I'm well aware that the world in general is taking a hard right wing turn. However, it's not like I have a lot of other options.

Canada is closer, why not there? Just curious. I'm from a Nordic nation but don't know how easy it is to immigrate.

For me personally as a person of Indian descent raised in the US, the anti-Indian sentiment that seems to be rapidly growing in Canada makes me feel uncomfortable with moving there (and I'm sure many Canadians are just fine with me staying out.)

That's not to say that Canadians are right or wrong in having issues with the levels of Indian migration to Canada, I just don't want to end up on the bad side of that.

It's really difficult unless you're in tech, in tech the immigration system melts away at your feet

Idk which Nordic country you are in but for example in Denmark there's a scheme called fast track quick job start that can get tech workers (among others) a residence permit the same day someone applies, often within an hour of the application being filed assuming you go straight to their office to get fingerprinted.

SIRI puts a lot of work into making moving here easy if you're a net tax benefit (and imo that's a good thing)

Outside of skilled work and tech though I've heard getting a visa is pretty much impossible for non EU citizens

Canada is famously difficult to emigrate to.
