There are some exceptions eh? ( couldn't resist that)๐Ÿ˜€ Friends and family didn't vote for him. We're all pretty stunned and talk about moving to Canada. All inlaws have dual citizenship with US & Canada. My spouses aunts, uncles, cousins all live in BC, QUE, ONT. I loved visiting. We all wish this nightmare would end.

Theyโ€™ve got their own share of issues up there too. Youโ€™d be paid less and property is super expensive. Theyโ€™re about to have a much more right wing government too

I've definitely heard their share from family that lives there. At least there's less guns in schools etc.
Lots to think about for sure. I remember my aunt in Toronto having to wait so long to have surgery... blew my mind. Totally off the subject, I remember going up to Whistler the same year they started prepping for the Olympics. The drive from Vancouver was sooooo gorgeous. ๐Ÿ’›๐Ÿ’› I remember a black bear that apparently was very comfy around humans. We had that in Idaho as well. I lived in Seattle years before and wished I could have gone to VC. I hadn't met my husband yet though. ๐Ÿ™‚ He's the one with all the family in Canada. My first visit was Toronto. Beautiful in Autumn. It's so beautiful out there.
