I have a question about your friend who you told to move to Canada. Would she have faced a harder time trying to move to the states? I think one of the things that came up in the whole 9/11 mess was that it was easier for people to get into Canada, then due to laxer laws about boarder crossing between the states and Canada move in that way.

I am curious because this is not the first time that I have heard that it is "better" to move to Canada than the states, the information though it second hand, and as I have no personal friends or family that is doing it from a country outside of North America I have nothing closer to pull from.

Reasons I have heard to date included that it is easier to do legally, and less culture shock due to our large areas of cultural grouping (hence why I go to certain areas of the city if I want to go shopping in a Chinese mall for example) I also heard it is easier to become a full citizen. So what points do you recommend Canada on over the states?
