I came to the USA from Canada in 1990 as an RN during a significant nursing shortage. By 1992 I had my Perminent Resident status (Green Card) and started flight training shortly after.18 years later I am still a Canadian citizen and though I cannot vote, I still do not want to change my citizenship. I still occasionally get the "you are taking jobs from Americans" yet I have faithfully paid my taxes and have helped to save the lives of more than a few Americans. This country was built on legal immigration, and it is what continues to make it great.
