1. I hope to be joining the exodus. Get out of this hell hole that is the city of Ottawa. Looking to head west, and leave all the wokeness behind!

   1. Just don’t land in BC. It will feel like you never left town!!!

   2. interesting to see the demographics of the departed. A Mennonite family now has 4 sons out west. Trucking and a diesel mechanic. Then there is possible the departure of the entrepreneurs. Oh well, more diversity hires in Hogtown will fix things

2. I hope they’re mostly recent arrivals.
   Really, I feel pretty good about this. Fewer people, the better.

   1. I thought of that for a moment, then I realized that the few that remain will have to pay an exorbitant increase in taxes to make up for the loss of revenue.

3. Doug Ford “conservatism” at work. Aka, Kathleen Wynne Leftism fulfilled.

   Eventually, people flee socialism.

   The flight has begun.

4. Yeah, coming to Alberta along with their insatiable thirst for free stuff. If you’re going to vote NDP or Liberal, go somewhere else. Like BC.

   1. Precisely. Or the Arctic Circle. I hear there’s a nice, temperate Prog colony being set up on a large island up there. With all this Globull Warming going on, you want to beat the rush, buy up a few extra lots to sell for retirement.

   2. @ MikeT = ^^110%

   3. Yeah, we don’t want them here either, but understand the simplistic thoughts of the Gimme Gimme crowd.
      Welcome to BC, Free Drugs, Gubmint Drugs, Free Housing “for the “homeless””, Free Food, and lotsa other free munny from Commie government. And the rest pay more taxes to take care of the useless welfare morons infesting this province.
      Don’t forget your masks, dummies, you’ll blend right in with the rest of the sheep here.

      1. Dan, we could have it so good in here, eh? Plenty of agricultural land, plenty of natural resources, a nice stretch of land with decent all-year-long weather, decent hydroelectricity capacity, great coast line to export LNG and oil, beautiful landscapes. Why, oh why! do we get the freaking governments that we keep on getting (rhetorical question, as you answer that question very well on your post)

   4. The majority of people in Alberta live in Alberta and Edmonton, both of which have whack job mayors. Somebody must have voted for them.

      1. I must assume you meant “Calgary and Edmonton”….and I certainly did not vote for the Calgary mayor.

   5. Better yet, if you are going to vote wrong, stay in the sh*thole you are creating, until it teaches you to vote right and fix it.

5. Please don’t come to California … we have too many of that type as it is

6. I’d just like to flee the “big city” eventually and I doubt that’s what these people are doing.

7. It’s just over 47K people leaving. That barely qualifies as a rounding error. As the author of the tweet points out, the population of Ontario is the equivalent of the population of the rest of Canada, excluding Quebec.

   1. Exactly so. It’s a rounding error. It’s also at the very end of a graph which means it has no predictive value whatsoever. Using bogus trends at the ends of graphs is exactly the problem of Mike’s Nature Trick used to make phony projections for future temperature trends in global warming.

   2. Don’t care. If there’s one Prog in the 47k, I don’t want the bastard here.

8. I’m one of those. From Cambridge to Vonda. Results have been… mixed.

   With God as my witness, I thought Corner Gas was real.

   1. Why not relocate to Indian Head, Sask., the home of Little Mosque on the Prairie

   2. Should have gone to Rouleau.

      1. Paul Rouleau?

9. Asking for the Dear Leader: are the illegal immigrants being shipped from Roxham Road in Quebec to Ontario being counted as “coming to Ontario from other provinces”?

10. We had enough in the 70’s when they came to Alberta, made a helluva mess when they all went home in the early 80’s, not sure we want them back.

11. We left Hamilton area last September and bought a small acreage in Alberta. Wished we had done it sooner as we took a $150k hit on the sale of our house vs 6 months earlier.

    Ontario is insufferable – so many still living like it’s 2021. It’s sad and infuriating at once. Our kids were locked out of school more than any jurisdiction in NA, with exception of perhaps California. My wife and I both came within a whisker of getting fired for non-compliance with mask and jab mandates. We luckily received a grudging reprieve when common sense prevailed last spring amongst our employers, but we couldn’t continue to live in such a broken, irrational, and threatening environment.

    Looking around Canada, Alberta, despite all its plandemic issues, was the best option. We’re committed to fighting for respect for freedom and individual rights here, despite the disappointing number of communists in Calgary and Edmonton.

    1. So you went to Alberta where they are jailing people who protest pedophiles. Out of the frying pan into the fire.

       1. We would have moved to a red state if we could. Friends of ours did (she’s American).

          Our move made economic sense as well since we were able to eliminate some existing debt and be mortgage free. Alberta is still a better place than the GTA.

    2. Hamilton, Ontario. A sewer within a sewer.

12. This is one case where I have been happy to be a statistic.

    1. Even in the small Northern towns in Ontario, people religiously listen to CBC. In the town i lived in, my husband who is a veteran with a lung disease who can’t wear a mask was badgered and harrassed by fat Karens every single time he went out. I hate the people who fell for it all and threw their morals and human decency out to pander to a POS government that would not give a flick whether they are dead from an experimental vaccine. Ontario and all their ways can FO, and FO hard into the sunset in their stupid virtue signalling face diapers. I lost my career because of these people and I will not go back nor forgive them. I loathe them and their pretentious ways.

13. Hey where are you all going? I want out of here too…

14. I think we are mistaken if we believe the people leaving Ontario are moving within Canada. While some undoubtedly are there is a very large movement out of Canada by recent immigrants, old and new Canadians. The cache of Canada has disappeared under little potato and his oriental masters.

15. Hockey stick?

16. This really sucks. Now Toronto wants to bring their destruction to other areas of the country? No thanks stay in your retard containment zone. Isn’t it already enough that you carpetbaggers run the country and steal all the money?

17. I can’t wait to move across the street from CBC’s Toronto HQ into my government-provided 400 square foot dormitory room with no balcony, where I will live out the rest of my days eating insect protein, owning nothing, and loving it, until the authorities assign a date for my “assisted suicide.”
