Today, Huffygirl, author of Huffygirl’s Blog, announced that Huffygirl’s Blog is moving to Canada. “While some might suppose that Huffygirl’s Blog is moving to Canada purely to take advantage of tax reductions, that is not the case” announced Huffygirl today on her blog. “Canada is a lovely county which is clearly underrepresented in the blogging world. By moving my blog to Canada, while maintaining my US presence as well, Canadians will have greater representation, and therefore, greater power in the blogging community.”
Some critics have suggested that Huffygirl’s Blog may become changed, and less American with this move to Canada. To these critics, Huffygirl replies “I don’t know what that is aboot. Huffygirl’s Blog will retain its American flavor despite its new Canadian location, and remain exactly the same, eh.”

So, did or are YOU moving to canada?
Well, just my blog for now…
Apparently from your reply you are considering,, or already planning to move to Canada!!! Why?
Well, they do have those tax advantages. After all, look at Burger King.
Are you taking your hubby with you when you move to Canada?
Well, I’m taking Best Husband, so if you are he, you’ll get to go. After all, BH is frequently the star of my posts, and I do believe, is also part Canadian.
Hm! I am not sure there is any perfect place to live on this earth!!! There will always be something we don’t like.
Maybe you should take a closer look at the tags and category for this post 🙂
ok, i retract my previous comment. I stand corrected 🙂
It is not my day 🙂
Well, I think you are not the only reader to not look at the tags.
I rarely look at tags, because I don’t read with the idea that there is some mystery, or joke intended. 🙂
It’s probably not necessary to look at them all the time, but it helps with satire so you know where the story is coming from. As a hint, anytime you read anything on my blog that seems implausible or unreal, it is usually something I’ve satirized that has been in the recent news, such as Burger King’s announcement of moving their business to Canada for tax advantages.
Ha ha…
*shock* Migod, HG, no wonder you have been saving Canadian coins. I hafta tell you a toonie doesn’t buy as much as it did a year ago, eh? 😦 However, blog costs aren’t that much, and the HG Blog is a conservative one (sometimes). Watch out about using the words conservative and liberal too loosely here, since they are actually the names of two of the three main parties.
Also, my BH moved here from Minnesota and was horribly disappointed in a few things. One of them was that his lifelong love of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police was forever crushed when he found out that the Mounties could be just as corrupt as any other police force in the world. And (don’t breathe a word of this to anyone else) they don’t always get their man (or woman).
Still the air is clean in the rural areas and the sky is pretty blue and the highways are relatively clean and Canadians are still pretty polite. BH loves it here and is glad he came, but a few of his cherished dreams have disintegrated one by one into disillusionment. Canada is NOT heaven, but I have to say Medicare rocks!!*
(Both BH and I had surgery done this month. If we didn’t have Medicare, we would have had to pay for it, and we would be a LOT broker than we are. But then I doubt that the HG Blog will have many medical expenses that will require taking advantage of our [mostly] free healthcare.)

P.S. I will talk to my connections in Canada to see if we can make you an honourary Canadian. 😀
Sandra, so good to see your words. I was hoping you would weigh in for the Canadian response. I will be careful of my use of liberal and conservative, now that I’m also a Canadian blogger, eh, and request the honor of consulting with on all things Canadian. Except for the coins, and maple syrup, on which I have been a self-proclaimed expert, or at least hope I am after blogging about them.
And honorary (or honourary as I now must spell it) citizenship would be a grand delight and an honour.
🙂
Ha! Don’t forget free health care, I mean maintenance, for the blog.
Yes, that is a very important part of the move to Canada, besides the tax breaks. Of course, none of that is the real reason I’m moving though 🙂 It’s all for the honor, er honour of Canada.
As a new subscriber to your blog, just to make certain I can enjoy the different flavor (or should I say flavour?) your blog will have now, I have bookmarked http://www.tourcanada.com/comedy.htm so I do not misunderstand. We Texans can be a bit denser than those living closer to our Northern border neighbors!
Oh, my, being Canadian is going to be harder than I thought. After living so close to them all these years, I thought I knew enough, but now, I’m not sure. Thanks for subscribing. Now I am wondering if there is a similar site for Texas I really don’t know much about your state and want to be sure I’m understanding everything 🙂
Actually, I did a search for a decent Texas slang cheat sheet. Most of the ones I found from Universities were a bit off, but Yes’am, I did find one for you to use if you want to share it around, y’all will be sounding like Texans afore you know it! http://moon.com/2014/01/texas-slang-and-twang-how-to-talk-like-a-texan/
I even decided that I am gonna put one together since there are so few accurate ones on the web. hanks for the idea!
Thanks I’ll check it out.
Bravo. Moving takes courage.
