I am working on getting the info needed together to apply for citizenship. My sister is also. They, Canada, have greatly eased up their qualifications to apply. I will be doing so in the next few weeks, if only as an option should the shit really hit the fan. This fall’s election should be telling in many respects. Will it happen, be fair, and get the results that I/we are hoping for.
