i am pretty seriously considering moving from the states to montreal... anyone in montreal or with similar experience have any advice? other than learning french... would having a job with a company in the states that i could do from there be helpful?

hmm... elaborate if you could?

Well, I moved TO the US so my experiences probably do not apply in this case. but the number of Americans I hear saying they want to move to Canada!

It's just something we say.

yes. like many it had its genesis in the ol' drunken 'if bush gets re-elected i'll...'

It's like a rhetorical question, but it's a statement.

I've always wanted to move to America Jr.!

They put out for just a handful of dollar bills, I hear.

i am not sure if that is sarcastic and mocking or sympathetic and enthusiastic but either way: yes.

If I moved to Canada it would be to some remote northern island so I could get all Unabomer-ish... I'd force you all to post my manifestos on ILX so I wouldn't have to touch a computer.
