I'm not a doctor but if trump takes Canada, I'll be seriously looking into what it takes to move to The Netherlands.... That or some nice country/Island where I don't need to hurt other people.

My country (Portugal) is a quite good place, but please don't buy or rent any overpriced house, because that makes it too expensive for the poorest citizens (minimum salary is less than 900 euros per month).

I've heard nothing but good things about Portugal! Though, I think it's incredibly disrespectful to go to a country and not know at least SOME of the local language. I've never even considered learning Portuguese but I am now, if not just to visit. I will 100% respect the local culture.

I really like it in Canada, but I am quite scared of trump calling himself king, Canada the 51st state, etc. If it comes down to it, any peaceful place is where I want to be.

It is a good place, but it does not necessarily have a lot of good people. We also have quite some ignorants, similar to the 'Murican ones. Another thing is that Portuguese is not very easy to learn or pronounce, especially the more neutral accent (the pseudo-Lisbon one). My suggestion is to pick a place you'd like to visit, and specialize your information, for that area. Anyway, good luck!
