“I dated a Canadian girl for 3 years”

Me too, but for a year. Each Saturday after payday I would drive the 130 miles up to Vancouver BC, stay in her parents guest house in the back, and on Sunday night make to the return trip back to Washington, getting only a few hours of sleep before getting up for work at 4:00 AM Monday. If we would of continued dating though, It would of been her moving here, not the other way around. They have better beer, great skiing, nice people, but the prices are a killer.

In Windsor Ont the call the GST (goods and services tax)”Go South Today”.

(Even though technically Detroit is North of Windsor).

Every Saturday the malls in Detroit are FILLED with Ontario plates. Gosh, I wonder why?

I married one. We live in Georgia now. Took her two years to thaw out; she can’t stand the thermostat being set any lower than 74*. This in contrast to where I found her, where cars had to be plugged in overnight to stay warm enough to start in the morning, and where I once had to drive two stories underground and wait an hour before the wiper fluid melted sufficiently to keep the window clean enough to drive.

No wonder those CA Dems didn’t follow thru on promises to move north.
