I actually looked into New Zealand rules covering immigration before my wife and I settled down and had kids. Decided against it as at the time they had a left wing government (PM Lange) and it was just too far from home.

We are not part of the British Commonwealth so the rules for Americans are actually more restrictive than for, say, Indians or Singaporeans. They require either a whole lot of money be brought along to invest in the economy or some sort of critical professional work skill. I'd suspect some of the liberals in question can come up with the money but if not, I doubt that many of them have any skills that are needed. Besides, New Zealand has more than enough home grown leftists and I'd expect they would not welcome more of our nutcase varieties.

My God we have ENOUGH already!!! At least send them to Quebec if they insist on coming. Today my husband said "I'm ashamed to be a Canadian". That's significant because he has never been much of a political animal. He's becoming one.

My part of B.C. isn't Liberal. We have what's called a Liberal government but in reality it is a coalition of Social Credits (capitalist), and Conservatives and a minority of real Liberals. Corny I know, but the last Government of NDP (leftist Socialists) was TERRIBLE.

I don't think you want these wackos on your island. We'll take care of them.

Does anyone here work for BEKINS? Park that big truck in the front of houses in Hollywood Hills and Beverly Hills and have a big guy walk up and say "I heard you're moving".
