    If it ws impossible to wager on sports online because the govt did some serious cracking down on the online gambling industry would you make the move to canada?

    I hope the answer is no.

    Canada is doing well, Americans have a fine record of ruining a good thing when they get involved, please move to Mexico instead.

        I'm not, its how I feel and also the truth.

        Americans fυck things up for others, thats a fact - Jack.

        Plus we are all commies/pinkos/liberals with our "free" healthcare and other social programs.
        No American worth his salt would want to live here and be subjected to that.

        Stay home in the land of the free and brave.

                      Been to Canada.... don't want to ever go back. So clean, so sterile, so boring....

                      Unless the GOP closes down Vegas, I'm not going anywhere.

                            That's a stereotype. Surely not all 300 million Americans are like that.


                            And the OP, I already moved.

                                  Exactly, plus the US and Canada are supposed "allies" and "friends", if that is in fact true Americans looking to go to another country should bypass Canada altogether, coming here could only worsen relations between us. I like things the way they are now.

                                  We have enough foreigners here already, don't need more.

                                  Plus, as foreigners you'd likely not get bail here when charged with a gun offense. Guns = jail in Canada.

                                  Pick a more gun friendly destination.

                                        Perhaps not, but it doesn't take all of them to screw something up, it only takes a few.

                                        So what if it is a stereotype, it doesn't change fact.

                                          More stereotypes, great.

                                          Americans have been moving to Canada and vice versa forever.

                                          You really think a shitload of degenerate gamblers are going to move because they can't bet online? Most of these guys can't afford a tank of gas let alone to move to another country. 75% of the gamblers I know in the US bet entirely with locals -- it's all through the internet now anyway. I really doubt a handful of professionals that might set up shop in Canada is going to have any influence on anything or anyone.

                                            No, I don't believe it, hence my stereotypical and silly comments.
                                            I don't take many of the subjects posted here as serious.
                                            Have you seen some of the responses?

                                            I thought you would have caught on by now.

                                              these are very ugly times to be an american.the gambling crackdown just takes the cake.

                                              But this country also has tons of creativity and you just have to put up with the crap if you are an entrepreneur . I dont think alot of these countries could have given birth to an apple or a bill gates or a steve jobs or a silicon valley. in alot of countries the unions and regulations really stifle alot of business start ups and the work ethic and is just not there.we are still an incredibly productive nation

                                              so many of the latest technologies are still being born in america everything from the iphone to medical advances,computer technologies,etc.

                                              just focusing on guns or george bush and crime is a narrow viewpoint

                                              this is still a great country if you have ambition .
                                              remember these people are bashing americans on an american forum.most countries dont have any good gambling forums .a true sign of decline

                                                the next: celebrate colombia's indepence day

                                                then: colombians like to kill people

                                                then: i might move to colombia
                                                Like every country it has its ups and its downs. If you stay in a city of Colombia you most likely won't get kidnapped. Colombian bitches are fvckin hot, look at these hoes. I would like that girls ass.

                                                  Yes I know I live here. I've also been everywhere, cities, beach, jungle, mountains. No kidnappings yet. I'm as gringo as it gets.
