Canada Welcomes You!
The idea of Michael Moore being an honourary Canadian citizen (via Neale) is absurd, but appealing for the following reasons:
The Americans won't miss him.
It's not like he's going to look out of place. Like many Canadians, Moore defines himself by being anti-American.
He'll have to pay higher taxes.
The bizarre thing is that a mayor thinks that he can offer Canadian citizenship to someone... ...and I thought Michael Moore was the crazy one.
UPDATE (Jul 14, 08:55 AM): Bob Tarantino isn't quite as enthusiastic as I am about the idea.
Comments:
Disagreeing with Bush or the right wing is not being «anti-american» whatever that hell that means. dissent should never be confused with hatred.

Geez.... ....if I'm suggesting that Michael Moore should become a Canadian citizen, you should realize I'm saying this with some degree of tongue-in-cheekness.
