Adam Gopnik lived out a certain Canadian fantasy. He left the country and became a prominent New York intellectual. He writes about the move in his new book, At the Stranger\'s Gate.

Gopnik is now a\\xa0staff writer at the New Yorker, where he writes about Canada \\u2014 like in\\xa0this profile of Michael Ignatieff or the recent piece, "We Could Have Been Canada."

He talks about how New York has changed, whether it still has anything to offer to dreamy exiles, and the bright side of Canada being run by a small pool of political elites. Jesse tries to keep up.
