Two thoughts.
Most Canadians view changing your administration as a collective responsibility of all US citizens. Kind thoughts are appreciated but most of us are increasingly impatient.
Second, have you considered that, like many other Americans, you may be a Canadian by descent? And if so, any children you may have also?
At present, due to a 2023 Superior Court Bjorkquist decision on Lost Canadians in Ontario (unchallenged by the federal government), there is an exceptional situation where people born outside Canada who are descendants of people born in Canada can apply to claim citizenship.
See this page - the flag at the top gives the latest extension of the interim provisions (that override the existing law that the Court stayed).

While I wouldn’t normally direct anyone to Reddit, the CanadianCitizenship subreddit has a lot of information on people’s experiences in navigating the process.

Very interesting. I'll have to look. My mom was the genealogist of our family, so she has some great records. As far as I'm aware, none of my ancestors are Canadian, but it seems that this site is saying to dig deeply into both my wife's and my family history and look for any indications someone might have had a Canadian background? I'll look, but even if it doesn't apply to me, maybe it can get some other good people out of this rapidly worsening country.
I'm thinking even if this doesn't help me, it'll potentially help others!
