Randy Quaid denied Canadian permanent resident status.
What is wrong with those Canadians? Why won’t they take fine, upstanding citizen Quaid off our hands? He is trying to evade the “Hollywood star-whackers” who are out to get him! This could be a matter of life-and-death!

So THAT’s why my daughter’s residency took so long to be approved. All their people were working on the Quaid application!

I don’t see this ending well. No telling what Quaid will do when he’s forced to return. Isn’t there some charges against him for breaking into a house? I think they broke back into a house they had sold and lived there awhile. Some crazy stuff.
Found the news story. I think these charges are still pending.

I’ll be damned, me too!! Are Quaid’s anxieties sending off some weird atmospheric pheremones that are so powerful they can be detected all the way from Canada? If so, ewwwww.

Let that be a lesson to all you other actors hunted by “Hollywood star-whackers.” You’ll get no preferential treatment here. We sympathize, but need to keep our doors open to hockey players and pipeline welders.
