Exodus
Alias Vision
For over three years I have called Canada home. They say change is never easy and I find that to be true.
I am not the first to leave Canada recently and if you thought you knew why I have made this decision you would likely be right... partly anyways.
I am making this choice because of some of the decisions that have been made recently. Decisions based on a public debate to which I have contributed a little but one which I confess I consciously avoided as much as possible. I am also making this choice based on what I perceive to be the maturity level of those that have controlled the debate. We have been given a glimpse through the looking glass and what gives pleasure to some is meaningless to me. I take no pleasure in trolling individuals or groups, I take no pleasure in destroying. I do want and need to invest myself into something and I have come to the conclusion that those energies may be better served elsewhere. At least for now.
Some will want to frame this into a black and white, winners and losers debate. Let them, they are wrong. In this New World where options and choices are whittled down to their lowest common denominator, there is one thing that can never be revoked. Your right to choose where you wish to put your effort. If your current home nation is making you question your time, frustrates or angers you... you will leave. Sometimes change is good. This is one of those times for me.
That is how I come to you. The US has been many times our greatest ally and closest friend. As similar as we have been, we are also quite different. To me the country is an unknown, a somewhat intimidating unknown whose size I don't understand yet. A country whose position and influence in the New World is completely alien to my small nation mindset.
In others words, many potential challenges and lots of potential discovery.
My Canadian past is one of politics but more importantly (to me) participation in the media. Recently I had started a series of surveys and accompanying analysis that generated a lot of positive feedback. With time perhaps I can find similar niches in this new community.
If not, I can always re-invent myself. That is after all what change is all about.

I wish you well on your journey of discovery!
I will always look to your wisdom, you are one of the best writers in the game.
Good luck in your new elife 🙂
o7 & good luck in your new elife
I find it interesting what Rolo and his goons were able to accomplish in such a short amount of time. I have been watching closely over the last 6 months and I shouted to Rolo a number...and he had no idea what that number meant...That number was how many eCanadians there were on that day...since that day we have seen the number of eCanadians rise and fall...and today that number is now lower than that number shouted 6 months ago...I guess my prediction was correct, but who listens to the crazy man? It will get worse before it gets better, the only thing we can hope for is that those of us who care about eCanada will be around when Rolo and Wally get banned or quit the game...Time changes everything if given enough of it... We will miss you Alias Vision as we will miss so many who have moved before you...
I am leaving ecanada, I hate the corruption, slander and the New World Order. Is rolo little Hitler? I am leaving so I can defend my alias more effectively.
Thanks for the good times.
This game is so stupid now, it is not worth the effort of righteous indignation.
Say what you want about Rolo, but we all know who the real enemy is.
"small nation mindset"
You've never been to the ePhilippines, have you?
eCanada grows stronger by the day!
So Alias will you be joining the other e😜ats in tanking against us as well?
Just curious if you're going to try and claim that moral highground?
I will miss your writing however...good luck!
I have always respected your articles and observations Alias, I hope I see more of them while we are all in the USA.
i will not fit for or against. i am still an ecanadian at heart but you must clean up ecanada's image.
You will be missed AV.
A Rock solid eCanadian Prime Minister who led us in a tough time with honour and determination. Your term as Prime Minister can be summed up most by the knowledge that you were honest, forthcoming and fair. Some would say that makes for a boring time, but there must always be a calm after a storm.
And the beat goes on.
Take a bow, all those who thought granting an unconditional pardon to the thief was a step forward for the team.
😁😁😁This😁😁😁
I wonder if Crisfire and Homer still stand by there decision that they blindly walked into. Pure stupidity.

It is not leaving when all you do is care, and comment about what is happening here. It's more like getting a divorce but forgetting about the move out part.
Not to forget the great sacrifice you are making to obtain higher economic bonuses. It is all I can do to hold back the tears.
Thanks for putting up with my constant pestering! Good luck in the eUS! o/

Welcome to America, Canadian refugees.
our Media is sorely lacking. I hope you bring competency and intellect with you, and will contribute these to American media and politics.
the White House Press Room (the official government newspaper) is always looking for Guest Writers. feel free to drop me a game mail.
I can't believe I missed AV's exodus article.
Is it too late to say you will be much missed?
