      canada has much stricter immigration policies than we do - buddy of mine had a kid with a canadian so he moved up there. skilled guy, owned his own carpentry business here in the states (aka not a destitute immigrant who cant speak English or French) - it took him over 5 years to get citizenship. it takes a lot longer for random immigrants, and canada doesnt have a guest-worker program like germany does. they dont want more citizens
