It's a similar threat being levelled in 2020 as 3 November approaches, with a YouGov poll suggesting one-third of Americans are interested in moving to Canada if the election doesn't go their way, writes Justin Vallejo

But some certainly kept to their word. Statistics from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada compiled for The Independent show citizen grant applications from US residents increased from 3,037 in 2016, to 5,085 in 2017, and 5,844 in 2018. To be granted citizenship, however, applicants need to be permanent residents for at least two years. Permanent residents in Canada from the US saw an uptick from 7,655 in 2015 to 8,485 in 2016 and 9,140 in 2017.

don't make any sudden moves until after nov 3 or jan 21 (depending on nov 3)

No stay there you never know. Net neutrality is killing people and they are forcing women to wear pink pussyhats and red dresses. I would wait until democrats can replace the Supreme Court judges.

Why would anyone want to come back to America!? Even if Trump is kicked out, it will still be a 3rd world country in so many ways. Education, healthcare, criminal justice, etc.

Notice how the SJWs never flee to Mexico 😂

I hope it will be safe for me to come back after Election Day 👍👍

Yes. Please go home.
