sales and car insurance. In California, there are 5000 car insurance companies and in BC, the cheapest you can get from the govt was $90/month....I am not kidding.
So whomever fool or idiot tells you that canadian healthcare is free, it’s not true...you pay a monthly premium or you head to jail. I escaped obamacare now I am knee-deep in this sh*t in 2014.
Not you....the guy I know emigrated about forty years ago. But thanks for your story. Is UW U-Wisconsin? How did like us Cheeseheads?
