After the Nov. 4 election, some Americans may well find the spectre of living
under 4 more years of Reagan rule unappealing.  Canadians such as myself
certainly find the new conservative government *here* less than heartening,
but infinitely better than the southern counterpart, and we still do have
effective (and efficient) universal medicare, effective gun control,
eminently livable cities, and generally a lifestyle most Americans would
be quite happy with.  As well as a good, if small, hi-tech sector, with
world leaders in communications (land and space based), particularly.
I'm sure a local Canadian consulate or the Canadian Embassy in Washington
would be able to provide more information, if only on tourism.  It's a nice
place to visit too.

Submitted in all seriousness,
