At this point I would think Canadians are better off where they are in a more tolerant country over Australia
Kiwis are a great example of how far Australia has to go, once welcomed in a bilateral agreement as family and in reverse despite the odd sheep joke. Due to a several year Aus media blitz around 2000 that all changed and all of a sudden became doll bludgers despite a significantly higher employment participation rate than Aus born at the time and since.
Would not like to see that message ever be sent to Canadians I would not wish that upon them, could happen to anyone with such a free access agreement.
You will become welcome when you get an AFL team, kiwis used to play Aussie Rules before they became anti-Australian.
We don't? I don't know what you call a bunch of lumberjacks, trappers and traders, mapping and hacking their way thru 3,854,085 sq miles of bear, wolf, moose, and mountain lion infested nordic countryside in canoes with no hope of help from the "motherland" then. lol
I also think that when the Queen dies, we'll both at least wait until then and not before, Canada and Australia will both take the oppertunity to let go of the monarchy.
Crazy Frenchies
I'll admit, I had a memory lapse when I made that post.
Is it a real possibility both countries might move for Republic status after the Queen dies? I don't know about Australia, but I doubt for Canada. You guys seem to love your monarch much more than the Aussies do, just look at both of your oaths of citizenship
I've seen both of your posts in this forum and in the Canada forum. I get that you hate cold and snow. What I don't get is that you get off your butt and move to Australia through the regular immigration channels instead of hoping for some weird open border that is never going to happen. Based on your posts in the weather forum it seems as if you are pining to live in a warm Australian climate as you go on and on about how "lucky" Australia is in terms of climate.
It really shows just how pathetic Canada is when it comes to climate diversity. A warm lover has no where to go in Canada. Despite all my issues with the US subtropical climates (due to the existence of the landmass called Canada) it is still so much easier for me to move to a warmer climate than you unlucky Canadians. I'd take a place like Beaufort SC any day over Toronto or Vancouver.
Britons and Irish have it worse when it comes to climate diversity don't they?

They do. At least Canadians get hot summers, unlike the Brits and the Irish (though I don't get the appeal of summer days above 80°F, to each their own)
As an American, I'd love to be able to move to Australia, too! Heck, I'd take Canada, too! Thanks awesome US economy! Can't I apply as a refuge, since the politics of my country are getting worse?
