The U.S. Presidential election is getting closer every day! Lots of folks have said that they'll move to Canada if their candidate doesn't win. Well, the friendly folks of IFHT have produced something to help those people adjust..... https://youtu.be/cPX3lEIS4bo Don'cha think that was awfully nice of them, eh?

Is it people from both sides who say they will move to Canada if their man/woman doesn't win?

Yeah, but a lot more of Clinton's supporters say it. (I'd estimate at least 5 Clinton supporters to every Trump.)

DT: I've seen US conservatives say they'll move to Canada, and it makes me roll my eyes (I'm a dual citizen US and Canadian living in Canada). Canada is pretty much the antithesis of what they often believe in. We've got universal healthcare, strong gun control, etc. Part of it though is just the "you think it's that easy to just up and move to another country?"

There is a part of me that wonders how they would react when they see that everything is in both English and French, and not just English.

So many in the past 25 years have said that, particularly in Hollywood, yet none of them have moved. It's all hot air. I'd like to see Canada say "No thanks. Fix your country and keep us out of it."

That too!

They do send back US soldiers who claim to be "conscientious objectors"; unlike the Vietnam War, today's American military is 100% volunteer, so today's soldiers can't use Canada to break their contracts. BTW, has anybody clicked on the link?

Yes, I'd already seen that video. It's very cute, eh.

To be honest, guys, if I could, I would also move to Canada: they have the cutest prime minister ever -- don't you, CW?

Oh yes, he's a hottie, but that's not why I voted for him.

There's a relevant article on the BBC website today -- but I've forgotten how to add links here. Anyway, the headline is pretty revealing: "Bugs and house prices"

is this the article, DT? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-36730174

Yes! Thank you KT!

You're welcome, DT. I wasn't sure because it wasn't the same headline, but it was the only article from the BBC I found when I googled "Bugs and House Prices".
