Holy. Fucking. Shit. That’s bad. That’s oppressively stupid fucking bad.
Hey Americans: Don’t want to be oppressed or live in a fascist state? Immigrate to Canada! We’re hella friendly and open to people’s of all kinds, except MAGAs and Nazis and or maga-nazis
If only it was that easy...
Hmm. You all raise a good point. As Canadians, I think we need to make it easier for Americans to immigrate here.
We need to experience and expertise and we need to learn how to expedite that to bring the right people here to help expand Canadas capabilities.
Canadians, how to we make this happen? I have zero knowledge how to make this happen.
You guys seem to have a very open asylum policy. Give it a few years and a lot of Americans might qualify without you doing anything else.
For real I'm not even allowed in that country for a crime I committed 20 years ago.
I mean, y'all gonna let me in? I need a place to crash for at least 4 years.
I would move up there next week if it was that easy and didn't mean probably losing my awesome job. Oh, and it might be a bit disruptive for my family, too.
I was going to say, “no, stay and fight”, but on second thought I agree with this sentiment for more vulnerable groups like trans folks
I'm moving to Sweden but I'll be stopping by your way first! I'm too trans to let tsa look at my passport so I'm going to land travel to you all and take a plane out from there
Good luck at the border.
Unless things have changed significantly at the border in the past few years, there's no process to leave the US. It's just the Canadian border guard checking things as you enter their country.
Of course, if the GOP decides to fully enact Operation: Handmaid's Tale, then that could change.
Give us places to stay, welcome us, and offer us work and we'll gladly come
I’m still happy with Massachusetts, but my company is based in UK and we have an office outside Toronto. The road is paved
Toronto is the one city that everything else being even I think I might like to live more than where I am at.
Ha, if only that was an actual possibility. Most Americans will not qualify for immigration to Western countries.
I'd also hold off on thinking you'll be safe. Poilievre might be unpopular now, but there's a lot of time between now and the election. It's not a slam dunk for Liberal, fascism can absolutely still rise in your country too.
Besides a province or two.
Eh...
We're not a consolation prize, they've let shit get fucked in their country for decades.
Yeah. You’re absolutely right, but there’s still a ton of good Americans that Canada could utilize to help us build our industry that we need.
We need more than just exploited real estate in this country, and I’m sure a ton of Americans could help us make that happen at an accelerated level.
I’d much prefer to take in Americans that are disenfranchised with their country, than have a disenfranchised country try and turn us into a new Guam.
