Canada's got weed. They've had same sex marriage for longer. And they're the people responsible for the godlike-figures that are Ryan Reynolds and Ryan Gosling.

But for many Americans the greatest draw is that they don't have to worry about their country potentially being run by Donald Trump.

Following the results of the Super Tuesday US presidential primary elections this week, several Americans who were disheartened by the results contemplated leaving the country.

Specifically to Canada.

The results from the primary elections last Tuesday showed Republican/human hair piece Donald Trump leading with seven states and 203 delegates. Coming second was Texas senator Ted Cruz with three states and 144 delegates.

On the Democrats side, Hillary Clinton lead comfortably also securing seven states and 417 delegates while Vermont senator Bernie Sanders took four states and 230 delegates.

The Super Tuesday elections are historically seen a litmus test for presidential candidates of either party, testing whether they're seen as electable enough for a general election.

But it seems some people have already made up their mind who they want to be their leader. And honestly, can you blame them?
