US vote boosts interest in Canada

BBC News

Canadian immigration officials said the number of US citizens visiting their website went up six-fold the day after the US election.

Their website, which on an average day has some 20,000 hits, was visited by 115,016 on Wednesday, Reuters news agency reported.

The figure dropped on Thursday but was still higher than normal, at 65,803.

There was speculation that Democrats fed up with George W Bush's win were thinking of moving over the border.

1. Is there any way that Canada will reconsider their

treaty with the U.S.A.? The U.S. government breaks their treaties all the time. Why should any nation not do the same to them?
