I never thought I’d say it, but Canada is looking pretty good these days.
They have more economic freedom.
They have a pro-Western Civilization foreign policy.
They have lower corporate tax rates.
They allow energy companies to operate within reason
Agreed!
Once global warming kicks in as promised I think Canada will really take off and become an attractive alternative for many.

They went a little right and have largely dumped Trudeauist socialism, but the Cloward-Pivenites have taken America way Left in the same time-frame. Canada didn't change much - we did.
I agree. When I first moved to the Great White North for education purposes 20 years ago, I thought that Canada was a slightly troubled socialist state. Over two decades, it has moved somewhat further left on social issues and a fair bit rightward on economics. It is by no means perfect, but my reservations about applying for permanent residence status with a view of eventually becoming a citizen were being reduced gradually, and the present administration has managed to reduce all reservations to rubble. It isn’t so bad up here—come on in, the water’s frozen (only for part of the year).
Their time will come.
