Becoming American?

I live in Canada (Toronto). I would like know what are the steps to take to become a resident of USA. Is it the same steps as a resident of the overseas would have to take?, or is it different for Canadian's.

Answer:
Hey man, check it out, I'm in same situation but just a little different. I'm an American trying to become a Canadian. No doubt, becoming an American is a little more difficult than trying to become a Canadian. So you have my sympathy, haha. But the immigration process is basically the same for both countries. And despite what some may say you will have an extremely easier time because you are Canadian. Do this- take a trip to the states, find a place you like (may I suggest Duluth Minnesota), arrange a prospective job if you can (immigration officers love high income potential, so if you have it your on easy street), then simply go to the local courthouse and simply ask them "I'm Canadian and want to be an American". It's that easy. They'll give you all of the information you need from work visas to J1 waivers. Good Luck.
this Q smells fishy to me. i'm not buying it paco..
As American poodles, you would expect better treatment, but you don't. Its the same as that for Somalis.
US immigration law is the worst in the world. Answer is NO. Stay were you are cause you wont make it here.
Why bother, as soon as our govt gives our country away to mexico you probably won't want to come
