No joke- moving to Canada. Arrwngements are already made. We live 2-3 hours away as it is, so it wouldn’t be a huge change for us.

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago (2 children)

But at the same time, it also will be a huge change. You'll be reading about things happening in another country.

Right? Hopefully it won’t have to happen, but if America is willing to elect a twice impeached rapist that’s got almost 40 criminal indictments- then I have no intention remain a part of it.

A country only 2-3 hours away, which is not far enough...

Canada has oil, so either they will join the fascists or be subjugated by them.

In this case I am inclined to think it's a good thing, being able to move to another country, that's only 2 - 3 hours away. Even if it's technically the same thing, someone moving from Miami to the same city, would culturally feel like moving to another part of the world.

Same here. No healthcare, gun control, college, homes. For being the supposed “Best country on Earth “ it sure does suck ass.
