Relocating ain't that bad BlackCrayon - you are lucky if ya got Canadian citizenship - they don't chase you the world over.

Normally it's not a problem since most countries are same as Canada in this respect and there is no need to give up citizenship etc - just relocate and be a foreign resident.

The US "problem" is kinda unique in that roughly only three other countries are like it (mainly Arabic/Muslim) where they reckon ya were unfortunate enough to have been born there - you are owned for life and need to conform to their laws whether you live there or not.

US folks can do a "half measure" and host abroad etc, but doubt that would stand up if shit hit the fan - they are still subject to the laws of the country in which they reside.
