You must move to a country that borders your own, forever - which do you pick?

[Sirtety]

I like to think that I was thrown out of America after I took over the government and instilled a new regime which I ruled over with an iron fist.

It took a rag tag group of freedom fighters to find the secret source of my power and topple my oppressive rule. I would have beaten them If not for my traitorous daughter, who had fallen in love with the resistances handsome leader.

Uh......where was I going with this.......

Canada

 

[scorptatious]

Hmm. I haven't really heard good things about Mexico right now. So, looks like I'm moving to Canada. That doesn't sound too bad actually.

 

[therandombear]

Easy, Sweden, for all the jokes between us, it is a rather nice country.

 

[joshuaayt]

New Zealand. Somewhere around Wellington, I do believe, but I can always move further down if I have to- I bet you don't get any shitty 45*C days there!

I can't really afford to move, though, so I guess the Government is paying my way? Uh. Thanks, guys! I should have killed those people years ago!

 

[Creator002]

Seeing as I live in Australia, I only have New Zealand and Papua New Guinea to choose from. Since I have family in New Zealand, I guess that's where I'm headed.

 

[soulfire130]

I live in America so my options are Mexico and Canada.

I'll move to Canada, I like cold weather.

 

[J Tyran]

In the UK so not sure if Iceland would count, probably either Holland or Iceland. Even Norway if it counts, nothing against France or Ireland but I like a colder climate so going further North would suit me.

 

[Dimitriov]

living in Kansas, United states, its either Canada or Mexico.

What to do. Take the safetly of Canada, but go politically insane (and maybe physically/mentally insane because of going politically insane) or Mexico where I will still most likely go politically insane, but have a higher chance of getting shot by the cartels. I think I will go to Canada, and just try and find somewhere more conservative. Isnt there a territory that is like Texas, but alittle more left leaning? If so, I know where I am going.

That would be Alberta... our Texas. They vote conservative, they have a ton of oil, they wear freaking cowboy hats... yeah it IS weird.

Of course there's more hockey than football... but there is still football.

Of course I am curious what about our politics YOU think is so insane. I mean there's lots to choose from, just wondering what you'd picked up on down south.

 

[Darren716]

I'm American so let's see here; do I go to the south with its poverty, constant drug war and countless other problems? Or go up north to what's basically America but a bit colder (not that big of a difference for a New Yorker) and is a bit friendlier? Gee I wonder which I'll pick.

 

[lechat]

every single australian will pick NZ cause we are basically the same culture/economy however considering we are girt by sea (lol only australians know what that means) we are also pretty close to indonesia and singapore

 

[Uszi]

Mexico, Canada is too fucking cold.

 

[Fiz_The_Toaster]

So my choices are either Canada or Mexico?

Goddammit... well... as much as I love Mexican food I'd have to go with Canada because I'm not a fan of the heat and I've had enough of the desert life. I hear there's a ton of trees and actual seasons up there, and colors other than brown.

I think I can deal with that.

 

[CrazyJew]

I live in Israel, I really have NO neighbours who would like me.

Can I please have Cyprus? It's only a 3 day swim away.

 

[Smiley Face]

Well, I live in Canada, so there's really one option.

France.

(Yes, I'm serious.)

St. Pierre and Miquelon? Nice. If everyone in Canada had to choose, it'd get pretty crowded...

No no, I say we get Quebec to secede, go there before it goes into effect, and then move back! Or, if you want to be in Quebec, vice versa.

By the way, I'm going to go over this and see how many Canadians rejected the idea of going to the States.


EDIT: Huh, 5.5 in favour of going to the States (I counted going to Hawaii as an attempt to get away from mainland U.S. as half), with 4 people rejecting it. Not bad, considering.

 

[drzoidbergmd]

From the US up into British Columbia.

 

[geK0]

I live in Canada.... so Greenland

 

[game-lover]

I'm gonna agree with the other Americans that chose Canada.

No real big reason except I think it's better than Mexico as an option.

 

[LordLundar]

As a Canadian I have only one choice.
As a Canadian who doesn't pander to the partisan politicking bull in America right now I would probably put a bullet into my head before someone else does it.

 

[Professor Lupin Madblood]

Well, I live in Canada, so there's really one option.

France.

(Yes, I'm serious.)

St. Pierre and Miquelon? Nice. If everyone in Canada had to choose, it'd get pretty crowded...

No no, I say we get Quebec to secede, go there before it goes into effect, and then move back! Or, if you want to be in Quebec, vice versa.

What?

Eww, no. Why would I want to live in Quebec? It's Quebec.*
