Why Canada?
 

Just out of interest, what made you choose Canada?

I guess this is a question to those that didn't have a specific reason to move there such as a spouse or job offer.

I killed a few people in Texas. As Texas is a death penalty state I knew that Canada would not extradite me to face "the chair". Therefore Canada seemed like a better choice than, say, Mexico.

Canada chose me by way of the ex wife being Canadian. Then I stayed, then went back to the US, then back to Canada.

I honestly had no thought, desire or interest of immigrating. Just kind of happens sometimes.

Did it to p*ss my ex off...well a little bit. Was going to join him in Toronto but he decided he wanted someone else, so I went on vacation to Vancouver, liked it and decided to apply for working holiday visa and I'm still here now...waiting to hear if I can make it my home permenantly :)

The wife's name starts with a C so for her it was either Canada, China, Chile or Cambodia.

I would've preferred the Caymans.
