I agree with you. Living in Canada is a privilege, not a consolation prize. I have wanted to live in Canada for many years now, but it is not in the cards for me. I am aware that my American vote or lack of voting resonates globally. I do take this into consideration when i vote at the national level and at the State level. (I live in California and I know California also has a huge sphere of influence in trade and various other matters.)

I have a great deal of respect for your country and it's people. My hope is that Canada and the USA will forever be allies. As for the rich people who can buy their way into almost anything, it must be nice. However most of us cannot. I do care about the fate of my country and I will continue to vote and do what I can to maintain a democracy and work to be a conscientious global and national citizen.
