But will they follow through?
Immigration lawyers say it's a difficult question to answer, but they are already starting to see an uptick in U.S. citizens contacting their offices for help.
According to Google Trends, searches about moving to Canada started spiking in the U.S. last month.
The biggest uptick was on June 28, one day after President Joe Biden faced off with former President Donald J. Trump in a highly anticipated televised debate. Biden was widely criticized by Democrats and Republicans alike for fumbling the debate and giving Trump an early win in the high-stakes campaign.
Another rise in Google searches from the States came on July 2, following the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark ruling that handed Trump broad immunity from prosecution for actions within his constitutional powers.
