The number of Google searches for “How to move to Canada” spiked on Super Tuesday, when 12 states hold their primaries.
It’s unclear whose victories contributed to the spike, as both the Republican and Democratic front-runners, Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, cemented their leads on Super Tuesday. Trump and Clinton both won seven states outright.
Earlier this year, a Canadian island resort ran an ad that encouraged Americans to move there if Trump wins, and said that they should start looking now, and not just in November.
A Canadian MP has even introduced a bill to change the citizenship requirements so that hypothetical immigrants, such as Americans leaving the country, can qualify for citizenship after only two years of residency.
