Hello George,

>LL>Well, there don't seem to be many Aussies running away from Australia...

GP>How many are in Australia because they love it, and think it's the best
GP>place to live?

Kangaroos love it.  And crocodiles, too.  ;)

GP>How many are in Australia because they happened to be born into
GP>citizenship there, and have no legal claim to live anywhere ELSE,
GP>even if they wanted to?

Such an accident of birth is seen by most Aussies as being a blessing.

GP>(which question could be asked of any country & its citizens!)

Not many Americans want to live anywhere else but in America.  Unless
they have lots of money, in which case Mexico becomes very attractive.

GP>It used to be that any citizen of any country in the British
GP>Commonwealth have an automatic right/privilege to move to any other
GP>member country of the Commonwealth -- but no longer! :(

Are you sure?

I know a Canadian citizen who moved to New Zealand, and then to
Australia, his Kiwi girlfriend moving with him to Australia, and
then she moving back to New Zealand for a new boyfriend.  Both
had no problem moving about and finding new jobs.

From what I understand, it is easier for Brits to move about
rather than others.  But all have the same equal rights?
