These threads are fucking awful and you should be ashamed of yourself. I will answer your questions and dole out wisdom until get tired and go to sleep.

When will you join Canada? Some of your neighbors are mulling the idea of joining us.
>>
>>74516736

No. Why would we want to join the land of bad "French", snow, and apologies?

We're quite content as a self governing British colony.
>>
>>74516831
Because we can be an empire again or some gay shit. Fuck it, just join the americans. You are already niggers anyway.

Do you consider yourself and your culture British?
>>
>>74517071

You seem upset. I'd be a ball of passive rage too if I'd been raised on French fries and gravy. You poor thing.
>>
>>74517167

Yes. But no English/Welsh/Northern Irish and certainly not Scottish. We hold a unique identity as Bermudian which includes being British.

The first use of the word Bermudian as distinct from British goes back almost 350 years to the early years of the colony and a large portion of the island's population trace their ancestry back more than 200 years.

Oh, sweetheart. You may think the French were killed off but at the end of the day they run your country which is why you can't go have some nice fried chicken at KFC like the rest of us in the free world.

We need a warm place to vacation and you can come ski here. Plus we're not real french. We don't eat stinky cheese, only poutine and drink beer instead of wine.

We don't even have to fly over the bermuda triangle to visit each other, so it's safe.

>>74517702

Sadly the prevailing wind in the Summer is from the South so the only habitable time of the year would require aircraft to take off and fly straight into the Bermuda Triangle.

I once went skiing at Tremblant and not only was the mountain name excessively French (no doubt much to the dismay of your angry countryman) but it was also -45C which is the temperature at which Freedom Units and Metric coincide.

Also, a Canadian girl once broke my heart and I hope she chokes on a soggy french fry. God Save The Queen.

During the Revolutionary War the gunpowder used by the Americans to protect Boston during the British siege was stolen from the British Army by Bermudian sympathisers and smuggled to the Americans. At the time the British Governor lamented that the island was full of revolutionary sympathisers.

However as would become a habit, the Bermudians played both sides and came out ahead while staying firmly British (as would again happen during the Civil War, Prohibition, and continues today in the realm of international business).

Hey Bermuda. I love this kind of thread, specially when it's run by a good poster.
How is the bermudian economy? Is the huge influx of tourists actually beneficial for the people or does it just raise prices? You said Bermuda has some social problems; care to elaborate?
>>
>>74522139

Hello Brazil.

Economy is just emerging from a long self-inflicted recession that was caused by poor local policymaking but coincided with the global financial crisis (sound familiar?).

Tourists make up a small portion of the total economy so there is little real impact on locals. Numerically most of our tourists come from the US on cruise ships and are probably on average poorer and with lower incomes than the the locals here.

Social problems in terms of struggling public schools, crime, drugs, etc. We also have real issues with multigenerational poverty and failing families which is a shameful problem to still have in such a wealthy country (top 5 in the world).
>>
>>74522347
How does the bermudian economy work?
I mean, it's a small country with a small population. Where does all that wealth come from?
>>
>>74516635
Hello, Bermuda. I'd like to know if you want to be friends. I apologize for the Chinese immigrants being so rude to you. They get carried away very easily.
>>
>>74522678

1. International business (reinsurance).
2. Investment income from overseas investments made by local individuals/businesses.
3. Tourists.
>>
>>74522139
Infrastructure problems (mold in buildings and the kids), roads can have tons of potholes and the public projects to fix them can have budgeting problems

Recently we have had more armed and daylight robberies, and more countries are trying to gang up and pander on the whole tax haven nonsense.

Medical services are almost all private (requiring insurance), and often you may have to go overseas for some major surgeries

Economy has migrated from tourism income (hotels are trying to fill up again of course) towards international business. This has some controversy with the locals for job preferences.
>>
>>74522802

I could never truly trust a Canadian enough to become friends with one. It's impossible to know if the innate politeness and friendliness of a Canadian is the mark of true personal trust and friendship or simply a cultural norm.

I deal with the Chinese professionally and they are never rude and always professional.
>>
>>74522885

Crime is down quite significantly recently and the daylight robberies are almost certainly the work of literally two guys who have figured out a quick way to make a few hundred bucks.
>>
>>74523087
For sure. I'm hoping it stays that way too.
Wonder how long the police will take to catch the hooligans
>>
>>74523196

They will probably magically stop when the idiots get locked up for some unrelated crime. If there's one thing about Bermuda's criminals it's that they're always the same small group of guys and they are always stupid.
>>
>>74523003
Most people outside of Toronto, Montreal, and Vancouver are quite nice (especially in the eastern provinces), but in those cities, there are normally lots of people being just rude. Chinese immigrants in BC are normally aggressive to other immigrants from what I've seen.
>>
>>74523558

They're rude until you face them as a human being instead of an obstacle. If there's one thing above all else about Bermudian culture it's that we are able to welcome people and make them feel at ease... so perhaps this has helped me always find cities to be friendly places.
>>
I'm going to bed.

Goodnight, I love you all.
>>
>>74523558
What's the story behind chinese immigration to the major Canadian cities? I've been seeing more asians lately on our island than before, guess they love moving around
>>
>>74524224
Goodnight midnight Bermuda OP
>>
>>74524225
Most of the young chinese investors/entrepreneurs are moving to other countries to start a business or for better work. A lot of them go to Canada because we've got an economy that can be easily entered and because it's close to the US and China.
>>
>>74524616
Not surprised, immigration here is fairly tight and obtaining full status (and voting) is nearly impossible unless you were born here with a Bermudian parent at the minimum.

I bet a lot of our canadian workers will be waiting a while to see how their currency goes before returning or converting their salaries, since our dollar is pinned to the USD
