So, we'll see what happens. <BR/><BR/>I actually just learned tonight from some older Americans-turned-Canadians that you used to have to renounce your US citizenship if you became a Canadian. The states made you do this. But, now they apparently keep on taxing you while you're a Canadian.Rufushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17762279210783841414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10166090.post-48471510300989455282007-12-11T19:04:00.000-08:002007-12-11T19:04:00.000-08:00Hiromi: That's really interesting.

I'm halfway hoping they'll ask: "Would you be willing to cut off a finger for Canada?"<BR/><BR/>Holly: Not a lot of Broadway musicals start that way either.

One question they asked her was "Would you be willing to take up arms for the United States?" She said "hell yeah" and got her citizenship. Can't say what would've happened had she said "No," though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
