The number of Americans claiming asylum in Canada has jumped dramatically, as voters who dislike Donald Trump and his policies flee north of the border.
In 2025, there were 1,850 asylum applications for Americans seeking to move to Canada - more than double the 700 in 2024, the year Trump won his second presidential election.
Immigration data, viewed by the Daily Mail, shows that US asylum claims are approaching figures not seen since Trump's last term, with a record 2,535 applying for asylum in 2017, at the height of the anti-Trump 'Resistance' movement.
Prior to Trump taking office in 2017, the number of Americans seeking asylum in Canada was only a few hundred each year, but surged into the four figures after the election of the MAGA president.
The first full year of Democrat President Joe Biden's term in office - 2022 - saw 1,140 Americans seeking asylum in Canada.
Numbers then fell sharply, to between 300 and 700 a year for the remainder of Biden's single term in office.
Ryan Rosenberg, a managing partner in Canadian firm Larlee Rosenberg, said he has seen a definite increase in immigration inquiries from Americans since Trump took the White House in 2016 and 2024.
'We definitely saw a massive spike in business,' Rosenberg told the Daily Mail. But this time, he said, the law firm saw inquiries from a 'much wider range of Americans.'

Doesn’t say how many Canucks move to the U.S.A.
I doubt it. It is incredibly difficult.
That’s a trickle and this movement of Americans into Canada is a trickle, compared to the flood of people coming here for economic reasons. It’s probably smaller than the flow of criminals coming here illegally.
Let Canada pay their psychiatric bills, or talk them into MAiD.
The only problem I have with it is that it leaves 100s of thousands of TDS clowns that aren't going.
More please!
Good riddance. Flee and join Canaduh’s bloated gov’t/taxpayer services.
LA and SD suffer major population drops as immigration slows and CA residents flee
good GTFO!
It is a trickle right now, as Canada and Western Europe continue to allow in Muslim invaders, that trickle could turn into a steady stream, plus it would be interesting to watch the reaction of liberals in the US and everywhere else.
Right now, the overwhelming majority of migrants are some other race than white.
GOOD! Revoke their citizenship and voting privileges!!!
75 million Democrat voters going to Canada (or Cuba) would be a good number
Doe Alyssa have any proof. I’m not seeing it. As a matter of fact, they are all coming back. Eddie Degenerate, Rosie O’Ruble...
Yay!
IVFT!
Good riddance.
Unfortunately, they’ll all be back once a Democrat is elected. God save us from such an eventuality.
Hosers who claim they are being persecuted by Trump are fleeing to Canada in record numbers.
Just keep these TDS people out of Alberta and Saskatchewan, where rugged, conservative individualists reside.
Their House just passed a bill that states you can be arrested for quoting the bible if it offends the trannys. We are lucky to rid our country of anyone who would leave to go to Canada.
The Lutheran Bishop of Finland and a member of its own Parliament were just convicted by their supreme court of hate speech for a 2004 pamphlet about the Church’s teaching on homosexuality. The law criminalizing speech wasn’t passed until 2009.
The publisher was also fined.
liberal voters welcome - Carney
