Actually, there's not much to debate about their first unlawful act — entering the United States without authorization — but much disagreement about how many illegal border crossers commit crimes after that.
Once again, a lesson from across the border. Not universal health care; the Canadian system is a disaster and access to a family doctor is as elusive as a Stanley Cup in Toronto, whose Maple Leafs haven't won hockey's ultimate crown in 57 years. Not euthanasia; the Canadian Medical Assistance in Dying option is a step too far for the United States, a country that can't even agree on when life begins. Not even poutine; a nation where 39.6% of adults are considered obese doesn't need to add beef gravy and cheese curds to its lunchtime routine.
DEAR HARRIETTE: As a recent graduate student, the prospect of applying for jobs fills me with a great deal of anxiety, especially because of my struggles with stage fright and a tendency to stutter when faced with questions. These challenges have left me feeling uncertain about how to navigate the job application process effectively and improve my interview performance. I am seeking guidance on strategies to overcome my nerves and manage my stage fright.
