but oif I may bring up a point.

"He would have to pay the high Canadian tax He would have to go through the very costly horrors of US exit tax to give up his US citizenship or if he opts to be dual he would reported to the IRS by Canadian banks what he has in them."

Well, if the chan ge you spoke about was done, would he NOT have that problem, or have less of it? I know there are tax havens, but very few of them in countries that are close to the US.

" This is true freedom and also encourages commerce, real capitalism. "

How? By allowing people to keep their money in one country and influence another?
