And if it is, why would BBC want to cause rifts?

Kinda nervous now, what if my neighbours hate me because I'm Canadian born? Really, this is very scary to me, we're jumping two feet in on this, giving up everything here in Canada... and what if we have no chance because we're considered "outsiders". Or is this more EU migrant workers or what? Is it an ethnic thing? I'm from the commonwealth, does that help?

ACK!!!
