Sounds more like theft than eviction- <BR/>I heard something about this awhile back n also that Baja California people wanted to form their own state or country government to get away from the Mexican tyranny.

I don't know if I'd ever thought of it in those terms, but Mexico is definitely somewhere I'd avoid in general.Dale Challener Roehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04605721172822135196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12285157.post-30796508654802500172009-02-21T14:37:00.000-08:002009-02-21T14:37:00.000-08:00We might lack enchiladas, cervesas and tequilla, b...We might lack enchiladas, cervesas and tequilla, but we make up for it with maple syrup and bison burgers.<BR/><BR/>Go Canada!<BR/><BR/>C.<BR/><BR/>ps.

It's never been a country on my list to visit though and now it certainly won't be!<BR/><BR/>By the way, the pub scenes seem about accurate but only teenage girls wear mini skirts on the whole!

Indeed, many of the movies also feature (a) US criminals escaping across the border. (b) drug related crime syndicates. (c) olden days lawlessness (d) quaint clothes and spanish sounding music.<BR/><BR/>So I'm badly informed and can't add much. And I know the equivalent British movies probably have smog/fog, bowler hats and groovy mini coopers.rashbrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01138427049001650099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12285157.post-83757898697483407592009-02-21T08:18:00.000-08:002009-02-21T08:18:00.000-08:00Hi David.

On the one hand the country is our neighbor, but on the other, it raises a lot of issues. You've definitely given me something to think about for the day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
