Moving to Canada? Really?

In light of a presidential election, I seriously wonder how many times it's been said that if the "other" candidate wins, a person may move to Canada. I heard this preceding the 2004 election, as well as the one in 2008 and am again hearing that same declaration this year in the run-up to November's election. With that in mind, I wonder how many people have actually followed through on the matter. I'm guessing the number is quite high for the people who have talked the talked, yet quite low on following through with what they said. I'll be awaiting scientific studies regarding the matter in the coming days. Why is it always Canada? Why not Mexico? Puerto Rico? Jamaica? Texas, if it becomes its own country? Why Canada? As I've only heard this when living in Nebraska and Ohio, perhaps it's different down in the south and instead of claiming they'll move to Canada if X candidate wins an election, they choose a warmer foreign country to inhabit....
