Ok, I'll apply for a Green Card, then (will take a while, as sibling GCs take like forever). :)

We'll settle you in Lancaster County, PA.  You look exactly like all of the natives. :bowler:

Women want me. Men want to be with me.

I was actually able to find StatsCan demographic info for my neighbourhood (for 2006).  It lists 75% European ancestry, but 16% East Asian, and 7% South Asian.

Anecdotally I would have thought the East and South Asian umbers would be much higher than that.  It's a reasonably wealthy neighbofhood, but that has only attracted people from those communities.

I went to America once. But they sent me to Syria and I was tortured. :(

It seems there's a waiting period of ca. 12 years for siblings at the moment . . . :lol:

By that time I'm pushing 50, and my sister will be in her mid-60s.  :lol:

Yeah, it's a catch-22.  :(
