In the West there are generally two big queues for immigration:
People who desperately need help, so refugees.
People who bring things we really need, typically skills (though many countries will also to it for mere wealth)
Americans don’t (yet) qualify for the first queue and as for the second one it really depends on your skillset and wealth (if I remember it correctly Canada does have a VISA for people who bring enough money). Mind you, the skillset required to qualify for queue #2 is often not what one would expect - I vaguelly remembers something like “plumbers” and “pastry chefs”. It’s well worth it to check what are in-demand skills of the country you want to immigrate to if you need a VISA.
I mean, why should a rich country accept people from other rich country if they don’t bring any necessary qualifications to the table? You’re not a refugee, the fact that the situation is shit in the USA is on the people that live there, it’s not our responsibility to save you guys.
You’re the one saying that all extra hands are beneficial to the economy, yet we intentionally refuse people who apply for immigration, why? By your logic we should be welcoming everyone to boost our economy, right?
“If X gets elected I’m moving to Canada”
Both sides say the same thing, Republicans say it not realizing that Canada is in general much more progressive than the Democrats…
Man, I’d LOVE to move to Canada. It’s a massive step to the left for me.
They wouldn’t take me though. I’m not good enough for most countries, apparently.
Sure but how will they catch you if you just go to Transporter Room 3 and energize?

Stable remote work with an income floor is about all Portugal is currently asking. It’s seemingly the most open path into the EU.
Seriously considered it. But, when things get worse globally I wanted to be closer to my family.

Liberals, lol. Like every extra obedient peasant isn’t more productivity for the ruling class to siphon.
Why then don’t we just let in anyone and everyone that wants to move from the USA to Canada?
“What if completely made up scenario” indeed

Shitlibs, lol.
You know, you can just admit you were wrong instead of insulting people.
You forgot the basics.
