If I thought for a second they'd hire a Canadian, I would apply in a heartbeat. I was in Albuquerque for a couple of days in April and I thought it was a fantastic city.

 

Can Canadians not work in the U.S. without special papers?

 

Journalism is not one of the NAFTA trades. The editor would have to prove he/she cannot find an American equally as qualified and able to do the job.
It would be a lot easiser if I could just find some poor Yankee sap to marry me.

 

Wow. Did not know that.

 

And it's the same problem situation with American journalists going north.

 

This is true. I did actually ask my boss about hiring someone out of country and he said it would be too much hassle.

 

Lovely part of the country. If only it had baseball. :-\

 

What's wrong with the Isotopes?

 

ZING!

 

Go Cannons.

 

I will always be bitter against the Cannons. They spolied the 1995 Dukes' chance to win the first-half title. ABQ lost to Calgary on the last day of the first half. Chan Ho Fucking Park got shelled. This was when the Cannons were in last place. Dammit.
