Yeah cause I want a bunch of foreigners who are moving to MY country to come here and tell me how good or bad MY country is.

Are you applying to become a U.S. Citizen? If not you have no vote and no say in how thing go or should go in MY UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. If not you are one of a long line of people who want to come to here and reap the rewards of all MY country has to offer, but not really be apart of what makes it work.

Blake you have been a good friend for a long time. I'd like to keep it that way. Sign up and join us or stay off the U.S. political stage. You don't see me bashing Canada's government or way of life. I expect the same respect in return.

I think it's great that he's moving his business here! He'll pay rent to someone that will pay income taxes. He'll pay taxes. He'll employ people that will also pay taxes. He'll buy "stuff" that supports him personally and "stuff" for his business... THAT is how the world goes 'round...

As a businessman - he has a "right" to be worried about that business environment regardless of his nationality. He's running a business not a popularity contest. Taxes - the business clement - the economy and where it's going - are all worries regardless of where you're doing that business. Blake is making a MAJOR investment to move his business here. He'll also make a major investment in housing choices etc. That's a boost for OUR economy. I hope it works out for him and all his employees!

Greg,

You are 100% correct. I have supported Blake time and time again and I will continue to do so. I want to see him successful. However that does not give him or any other foreigner the right to tell me how 'good or bad' my country or way of life is. It's all a matter of perspective. We as American could be thinking that things totally suck, while someone from someplace else is thinking it's not to bad. I hear people in foreign countries saying that the U.S. should do this or that. What gives anyone that right to weigh in on something that they are not wiling to be become 100% of.

If you missed it....I am not saying this to just Blake. Again, he is my friend. I am saying this to anyone who wants to cut down or take cheap shots at my way of life had better be one of us. If not their opinion doesn't count.

That's exactly right. I had no idea Blake was moving his business. Maybe I'll put in an application. Of course I don't think my wife "does" snow...............

It's a sad, sad day for America.
4 more years of adding to the OVERWHELMING debt, giving money to the bloodsuckers/illegals, bowing down to dictators/kings and putting America on the back burner. I'm sick!
