CNN could never and would never

Thank you, Mr. Trudeau, for cutting immigration. Just before Trump is elected and all the US liberals decide to come to Canada. The likes of Whoopy (I don't know what that means) and Joy, whom I haven't seen joyous since I have been watching the view. Okay, I have not been watching the view, maybe never. And, of course, Mika and Joe from MSNBC, can't forget Velshi, I'm pretty sure he is Canadian, okay, he can come home. And the CNN folks, we could take a few from there, CBC would hire them. BUT THAT'S IT. Thank you again, Mr. Trudeau.

I ‘ve met so many Americans on trips and through living in San Francisco for 3 months for a course. They were very kind, thoughtful and knowledgeable people. I also love many beautiful places in the States. I find though, that the media ignores Canada to a great degree only reporting negative issues . I don’t care for the super nationalism of the government, the gun laws, the many wars they’ve been involved in, nor do I like the racism and the present divisiveness of the country given that a person like Trump could be voted in and have so much power! That is frightening! I could never have afforded my two hip and knee replacements as well as other surgeries and the birth of four children had I lived there consequently, I would make friends with Americans who move here withthe same principles, but no to moving to the United States OF America.I was happy to return to beautiful Vancouver Island, (which was voted one of the top Islands in the world by CNN, Time magazine and Conde Nast, )
