What's Wrong In Canada?

(This article appeared in yesterday’s Washington Free Beacon. I’m just including the opening and a link to the story. There is no paywall for the full article.)

Like many Americans, I have a lot of affection for Canada. My stepmother was a Canadian, and she embodied a lot of what makes Americans fond of our northern neighbors. She was polite, intelligent, cultured, and conscientious.

But these days something is not right up there. How do I know this?

All you have to do is look at some simple statistics. Last year, roughly 150,000 Americans chose to leave the United States. Canada has more exact statistics on emigration. It says that 120,640 Canadians left Canada. The numbers aren't so different. But the United States has eight-and-a-half times as many people. So, if the United States had the same rate of emigration, we would be losing close to 1.3 million people each year. That's more than live in Boston and Miami combined.
