Thank You. That is the only way it should be.
The good 'ol USA has always been dear to my heart, because:
1) It's one of the greatest countries on the planet.
2) My grand parents were American's.
3) My dad was born in America.
4) My sibling(s) have worked or are still working in America. The has worked sibling was transferred by Nortel from Calgary, AB., Canada to Dallas, TX., USA; the still working is enjoying his twentieth year, along with his American better half, in the health care profession. Both siblings went through the arduous process of gaining their Green Card.
5) I have a gazillion American relatives.
6) I worked for an American that had a company in Canada. (The trade show circuit in the USA was always a blast. Oh, the good old days!)
7) I could go on, but I'll stop here.
You have a great country, but be ever so vigilant not to loose all your freedoms, which, I'm afraid my beloved Canada has.
Cheers. Your are a great American.
