Re: We got Ray
That is so true. The most beautiful country on planet earth, world class fishing, friendly people, I travel there 4 times a year and our family has maintained at least one cabin on kootenai lake since the 1960’s. I have stored a fishing boat in Ucluelet,BC for years and sadly haven’t been able to go for 2 yrs going on 3. COVID sucks in any country or language.bpj wrote: ↑Tue Nov 30, 2021 1:15 amGood stuff, thanks for this info.Case_Of_The_Runs wrote: ↑Tue Nov 30, 2021 1:05 amWell, yes. Home is home. But if you back a truck of money up to someone, you can convince them to move all kinds of places.
High taxes. Yep. But you never, ever see a doctor’s bill. Like, ever. Not an issue if you’re making $5M a year, I suppose. But still.
Low population density. Higher quality of life and longer life expectancy. practically no gun violence. Legal pot nationwide. Second country to legalize same sex marriage. Etc etc.
Hey - not bagging on the US. I choose to live here and love it. But there’s upsides to Canada.
As for the Buffalo thing - had to. Borders were ostensibly closed in both sides at the height of the pandemic. I haven’t seen my parents who are in their mid 80-s in two years. Covid fucking sucks.
Anyhow - not trying to take us down a rabbit hole. Just a few thoughts from someone who lived half their life in the US and half in Canada.
And they have won 2 more World Series than we have. Groan.
I don't know about you guys, but I'm ecstatic about Ray.

Well, as a Canadian expat I have a few thoughts in this.

Re: We got Ray
Non essential travel was banned in both directions at the height of the pandemic. The US lifted it first, but you couldn’t go either direction for a while - at least not for the purposes of visiting.D-train wrote: ↑Tue Nov 30, 2021 1:26 amDid the u.s. and Canada decide to close the borders?

A bunch of guys - some vaccinated others not - in close proximity to a bunch of other guys not wearing masks likely had immigration with their panties in a twist.

Only problem is it if you do that and then they run out of money and can't make trades or don't want to make trades as j.d. said he doesn't want to trade top prospects then I got to watch a dog s*** offense for another full yearbpj wrote: ↑Tue Nov 30, 2021 1:20 amSounds like a smart planHawkandMariner88 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 30, 2021 1:16 amAny rumors to Seattle being linked to Rodon because I'd be all in on him.

That's what I thought Point Roberts was basically trapped for almost a year because of the asinine closures.
