Honestly, anybody that wants to non-jokingly leave because their guy didn't get elected should go jump off a cliff.

Get over yourself.

I'm thinking that virtually all the celebrities who thought they'd grab the spotlight and say they were moving if Trump wins, are not going to do a ****ing thing now that he's actually won.

They'll stay right where they are.

I would bet many of them live here and other places anyway; they aren't restricted like most of us by money.

As an American that didn't vote for Trump, I think the idea of running to Canada was always a funny joke but hopefully not serious. Although with the immigration site crashing last night, maybe I was wrong!!

We're all in this together, for better or worse, so hopefully we'll all come together rather than continue to hate on each side.

The world markets are in shock and falling let and right. Sad time when a man like this can win one can only hope he wises up and has good advisers that tell him building a wall or forcing Muslim to be registered, etc. are not good ideas.

I love how fleeing potential political oppression is treated as totally legitimate and hilarious when it's Americans and yet people fleeing a literal war zone are considered potential terrorists and told to go back...

This. If you want to work there anyway. If you have a LOT of money and don't need a job it is much easier.

Even then it's not easy between Canada and the US either way.

People need to calm down and see how it plays out over the coming months. If he starts doing stupid things like actually cancelling NAFTA, taking away gay rights, forcing some sort of registration for Muslims, etc then you might see people try as refugees which would be surreal...having Americans coming to the Canadian border and seeking refugee status but that would mean the US would be in very much trouble.

I certainly can't speak for all others, but I can tell you that many of us don't feel that way, and certainly know the difference between the hyperbole of 'moving to Canada' and fleeing from war.

That's fair, and people who are suggesting fleeing to Canada are generally the same people who were pro-refugee (at least, I can only assume). I don't want to politicize this thread (although it kinda is in its nature), but I more just have a general frustration with the difference in tone between "fleeing to Canada" and "fleeing Syria"
