The REALLY sad thing is that many of my Republican friends and relatives would probably agree with this as they vote for Trump. ---

I had a realization a few weeks ago. I had been thinking, “do I really want to be a part of a country that has Donald Trump as president?” Then I realized the question was really, “do I really want to be a part of a country where Donald Trump has a realistic chance of being elected again?” ---

Since housing seems to be a problem is **ought** to affect those wanting to work from Canada, but that doesn’t mean that it will. ---

Yes. The 2016 election, more than any other event in my adulthood, made me feel like an alien walking around with human skin. And the feeling doesn’t go away. It’s not the rabid cult members that bother me, so much as all the other normal people who voted for him, and are voting for him. I feel like I cannot trust normal people. Leaving the country might help, but it also feels like humans everywhere can not be relied upon, and voting Trump is just one version of that. ---

> [@soyleche](#): > > I’ve thought for a long time that Trump himself isn’t that big of a threat to the country, but Trump supporters really are We’ve been thinking lately, it’s unsettling to know that around 40% of the country may not personally want to pull us out of our homes and kill us, but they’re okay voting alongside the same people who would. It seemed like things were getting better. We’re still flying our pride flag and will be going to events, but it’s unsettling to realize that I’m probably more likely to be killed for it now than a decade or two ago when gay marriage wasn’t legal. ---

> [@SpaceLobster](#): > > Well, you ain’t coming up here. We’re tightening up our immigration policies currently. It’s been a mess that you can see at the local level. Fortunately, I have a work permit for Canada. (Shame that Canada doesn’t recognize certain provisions regarding indigenous people in the Jay treaty, but it’s understandable that Ottawa views the small disagreement of 1812-1815 as having rendered unwanted parts of the Jay treaty inoperable.) That aside… crunching the numbers for such a move quickly makes that a less-appealing option. It’d be more realistic to semi-retire early, do some remote consulting, and emigrate to someplace that is expat-friendly, good for telework, has decent healthcare, and is less expensive. (But on Zillow I did see a lovely place in PEI that was very tempting…) > [@Vorian\_Atreides](#): > > Is the problem involving people who want to work in Canada? Or will it also apply to people who want to work _ **from** _ Canada? I know of a few Americans who, pre-pandemic, effectively lived in Canada, flagpoling the border at least once every six months to reset their visitors’ clock, but telecommuted to the US, rather than running afoul of the need for status to do “Canadian work”. However…I haven’t checked whether the prohibition on folks without long-term status in Canada from buying residential property is still in force. > [@twig93](#): > > Since housing seems to be a problem is **ought** to affect those wanting to work from Canada, but that doesn’t mean that it will. I think the housing problem is eased a little if the folks wanting to work from Canada are a bit more flexible about their physical location. ---
