Folks talk a good game about moving to protest Bush, but most folks I know who've emigrated have done it for love. I know four cross-border couples (3 gay, one lesbian) who decided to live together on one side of the border - three wound up with the Seattle partner moving to Vancouver and the fourth wound up with the Vancouver partner moving to Seattle. Moving north seems a lot easier because of the availability of gay marriage. We have domestic partnership rights in Washington State but that doesn't help with federal immigration laws.
