Good explanation from the author on how to move from the US to Canada, along with a reason that I think most, if not all, of us would agree with.
Though I think the author is a bit too nervous on a couple of minor points. FWIW I’m from the US originally and I’m fully into the buy Canadian / buy anything but US brands idea, and I don’t have the same reaction to seeing the Canadian flag everywhere - I think it’s great!
For anyone who is a US Citizen living abroad, here is one site some resources for how to vote abroad

I should also note that with local & statewide elections, the next elections you can vote in may be sooner than you think. You don’t have to wait for the midterms. There have been 61 elections since January across the US in just this year and many more scheduled. They typically get less attention but still have tons of impact
