Shane, even YOU could become a member of the Idaho Legion and share in the free booze and smokes (of all sorts). You'd have to pass The Test, but it's not very hard. Being Canadian and hence not a "true-blue All-American citizen of the United States of America" you wouldn't have voting privileges, but the last vote was taken in 1953 and nobody was sober enough to vote so the issue was tabled and never brought up again (the issue was "Should we forgive the Canadians for Molsons or not?").

You would be personally responsible for protecting Canada, or at least Blind River, from attack. Usually the attacks come either from the Martians or the Canadians. You also have to be ready at all time to rescue beautiful women from Fates Worse Than Death and/or ride to the rescue of other Legionaires (there aren't any in Canada at the moment) or Bee-Dubya-Ell, whichever comes first.

The dues are subsidised, so it wouldn't cost you anything.

Let me know if you want to apply for membership and take The Membership Test.
