Work permit? With a PhD in physics? Gee, that would be really hard. Especially given that 2/3 of the faculty in my department is foreign-born.

For what I want though, it's 1 down, hopefully 3-5 to go until I can go back home again for good with nice faculty job at UofT or UBC.

How much do you want to bet you stay in the US?

Given that much more than half the Canadian-born profs I had at McGill got their PhD in the US, that's a sucker bet for you.

Can't find it right now but both Canadian and European physics grad students in the US returned home after receiving their PhD at a rate of ~65% circa 2002

I have to say, this has been a fun read. I love seeing people get pwned

[JimmyCracksCorn]

I'm talking you, personally, Krazy. I believe you will stay in the US.

Why, when I like Canada more than the average Canadian?

It'd be more fun if he would put up a better fight.

So much that you decided to leave? Whats wrong with a Canadian grad program?

Haha, its kind of hard to fight against someone who's only response is that Canada can "blow" Denmark's "asses out of the water", and completely disregards the actual issue. I honestly can't tell if you're just trying to get a rise out of me, or if you're really just totally ignorant about the question of Canadian sovereignty over the Arctic.

They're in nowhere near the same league as top grad schools in the US, beautiful.

So I went to a US grad school for the same reason every other physics grad student does. And I'll return home for the same reason most of the other newly minted PhDs do.

Don't get me started.

We'll get you right after we take out Denmark.

Mission accomplished, time to head home.

"take out Denmark"



You don't even have armed icebreakers, fool.

Come to think of it, Denmark and Israel are pretty similar:

they're both insignifican on the world stage
they both hold extraterritorial claims involving a less-developed population
they both threaten regional stability
they're both in the pocket of the US

the list goes on
