Turncoat Traitor Americans Flee to Canada

Its not the first time that American and Canadian policy have diverged to the point that Americans have gone North. US and Canada will eventually come back together, and the people will eventually come home(most of them anyway).

Mark G is a homosexual or Greek or something who lets his own clouded perception of culture dictate the way OT is run! That means no girl threads, no saying Alexander was a Macedonian, nothing in support of Turkey - and you have to wear PANTS while posting!!! Shorts are uncivilized (especially on girls) you filthy leg shavers

Ahem. Don't worry Yanks, There is a steady flow of people heading South seeking relief from excessive taxation, and who don't think your politics are so bad. This just might even up some of the trends.

The thread title speaks volumes of the thread starter.
Perhaps these Americans are simply tired of their tax dollars going to the rich.
