There's a slight bit of difference between those things.
1.) The people going to Canada (I haven't heard anyone going to Mexico :p ) are sore losers. If their candidate would've won, the republicans would've sucked it up, but apparently, some democrats just can't handle it. I could care less. Besides, it takes about 5 years for Canadian citizenship, and the government already said it isn't expediting services to assist "political refugees" from the United States.
Please, please. Go to Canada. It helps us.
2.) The people are leaving Cuba because it is a shithole economically and politically.
