I think the biggest thing for me that I miss is the people. The salt of the earth kind, the kind that would do anything for anybody. I love the Northern humour you know anything for a laugh humour.
For you locals would you move if it was an option and for those that have moved away do you regret it.
No regrets ... none whatsoever .... I've been in Canada for 42 years, and even tho' I must admit that it's not perfect, I don't think it gets any better than it does in this country. Look at it like this; we don't have a long storied past, though we haven't done bad for a country which was born in 1867, and which came of age in April 1917, but we do have a future. I'm proud of my heritage; I have fond memories of Clayton and area; but I'm Canadian .... will never be anything else now .... and consider myself damn lucky to be a Canadian.
