well its true,

I mean you can get into this country with a drivers license,

I mean you can get a bank account, mail box, apartment, phone all in your name with american ID,

trust me, you would be surprised,

youll only have a problem if you go back and forth alot, the customers people will catch on,

but the worst that can happen is they will turn you away,

I mean if you have kids or heath problems, obviously you have to be legal,

but if you just want to hang out in canada then just show up,

I know peeps who just flew to vancover from amsterdam and were there almost a year just hanging out, on visitor visas

an I know other people who just show up adn dont have anything,
I have been wanting to check it out for a long time now. Knew I could go up for a visit with no special papers or anything but was not sure how long I was able to stay.

So, I do not have to be a citizen to rent a place or get a bank account... but what about work.. any stay of lenght would require me to work. Would I need something special to get hired on somewhere?

Your suggestion sounds great.. this way I can see if I really like it there or see if I can make the adjustment from what I have been living under for the past 38 years of my life.

Don't get me wrong, I love it here, just very unhappy with our govt. and their stupid laws. Canada really seems to care about its people and that is something I really admire. Although I am sure every place has its problems, I know it would be a trade off... this problem for that. But I would like to see the problems I would be facing there... as I know the problems I have here.

Thanks
