Liberals leaving America for Canada

Posted by: ST on August 2, 2007 at 4:05 pm

Mark Finkelstein at Newsbusters has the details on a story ABC News did on emigration from the US to Canada, in which they report that a substantial number of those who’ve packed up and headed to ‘higher ground’ are liberals.

I find that really sad. Not in a boohoo kind of way but just disappointing. If you don’t like how your country is being run, you’re supposed fight for it, not run away from it. That these fruits are going to another country just shows that they would rather run away than stay, stand up and fight back.

Kind of fitting, actually, considering who the ‘leaders’ of the Dem party are.

    Did Alec Baldwin get on that bus? Take off, eh?

    How about Mikey Mooreon?

    He can get his gastro bypass up there for free but he may wait in line for a few years.

    Buh Bye Now! Aloha! Ciao! Adios! Adiu! Proshyai! Cheerio! Sholem! See ya!

    Best of all. Good riddance.=d>

    Canada is welcome to them – though I certainly wouldn’t wish them upon our neighbors to the north.

    Some things to note:
    The article says “In 2006, 10,942 Americans went to Canada…Last year, 23,913 Canadians moved to the United States…” There are about 10 times as many Americans as Canadians. So, proportionally, Canadians come here at a rate 20 times that of Americans going north.

    The article also quotes director of Association for Canadian Studies: “During the mid-70s, Canada admitted between 22,000 and 26,000 Americans a year, most of whom were draft dodgers from the Vietnam War.” As I recall the draft ended in 1973. Those must have been some extraordinarily stupid draft dodgers going to Canada in the mid-70s

    Taranto in Best of the Web today has another observation that’s pertinent, there is a major oil boom in Canada. What do you bet a fair number of those migrating up north are doing so for the oil boom not for political reasons, but that doesn’t fit the meme the MSM is trying to propagate. Not that having BDS suffering moonbats moving out of the country is a bad thing mind you.

    Hi! I’m Bob McKenzie and this is my brother Doug.

    And today we’re going to welcome our newcomers to Canada, eh?

    “I’ll get out the keg!”

    “Wait till they taste the Molson’s we don’t export, eh?”

    \:d/

    Someone oughta remind these libs that the Canadians just elected a Conservative (cue the scary ominous music) Prime Minister.

    So maybe Canada’s not a good fit for them. Maybe they should head for France instead…oops, no, sorry…socialists just lost that election too.

    I know…Germany!! Nope…Angela Merkel’s been moving them closer to the US.

    However, Venezuela, North Korea, and Iran will all welcome them with open arms!! Hurry, libs…get your tickets fast!!

    I wish they’d all join the migration…and take those nasty Canadian geese with ‘em. 8-}

    Anyway, they can buy the subsidized pharmaceuticals up there; they probably need it… @-)

    They can now be totally anti-American without being the trators they were when Americans.
