Americans: It's not as easy as just 'moving to Canada'
Quote:
Here’s how it works. Canada plans to accept 300,000 new permanent residents in 2017. About 40,000 will be refugees, and the supposed horror of a Trump or Clinton presidency doesn’t count toward refugee status. Another 80,000 will be family members of Canadians, which most Americans don’t have.
The rest will mostly be skilled workers. Considering that some skilled workers who applied under some programs are facing processing times in excess of six years, Americans fleeing Trump or Clinton would have to qualify for the Express Entry program, which cuts processing times to around six months.
Express Entry scores people out of 1,200 points and then ranks them. The minimum required score is constantly changing. In 2015, it never dipped below 450 points.
A full 600 points is given for those who have a job offer. But getting that job offer is difficult. An employer must prove that “no Canadian worker is available to do the job.” With more than 1.3 million unemployed Canadians, that’s a hard sell.

Thankfully I became a Canadian citizen in 2009. My mom knew the tea.

Americans can stay rotting in this doomed nation, we dont want to allow refugees from war torn countries with dictators so why should a thriving country like Canada take us pathetic fools in.. we made our bed, lie in it. Poor America, Uneducated America, Struggling America, yall gon’ lie in this damn bed today! You elected this fool, you think this rich mother*cker is going to help you, yall are nothing to him, he is going to do NOTHING for you, he will take money from your pockets to build that wall, to do whatever he wants. Americans are truly f*cking insufferable, thinking that this land is exclusive to you just because your ancestors invaded the continent and killed off the native population years back. Get a f*cking grip, Americans have no concept of the world they live in!!

Americans say they're going to Canada. But they actually don't mean it. Americans are just dramatic.
