So, Canada is basically like a crap Australia?

[Drake Tungsten]

I loathe the man.

KH?

Seems to me 50/50 doesn't mean I'm more American than Canadian. The tiebreaker is I was born in Canada and lived 22 years in Canada, only 4 in the USA. I think I'm more Canadian.

But you live south of the 49 and have dual citizenship.

My father's side is American and Canadian. They moved back and forth a lot over a couple hundred years.

That doesn't exactly strengthen your argument.

Yeah, if there's one thing we've established in my 11 years at Apolyton it's that I love Trudeau.

Well sure, but that was then. This is now. You are a Torontonian now, attitudes change.

Your stupidity is bothersome but expected.

Well, to be honest, I wasn't too crazy about him when he was a socialist.

If you had told me 9 years ago he'd be working for Goldman Sachs I'd have raped your dog and stolen from your dead mother.

Ben math... 50 > 50



What a moron... but no surprise since everything else he posts is usually incorrect as well.

****. Is it too late to jump on this deal?

Add this thread to the long list of British failures, right up there with the ****ing British Empire and beautiful people.

Yeah, one of the Brits who hasn't emigrated yet is calling other countries ****holes.

Priceless.

[Drake Tungsten]

Brits don't emigrate to Canada, precisely because it is a ****hole.

I think it may've been his sexism rather than math skills.

To Ben, man > woman, so that my father was American means that I'm mostly American.

He's a pig like that.

Tell that to Thoth and Starchild.

[Wezil]

Drake -



Yeah, no Brits here.

Maybe that's who's behind the Afghan insurgency.

[Drake Tungsten]

Far more Brits emigrate to Australia, New Zealand and America. Canada is for the dregs who have nowhere else to go.

edit:

More than 50 per cent of the British emigrants moved to just four countries in 2006 - Australia, New Zealand, France and Spain. Eight in every 100 went to the USA.

No. You pay tax in the country you live and work in if you're a dual citizen.

This is absolutely wrong.

Your quote doesn't even prove that Canada is not the biggest single destination for British expatriates.

[Asher]

This is absolutely wrong.

No, it's not. If you are born a dual citizen (rather than someone who gains it later), you are only required to file tax return to the IRS if you have ever prior established residency there and earned income.

I also do not have a US Passport and have never earned any income as an American.

There are some different rules for dual citizens by birth. AFAIK I'm also not required to use a US passport when entering the US, while that's usually a requirement for dual citizens of the USA and another country also. At least no one's ever mentioned it when I've done it many, many times with a Canadian passport.
