Does TX accept Canadian refugees ?

Rgds, D.

They've talked of seceding and becoming their own nation again. When that happens they probably will need more citizens.

The better question is, Does Canada accept Texan refugees?

After their last major power outage in TX, I don't expect that many would want to try Winter up here nord of the 49'th ! That said, Roxham Road is likely back to normal by now....

I was in Houston once when they had an "ice storm" (their words). Puzzled the _____ out of me, until I figured out they were talking about a few rain-puddles on the ground that froze over.

^ Fall weather up here, not long after Halloween most years..... why I still like hydrocarbons......

No, but I heard just walking across the southern boarder is . . . .
In the 90s Houston was recruiting Canadian nurses, and a lot came down, they were good but they talked funny.

GM Experiencing An Increasing Amount Of V8 Engine Valve Lifter Issues

It seems to me the move to EVs is actually due to ICE technology ageing out perhaps?

I have a friend that is 64 who has been wrenching since he was 8-10 years old.

His take is to meet ever increasing tailpipe emissions standards all of the recirculation efforts is leaving deposits to build up in valve trains.

Maybe GM and others are deciding to ditch ICE's early to prevent costly recalls and legal cases?

EPA Can't Let “Off-Cycle” Credits Become Off-Ramp For Automakers

Sounds like a mess.
