This is one of those great ideas that starts in jest, the gestates...
So, a lot of U.S. lefties want to move to Canada or New Zealand
But it's a hassle. Both junior members of the Anglosphere are fussy about who can emigrate to their fair shores. You have to wait in line behind everyone else.
What is needed is citizenship trading. I'm quite sure there would be plenty of takers if an American citizen wanted to trade their citizenship with a New Zealander trying to escape Kiwi anti-semitism or a Canadian wanting decent health care. If such a trading system could be implemented it would ensure that the dominant parties in each country would increase their majorities.
What would Alf do? That's what I want to know.
