Canadians worry U.S. democracy cannot survive Trump's return to White House, poll finds
About two-thirds of Canadians surveyed this month said American democracy cannot survive another four years of Donald Trump in the White House, and about half said the United States is on the way to becoming an authoritarian state, a poll released on Monday said.

Can you imagine. Americans fleeing their country as political refugees to prevent getting assassinated. Why this is the future my parents chose is beyond my understanding. Luckily I live just 20 minutes away from Canada and they like me there.
I and my family left the USA for Canada last year, not because of Trump necessarily, but the possibility of him being reelected certainly did not slow us down. Even though it has been absurdly cold the last week, so far I regret nothing about the move. I could have just left the Big City for a small one in the US, but finding one of those that is not Trumpy would be a challenge. Instead we moved to BC and it is astoundingly beautiful. I marvel at its beauty every day and I hope I never stop.
Welcome home, American cousins!
Thanks cuz! I was slightly concerned that people might be resentful of us but so far everyone has been kind and welcoming. I am Canadian already (dual citizen) thanks to my Mom being from Toronto and hopefully the wife/kids will be Permanent Residents by spring. Bureaucracy is fairly efficient here but that is still means slow.
When I hear efficient and Canadian gov(especially immigration related) together it genuinely surprise my until I know we are comparing it to US.
Nah you're 100% welcome in Canada. We are glad you're here.
Sure, they like you when they know you'll leave soon. I like when my family visits too.
