As a Canadian I welcome our new American refugees. Please leave your guns at the door and be sure to grab your free plate of poutine when you arrive.

All those Canadians living under a hostile government, invasions have happened for less.

I’m actually looking into this right now. Other than tracking down all the birth certificates and stuff, it seems pretty straightforward.

The bill is C-3, since the article didn’t seem to mention it.

I’m waiting on the last birth certificate we need for our application. Let’s go Saskatchewan administrators! Find that old birth record please, we know it’s in there somewhere.

My great grandparents were from Didsbury, Alberta so my entire immediate family qualifies… Would be interesting to see how this shakes out.

I think the only fear would be Trump cronies going nuts and trying to deport us.

Most Americans vacationing in Switzerland consider themselves Canadian in public. We can always spot the fake Canadians though.

Lol is it the way they say “about” ?

I really don’t want more Americans to have the right to fuck up our elections and politics.

I’m so god damn exhausted of Americans.

I get you’re not all bad, but even the non trumpers have politics that are a reason they left.
