Not legal, but I could see an underground railroad forming again, for vulnerable people in the U.S. fleeing oppression.
Honestly I would bet money that it has already formed to a degree. With countries this close culturally? Would expect there are several independent groups already. Of course they won't advertise themselves on social media or anywhere public for that matter.
Two weeks hiding in Canada and anyone can ask for refugee status but I'm pretty sure anyone with US citizenship would be refused
That's definitely the case right now, but I'm wondering if that could change if the danger of remaining in the U.S. raised to the point where it couldn't be ignored.
But like I said, there are methods which are illegal but morally defensible, too.
