I’d be curious to see how many are actually expatriating to Canada right now from the US.
Whenever anyone left of The Homelander gets elected to office, there are waves of conservatives screaming about leaving the USA all over the internet and also getting on local news and shit, and the problem with this narrative from the right is that if they want to go somewhere further right than the US already is, they would have to go to somewhere like Russia… which is exactly what a couple did, ending predictably. The rest are too chickenshit to actually move to a place that doesn’t have the comforts liberal democracy has given them.
But shit, Canada is a fantastic option if you’re trying to escape things like being sent to the frontline of a trench war and think that you shouldn’t be killed in the street for not having your papers, and they’re just a snowy fenceline away for thousands of miles. Is Carney drafting plans for a mass immigration?
If he gets too many US refugees, will he have to make his own ICE to round up American immigrants? Can I at least ask my Canadian brothers up there to make sure it’s named ICE ICE BABY?

The unfortunate thing with voters is that those most able to emigrate don’t vote Conservative; so all they can do is wonk at the press. When the lefties - typically better educated, as per the stats - want to emigrate, they actually have a chance.
Even more against conservative expatriates is the fact that they’re conservative to begin with is because they’re scared of change and new cultures and experiences, and expatriating anywhere would terrify them, they would never be able to navigate the requirements, background checks and interviews and even tests that often come with immigrating legally to another country.
But many progressives have traveled the world, are educated and unafraid of integrating into new cultures and having new experiences. I’ve been all over Asia and even know people who would take me in and give me a room and a job if I showed up on their door they’re so warm and friendly to someone willing to do things like be quiet and listen and try new foods and learn and take off their shoes entering a stranger’s house.
The only way conservatives seem comfortable in foreign lands is when they’re already wealthy so they can join some gated community of equally horrible people like the weird stories of gentrified neighborhoods in Mexico that are increasing. And the fact that so many of the people who enabled ICE in our country are retiring in Mexico speaks volumes that few people will ever read into.
Carney should send some kind of delegation down there. You know…nothing official. Just to “talk”.

It would be funny if all the US emigrants ended up in Alberta and didn’t wanted to be again in the US.

I’d like to see stats too, obviously.

No. We’re not criminals.
