I work in a record store. I'm pretty much living off of my girlfriend until I can find more meaningful employment. The London job market is quite saturated, but I have some money so I'm not too worried.

Wha!?  That's too bad, especially considering how badly they need qualified translators.  You might check to see if their internship programs are exclusive, as well (but I have a feeling they might be).

You might consider a stint in the Air Force (or Army/Marines/Navy if they suit you) to speed up the process, but be sure of what you're getting in to.  Those recruiters would talk fancy to you...

You could always marry an American citizen Smiley
Marrying an American is my plan.  But the problem is that only gets me a green card, not citizenship.  Citizenship is 5 years away.

And the military, well, maybe, but once again, to get an officer's commission you need citizenship.

It is sad but they are unlikely to trust a foreigner with national security issues, even if I am a WASP that will vote Republican for decades to come, will have an American flag in every room in my house, and will put Ann Coulter statues in my garden.

If you want to get out of Canada that badly you should join the French Foreign Legion. You don't even need to speak French, they teach it to you. Then after four years of service you become a French citizen.

Since your Candian you probably already speak French, no? Anyway, France is pretty rightwing and quite racist. You might like it.

de Gaulle?  Rightwing?  Do you even know what rightwing is?  And bi is French?  What??

Yes de Gualle, the man that launched wars in Indochina and Algeria, the man who's goverment declared homosexuality a mental illness, the man who instituted conscription, the man who's party fought for privatisation, the man who was adamantly against European integration. That sounds pretty right wing to me mate!

Yes, the French are known for thier fondness of swinging both ways.

Yes today's government is like his government. The Guallist party is ruling.

Citation? You know as well as I do that the French are known for that. Don't play stupid.

Right.  That is of course why there are no government corporations, why Chirac declared war on Iraq, is opposed to any gay "rights," has withdrawn from Kyoto, and notified the EU that they will not be joining the EU afterall and will reinstitute the Franc.

You're grossly generalizing and making this up.

You are possibly the biggest fool I've come across in a long time. You have absolutely NO knowledge of French politics, so I don't see the point of continuing this conversation with you. I will not be responding to whatever insane post you come up with next.

Pension is welfare.  People receiving pension are people that are too lazy to work and think they're entitled to sit on their asses and get money.

I appear to be seeing things... have you just accused the elderly of being:

"too lazy to work and think they're entitled to sit on their asses and get money."

Huh??

Great logic, innit?
