‘Very disturbing’: Canadians flee Florida, worrying business owners​


FORT MYERS, Fla. (WFLA) — An estimated 60,000 Canadian citizens flock to Florida each year, including many “snowbirds” who spend their winters in the Sunshine State.

In the wake of a new Trump administration policy requiring background checks and fingerprints if they plan to stay more than 30 days, as well as an ongoing trade war with our neighbors to the north, some Canadians say they’re leaving Florida for goid.

“I live here six months. This is my home, but I’m leaving April 2nd,” a Canadian woman named Susan told NBC affiliate WBBH. She wasn’t comfortable giving her last name, fearing Canadians could become targets amid escalating tensions with U.S. leadership.

Susan was just one of several Canadians who said they’re selling their properties with no plans to return to Florida.

“We don’t want to be the 51st state, but we just want to be very good allies and wants things to go back to the way they were,” Canadian Janet Rockefeller said.

Good luck with your Global Trade War, your military threats against Greenland, and turning your back on the NATO alliance.

We'll settle this in the 2026 midterms.

By then it will be too late. Trump will have taken over the entire election system, canceled the midterms,
be well on his way to campaigning for a fourth term and the US will own Canada and Greenland.
I read that right here on JPP.

The American voters will remedy that.

Your toxic (per Democrats) party is on the wrong side of most of the 80%-20% issues.

A new poll by Harvard CAPS-Harris reveals the majority of the country backs President Donald J. Trump and his actions to bring much-needed reforms that are making America great again.

  • Americans overwhelmingly support President Trump’s agenda.
    • 81% support deporting criminal illegal immigrants.
    • 76% support a “full-scale effort to find and eliminate fraud and waste in government.”
    • 76% support closing the border with additional security and policies.
    • 69% support keeping men out of women’s sports.
    • 68% support government declaring there are only two genders.
    • 65% support ending race-based hiring in government.
    • 63% support “freezing and re-evaluating all foreign aid expenditures and the department that handled them.”
    • 61% support reciprocal tariffs.
    • 60% support direct U.S. negotiations with Russia to end the war in Ukraine.
    • 59% support cutting government spending already approved by Congress.
    • 57% support ending the ban on new offshore drilling.
  • Most Americans approve of President Trump’s job performance — including pluralities of men, women, independents, and Americans who live in urban, suburban, and rural areas — while almost six-in-ten say he’s doing a better job than President Biden.
  • Almost half of Americans believe the U.S. economy is “strong” under President Trump — the highest number since 2021 — while a plurality say his policies will make them “financially better off.”
  • Americans are significantly more optimistic about the direction of the country, with those who say we’re on the right track up 14 points over last month.
  • Americans strongly support President Trump’s effort to root out waste, fraud, and abuse in government.
    • 77% support a “full examination of all government expenditures.”
    • 72% agree there should be a government agency “focused on efficiency.”
    • 70% say government is “filled with waste, fraud, and inefficiency.”
    • Two-thirds say Congress should join the “effort to reduce government expenditures.”
  • Americans back President Trump’s action to protect American workers.
    • 61% support reciprocal tariffs.
    • 57% say tariffs are an “effective foreign and economic policy tool.”
    • 54% say tariffs will help get “concessions from other countries.”
  • President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, and Attorney General Pam Bondi all enjoy net positive favorability.

Americans are gonna get nostalgic real fast about the days when the stock market was breaking records, jobs were being added in droves, wages were going up, inflation was going down & we had friends in the world.

Keep posting that poll from February. The polls ain't getting better for Trump now. He really doesn't know what he's doing.

Inflation did not go down when the vegetable was in office. It went up 20% while he was “in office.”

Your “friends” were eating us alive with their unfair tariffs.

First, ex-Captain Earl, that poll was last month, only a month into Trump's term. You knuckleheads keep saying, "he's only been in office two months. Give him a chance" then flip-flop and declare victory less barely two months into his term.

The stock market is down, the economic forecast is grim. Once the impact of Musk's chainsawing our government begins to impact most Americans be it veterans, tax returns, health services, etc, that's when you'll see the negative impact upon Trump's numbers.

The only chance they have of winning the Midterms is for the DOGE to rig the election...which they are already working on.
