I suspect there aren't any CNA subscribers to this forum, but the ones I know seem happy enough in their pleasant compounds with enough salary to drive good quality cars and live well. Because of the (unusual here) tax situation mentioned above, CNAQ doesn't take non-Canadians. In fact I don't think they take non-Newfies. (I applied a couple of years ago and the cheeky buggers said I was under-qualified. What they meant was, I wasn't a Canuck.)
