Ok, Heather Mallick is really ridiculous"Canada has a Conservative minority government right now that does have a core belief. It's that Canadians deserve a good stomping, all of them. Conservatives can't stand people, particularly if they're female, or second-generation Canadian, or educated, or principled, or not from Alberta, which is the home

I think I know what you mean about pretend life. I felt that way in Japan and in Florida.

I would've figured you to feel that way more about Nebraska, somehow.

I can see where you might think that, but those places felt so foreign to me, and Whitehorse does too!

BTW for Malick that's pretty good. And I kinda agree with her honestly. It was once said about CSIC, my professional body (Canadian Society of Immigration Consultants) that it's run by a board full of amazing, talented, honest, ethical consultants who think every other consultant is a crook. I kind of feel the tories feel that way about the rest of Canada. Everyone wants a fucking handout and needs to just STFU and get out of their way before they stomp them, is their attitude, it feels like.

It's not about feeling foreign, I think. More about... isolation. Like, who the fuck lives up here?! I felt like a foreigner in New York, or in Mexico, but I didn't feel like those were pretend lives because there were so many people living them there...

I felt like I was on a movie set! I felt that way in Montreal for a long time too, really.
