Whether the US is still a superpower - I'm in no position to argue on the matter - it looks rather crippled, what's with its massive debt which even the in-country people are aware of to a great extent (which is to say, it's not a typical Russian anti-US propaganda piece of which there are plenty at the time). Why do you dislike the US? Why do you dislike Russia? Is there something you dislike in Canada as strongly as you do things in the aforementioned countries? I hope to attain at least some contacts while I study because my field of education has to do with languages and translation. And no, I study in TSU; TUSUR is near, I go by the thing often enough. I have my eyes set on either the US, Britain or Germany at the moment, given that my second language is German (and I might learn some more with time). As far as I know, Vladimir Pozner - a prominent Russian journalist - maintains both his Russian and US' citizenship (possibly French, too); I'm not aware of anyone else doing so, though.
