I am assuming the author and his wife are both Canadian citizens. If he moved to the U.S. in year 3, and his wife a year later, I wonder how the guy has retired (without moving back to Canada)? He got his green card in 4 years or less? Not likely. Did he already have it? Also, if he was on H1 visa, it's very unlikely (if possible at all) to become less-than-full-time worker (as he did in year 8) in this status. Lots of questions..

I'm not terribly knowledgeable in this area, but this was pre 9/11, where I imagine it was much much easier to obtain a green card/citizenship, especially from a friendly country like Canada.
