Voting with your feet

A number of people publicly stated that they were emigrating to Canada if President Bush won the 2004 election. CBC has the numbers:
Few Americans moved north after Bush win: stats
The hordes of Americans who vowed to move to Canada after George W. Bush was re-elected president last November haven't followed through on the threat, immigration numbers show.

A total of 14,666 Americans applied to emigrate between November 2004 and March 2005, according to statistics from the main processing centre in Buffalo, N.Y. That's 1,600 fewer than had applied in the six months leading up to the U.S. election.
Emphasis mine -- so very typical of the lefties... Always talking a nice "sound-bite" but do they ever put their money where their mouth is? Posted by DaveH at August 5, 2005 2:00 PM
