Send me up to the ISS. I’ll keep the dudes stranded up there company until this whole thing blows over. And if WW3 happens, I’ll be safe.
Don’t come to Canada. We don’t have enough housing for the people already here. Most of you will die of exposure during your first winter here.
Go to Mexico instead. I’m sure they’ll take you.
Well with Trump in power, factoring in the accelerated climate change ppl may be ok in winter.
Canada talking a lot of good shit in posts like this lately. Don’t get me wrong, I grew up near the border and I love Canada, but don’t pretend it’s not just a handful of resource extraction companies stacked in a trench coat pretending to be a country.
We rank above the US is virtually every metric. Education. Healthcare. Life expectancy. Lower infant and maternal mortality. Standard of living. Quality of life. Safety. Religious freedom. Personal freedom. Better place to do business. Better place to headquarter a business. Better beer. Maple syrup.
But by all means, keep telling yourself whatever you need to tell yourself to get through the day.
Lies all lies! Canadian people don’t have culture! Have you ever heard anyone hey let’s stay in tonight and order candian!
They have threatening lead on Zamboni technology!
To be fair, other countries want US citizens even less than the US wants* immigrants.
Do people actually think that the US is alone in anti-immigration sentiment? Do they think it’s different because they’re American?
The US is the one with a giant monument to immigration, at whose feet is a plaque that reads:
Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!
And if they, of all people, are now against that, what makes Americans think anyone else will want them? It’s delusional.
Many countries shut down immigration to Americans in 2016, after the first round of trump’s policies, and they haven’t opened back up yet, partly because there was a solid chance of this happening again.
???
It’s easy as piss to emigrate from America as long as you:
Are white, middle class, not provably disabled, not gay, with no criminal history, with at least one million in assets, as long as you don’t have a history of activism, already are hired by a local company, and have a STEM degree.
See?
Easy.
I checked out Canadian requirements. The first stage of screening asks your name, email and year of birth - which only goes back to 1970. So apparently I’m too old.
Hey, that’s not entirely fair. Russia is more than happy to accept Americans, so long as they’re willing to be cannon fodder for a while. I’m pretty sure they’re not even putting an age limit on it. If you survive, you may even get a small flat afterwards. And if you don’t, they may give your parents money for a Lada (providing they were Russian citizens already).

Canada’s gonna swing the same way next year so you’re not really escaping from anything anyways
Already swung super anti-immigration as of earlier this year, so the move to Canada plan isn’t going to be as easy either
Yeah the Trump win is only gonna help conservatives…I really hate them and their leader, but Trudeau has shit the bed for so long that people are just sick of him
The Liberals are admittedly a stale 3 day old cheap deli sandwich. People want something warm, fresh, and organic. Conservatives check all of those boxes.
Too bad it’s horseshit.
Skippy will axe the carbon tax which honestly will make people like him enough to ignore some of the… other things he will do. That will lower prices of everything, maybe not to the levels of the beforetime because corpos won’t let that free profit disappear but it will make life easier for many.
Do you think that this is an import from the US kind of thing, or more of a global trend?
Don’t worry. He’ll be coming for Canada. You already have MAGA lovers up there. Who’s going to stop him? The Canadian military?
It already well on it’s way depending on your province. People have moved out of Quebec because of the intolerance going on there. Hell, I know a streamer who moved because someone threw a fucking brick through their window at his wife who moved there from the USA. Not because she’s black or colored either, because she’s white as a piece of paper.
