Oh my gosh... I have friends in Canada who sold their farm and moved to Mexico last year. Crazy. I'm in NC. We have 2 major woke cities and some suburbs of those, and a few college towns that lean left, but if you look at an election map you'll see that the vast majority is decidedly not down with woke. I'm at the coast in a rural/agricultural area with good public schools, amazingly (we homeschooled and my youngest is 27, but by all accounts they're good). Kids are polite, girls look like girls and boys look like boys, hunting and fishing are major activities, and boats fly Don't Tread on Me flags. It's great

Sounds like a good place to live. I've been looking at properties in South Carolina,, Tennessee and Missouri. Once the kids are all in post secondary, my wife and I can buy a place in the USA. I don't trust the government or the majority of the people up here anymore so I want to be able to live a lot of the time in a state that is conservative in as much as the people for the most part value their independence and freedoms.

That's not Canada anymore. People here want the government to do everything for them. They'll give up their freedoms and get little of value in return.

That's why we have so many people here from China. They want Communism without quite as many restrictions. That's pretty much Canada now. You're free as long as you agree with the government. Protest against the government and they'll cancel your access to your bank account......all for the "greater good" of course.
