I'm in the same exact boat. US citizen, making my way out because it's way too dangerous. I can read the writing on the wall.

Wow, I can't believe how common this is becoming. There was an article about this recently, https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2025/03/gold-card-residence-abroad/682103/ (archive https://archive.is/q3iCF )

Out of curiosity (and on the off-chance that it helps out a fellow USian) how are you getting out? What's the path you've picked, if you've gotten that far, or what options are you considering?

Work transfer. Contracts are signed, lawyers are lawyering, I'm just waiting and planning the logistics.

Like an intra-corporate transfer to the Canadian office of your current US-based employer?

Also, welcome!
