I wouldn’t bet on Canada fwholesale embracing US nationals fleeing a fascist government as refugees. They’ve taken on plenty of war refugees, but IIRC they cherry pick the ones with needed skills.

Canada requires you to have a plan that makes you an asset to Canada (fair enough). Certain occupations in certain provinces are in need. Having a plan to start or invest in a business and hard proof that you have the capital to do so ($2M USD) is also a possibility. Having family in Canada and already having a written job offer or business plan helps. There is also the matter of the medical clearance and demonstration of proficiency in both English and French.

FWIW, Canada does not have a retiree visa, but many countries do.

France, Costa Rica, New Zealand look mighty good. Uruguay if you are looking for no entry visa requirement, no retirement visa income requirements, duty-free on your car and the ability to buy real estate as a non-citizen. Apartment with ocean views in Punta?

Fried rice with chopped kimchi and Spam with a fried egg. Serving suggestion: eaten over the sink after a long night of it. Pants optional.

If she is, it would probably be to change laws in the State of Georgia to allow a president to pardon someone of Georgia state charges.

Interesting that there was a significant increase during and following the pandemic due to irreconcilable differences over masking and vaccines. Probably wasn’t helped to be locked down together at that point, either.

It’s actually parity of response. No orca was killed, no humans have been killed.

I remember when my daughter (elementary school age at the time) let all the kids into her dress-up clothes. There were some parents who were less than pleased to see their sons wearing tutus, tiaras, gowns, fairy wings and the like. Honestly, they all looked adorable!

Kind of like life begins at conception, but once the child is actually born you’re on your own.
