We'd love to welcome you! 😂
Old people as well. Why would a country want someone nearing retirement age. Double strain on Healthcare and pension.
Countries want young people who will put more into the coffers than take out.
Well I'm 49 years old, have no retirement savings to speak of and I'm a registered nurse with 15 years experience in the ER and putting in PICC lines and apparently they are dying for nurses because for the most part it sounds like they mistreat them. So they might get their pound of flesh out of me.
Also I have hitchhiked from Portland Maine to Labrador and back and in my mind that should automatically give me honorary citizenship. I've actually hitchhiked to almost every maritime province. But still, they don't return my calls.
Wait...are we talking a couple of thousand miles round trip?
Hitchhiking? Yeah something like that. 3000 I think.
Whoa
How long did it take you?
"HONOURARY", citizenship denied lol.
That hurts actually.
Canadian people always tell me how much they love Cape Breton and then I ask when they went there and they never went but I hitchhiked through it twice, learned the fiddle music and the dance and hung out with a lot of old drunk Cape bretoners who lived in Boston and still I have to show my passport at the border. Bullsh1t.
Tbh I can't remember. I think 40-60 days. 2007. My memory has never been good. Still isn't.
Here's a picture from Labrador to prove I was there:
Red Bay, Labrador
https://flic.kr/p/5dUQeNHow many newfie jokes can you tell, though? 🤣
(Had a family friend from Alberta that would visit every summer and he'd delight us with his newfie jokes when I was ~10. I didn't even know where Newfoundland was then!)
