Just try not to use the word "succulent" in your explanation. He might freedom you on behalf of the animals.

If you want to be Canadianized you need to learn that Canada's national animal isn't the moose but the Beaver

Hi, fellow Michigander. If you get a dual-citizenship, do you get to keep both? I've wondered this for years.

Yes, as a dual citizen you hold two passports

You don't have to trade it, we have more bald eagles than America does they live in dumps and eat garbage. Bring him along.

As a Canadian, you wouldn't get a moose in return for your eagle but the choice between a beaver or a goose.

10 years ago | Likes 33 Dislikes 1

No, don't be ridiculous, a goose costs 3 eagles and a beaver costs 5

10 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

As a Canadian. that is correct

Ex-pat 'Muricans who have been Canadianized get a special moose adapter which is basically just a perch for your eagle that mounts
