I’m not discounting that - for sure - it’s easier to deal with immigration, obviously, when you’re a white person with a Canadian passport. And easier yet if you have even modest affluence.

But. Suggesting that no one outside fo the U.S. should travel there is a little bit of overkill.

More than you’d think.

I think there should be a way to “trade citizenship” for people that otherwise would be acceptable citizens.

Like, say, hockey cards… trade you a Team Canada for a Team USA.

Put a bunch into U.S. stocks.. lol…

Otherwise, I don’t really see the point.

Perhaps. I’m naive and you might be called hyperbolic.

People with immigration issues ought to not, maybe, travel to the U.S.. You didn’t qualify your comment however. You suggested that no one should travel to the U.S.

I just pointed out for the vast majority of people - travel is not an issue.

There are so many reasons, politically, to avoid travel to many countries, for example, a few years ago I was in China.

And to Moscow, Russia before that when it was the U.S.S.R.

Amazing people but brutal government far worse than anything in the western world.

Travel, for me, informs.

Just got back from U.S., was lovely. Border security people were nice, professional and took less than two minutes.

I encourage travel to the U.S., one of the world’s great countries for sure.

Nellie.. didn’t you get the memo? In today’s world you’re either “radical liberal” or “far right”. Though, sadly, too many people - and judges - are getting caught up in that narrative, seeing the “others” and dangerous to society and doing things that betray their own ethics and values.

TBH I never thought about it until now. I think living in Alberta, we spend a fair bit of time here and in Montana where we are spoiled by nature… so when I look for a change, it hasn’t been nature - but I’ve heard Costa Rica is amazing.
