Tech conferences are relocating from the USA to Canada to attract attendees and speakers who don't want to come to Trump's America

In my previous line of work I once declined to go to the USA for a conference. While it created a fuss I had several colleagues who understood/supported my decision.

Once in a while my SO, friends or family asks about me going/joining on a holiday to USA. I always explain that I’m not feeling safe in the US (rule of law, healthcare, arbitrariness, guns, healthcare).

Even if I were willing to go I probably won’t get admitted after stating my critical opinion about the USA here on BB and on other online venues.
