I’ve looked into it, believe me. New Zealand too. My wife is too rooted to our house, and we have an adult daughter still living at home with medical problems that would probably disqualify her.
Immigration in most developed countries is stricter than the US. And we all know the US’s immigration restrictions are insane.
It’s not much better over here anyways, anti trans laws and oil industry dick sucking is ramping up more than ever.
I’d ask “what have trans people ever done to anyone” but you could ask the same of any minority they harass (Facism needs a target)
Seems like it’s only going to get worse, too.

Draft dodging?
Jokes on you, I’m too fat and mentally ill to be in the military anyways.
Yes, the joke is clearly on me.
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?
Sure, but there’s also half of your countrymen to think about
True. Trump does not hold a monopoly on suck.
But he does have a monopoly on his fan base. Hopefully the hamburder in his veins requires a scramble for a new king and none of his court can agree who should have the crown and the crowd rejects them anyway.
Like 20% at best, the shitlibs have this coming.
Canada is just america but 5-10 years behind on the crazy policies. It really isn’t any better and cost of living is often higher than in america.
This is simply not true. Did America have universal medicine 5-10 years ago? Subsidized education? Abortion and trans rights? Refugee policies? The only country in America attempting to highlight the genocide in Gaza?
Seems to me americans love to say Canada is americas retarded cousin (quoting tucker carlson) because it makes them feel better, but it’s simply not true.
Don’t move here. We have a bad enough housing crisis without a bunch of Americans showing up to take up homes and jobs. Stay in your country and fix your damn mess
You’re right, you’re right.
That’s why the Northern states should just secceed and join Canada.
I remember that being said by the Hitlers (normal people but had the no longer so nice last name) about changing last name.
If only they had stuck with it, who would have thought Hitler would come back in style again?

I love the assumption that other countries would just take American emigrants.
It’s a shit ton harder than people realize… well at least to go anywhere in the industrialized world. Unless you are independently wealthy or have an extremely high demand job.
Billy Bob who’s career is working at McDonalds isn’t going to get approved.
have an extremely high demand job.
I’m banking on this actually. My specialties are, and my wife’s is as well. So I’m reaching out to companies I know with a presence to see what my options are where I’d like to go, and decide from there. I doubt we will be the only ones though, so we’ll see what that ends up looking like.
The only up side is I’m in a very niche specialty with broad experience, have contacts on both sides of the work I do.
I think I’m in a better position than most, and I still think its going to be an uphill battle.
I’m considering applying for asylum to Ireland
Lol, good luck with that one.
Safety?
If it gets bad I actually will move to Canada, I’m a dual citizen
Hey there sailor.
Wanna get gay married?
You can outlive this. There’s a good chance he can’t. Be strong, and look out for those more vulnerable than yourself.
Oh boy, President JD ‘couch enthusiast’ Vance!
My concern is that the train is still running at full speed even if the driver has died of a heart attack.
I’ve been looking for silver linings. The two I’ve found are:
-
Trump probably won’t live to see the end of his term. Dude is old and not exactly healthy. One could argue Vance taking his place would be worse, but I’m choosing to focus on the positives here.
-
Trump winning very likely prevented a civil war. I know a ton of people who had been stocking up on supplies and weapons. Again, one could argue giving these people the keys to the kingdom probably wasn’t the smartest move, but again I’m trying to focus on the positives.
I think he’s the devil and he’ll never die. I wouldn’t count on him dying. In my experience really poisonous people live a long time.
It’s not like there was an assassination attempt during his rise to power and he survived with a headwound or anything like that, right?
He is basically line for line the biblical antichrist. That’s infinitely funny to me.
this is honestly the thing that’s getting me to question my atheism.
Hey, quit shitting on my silver lining. I choose to believe he’ll die soon due to Macdonald’s induced heart failure and you can’t take that hope away from me!
Agreed on both points. The second means today is safer although Project 2025 spells danger ahead.
As for Trump, his physical deterioration and dementia and just general chaos of intentions are more of a check on him accomplishing evil than anything legal or political. When he runs the economy completely off the rails will it spark anything in the midterms? Will his Cabinet change every week? How long until he “never met” Elon?
So we draw breath, and persevere.
Maybe the left will start the civil war. Then again, they wouldn’t even get out to vote, so.
The right was unified behind their belief that the election was stolen from Trump, and wanted him put back in power.
The left can’t agree on leadership at all, and doesn’t think this election was any more stolen than it was in 2000/2016.

Stay strong people!
WeMost of us* survived the last Trump presidency, we got this.Gaza won’t survive. Ukraine likely won’t survive.
American democracy’s survival is questionable at best.
I’m not saying ‘give up’. But we also have to recognize the magnitude of the impact this election is going to have. And many people who stay here despite everything are going to have their lives at risk.
All empires fall. This is just our turn. That isnt the scary part. The scary part is how failing empires often lash out militarily on the way out. And this one has nukes.
in simple words. We’re fucked.
American democracy? already dead. we have already slipped into constitutional oligarchy territory
Well, then kick him out. Or maybe guillotine him out, so that he doesn’t return.
Like, if people were actually that irked that he won, they’d be doing something. But no, from what I hear El Trumpo actually won the popular vote: the US wants to be fascist. Maybe Canada too. (No, not as in the US wants to be Canada… although that’d be an improvement…)
So far, it’s only been his supporters trying to kill him. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I’m concerned that there is no doubt this is what America wants.
…What, being like Canada? 👀
