For some college-bound students distressed by the election of Donald Trump, Canada is calling.

Colleges from Quebec to British Columbia say applications and website traffic from the United States have been surging since Trump’s victory Nov. 8. Although many Canadian schools had also ramped up recruiting in the U.S. recently, some say dismay over the presidential election has fueled a spike in interest beyond their expectations.

Lara Godoff, a 17-year-old from Napa, California, said she scrapped any notion of staying in the U.S. the day after the election. Among other concerns, Godoff, a Democrat, said she fears Trump’s administration will ease enforcement of federal rules against sexual assault, making campuses less safe for women....

My point was that your typical U.S.-American SJW Snowflake isn't going to be prepared for life above the 54th Parallel.

The Canada-US Border is at the 49th. parallel.

We wanted the 54th. (54' 40" or Fight!), but ultimately were not prepared to go to war with Great Britain again to get it.

That’s great! It will be fewer maggots for the American taxpayer to help support. Bye! Seeya, eh?

That’s what I get for living below the Mason-Dixon Line. Where I was stationed in Europe was 54 North. It got pretty cold there.

Truth is Canadian campuses have been attracting more and more Foreign students because...the exchange is much better if you have dollars instead of loonies.

I can't say I blame her. Living in California wine country must be hell on Earth./S I wonder how far she is from the Pelosi winery?

[MasterGunner01]

Good! You snowflakes need to go to Canada for your college and STAY there. Don't ccme back...stay in the Great White North, please. America thanks you for your sacrifice.

[apocalypto]

Yes, we should encourage them to go to Canada.

[trisham]

I hope that they leave and never return.

[Phil DiBasquette]

They’ve been a wholly owned subsidiary for decades anyway

Ironic that the leftist views American colleges push may be what resulted in them losing these “customers”.

[SouthernerFromTheNorth]

Correct on both counts. There is a junior college there but no university - Saskatchewan has only two public universities AFAIK. And it is definitely not a liberal area there. Most of these SJW’s are looking at cities like Toronto and Vancouver, which are already infested with lefties.
