What kind of work are you looking for?
I am planning to keep my remote job at my company
Have you run that by them? If you become a resident of another country, they may have payroll restrictions that prevent them from paying you.
We had a Bosnian employee emigrate to Canada, and was approved, so there’s precedent. I am not the only one interested either. Of course I will check with HR, but I have some other things to get squared away first.
Permanent residence in #Canada is hard to obtain, though it's far easier if you take a job, in a field where you're in demand. By government policy, the number of people getting permanent residence each year is being cut back, so even that may not be sufficient.
I'm retired and have no hope of getting permanent status, unless Canada starts accepting asylum claims by U.S. citizens.

#MovingToCanada
My own plan, and yes it involves privilege, is to obtain shelter in Canada and then be ready to travel there intermittently. We can visit temporarily for 6 months at a time without a visa. My choice of location is determined by how far I can go by car with a cat.
And maybe then I can find some way to help people for whom getting out of the U.S. is a matter of survival.

British Columbia.
Kelowna, Kamloops, Abbotsford maybe.
Vancouver Island is great but not many mountains. If you have the money, the North Shore in Vancouver is awesome.
You could live in the Northwest of British Columbia around Haida Gwaii or Vancouver Island
