[@Davesunflower]

i am a son of a Policeman, old school gentleman he was, a loving man to all and very fair, i met lots of rouges who hated the Police but remembered my Dad and liked him a lot. I was raised with morals and principles, but now nearly fifty i'm not sure who are the criminals anymore in society, quite sad really. Very sad.

When you have a criminal culture, and subculture, in any country you have these kinds of habits going on: everyone including Barkleys' Bank employees look the other way.

A) it's Barclays, not barkleys. B) the number of British people emigrating to Canada is pretty miniscule. It's also definitely not the first country of choice for British immigrants. If people do emigrate from the UK, places like Spain, France and Australia are much more popular than Canada.
