Research TN-1 visas. No labour market assessment required. Need to have a degree or other significant experience though.
What is considered significant experience?
There's lots of minefields. I've never done it, just familiar with it.

If you didn't read the newspaper, how many of the negative things you mentioned would actually impact your life? Would you even know who was president for the last 4 (or the next 4) based on the impacts to your life? I'd guess not. Just live your life and be happy, vote when you can but don't let what you don't control make you sad.
Yes. I have two sisters that could lose access to birth control and planned parenthood. One of them dates a black man and already gets racial slurs thrown at them in public. These results are only going to embolden that behavior. America has voted for a mysogynistic sexist at its highest ceremonial office, you don't think that affects what is acceptable discourse? You don't think the SCOTUS is changed for a generatio…
By what specific mechanism could a Trump presidency cause them to lose access to birth control or abortion?

If you're lacking in historical knowledge then I can't help you Besides, most of the differences are non issues
To you? Maybe.
But yes, I'm good at adapting
The major tech centers in Canada have major housing price issues. The housing to salary ratio in Vancouver and Toronto are terrifying.
An exception is Waterloo.
[edit] just Raleigh mind you, The Triangle is much bigger than that.
As a Canadian who moved away, I must warn you that Canada has a form of dutch disease. Resource extraction investments have a much better risk/return ratio, so the pay doesn't even approach US levels. Thus software doesn't approach the levels of investment you have in the USA. And you thought SF was bad, wait until you see what has gone wrong with the housing markets in Toronto and Vancouver. I liked Canada and it's…

Gay marriage is here to stay because of a massive shift in public opinion on the issue which has been taking place over decades. None of that is going away.
I have a hard time believing you after Trump said that he would get someone to repeal Roe V Wade and now he has the house and senate to do it.

After two or three conservative justices are appointed the court your life will be mega affected. Are you gay? Kiss gay marriage goodbye. Right to privacy ? Gone. Wanna buy or own a sex toy? Those were illegal in many states until a progressive court put an end to it. A conservative court will absolutely reverse that. This is a huge deal.
Justice Robert's had a conservative record; Then he saved Obama Care.
At least up to 1989, there was no real predictability of Supreme Court Justices. I got the question wrong on a test. I'm lying--I got it right. I was trying to prove a point, by being theatrical.
I had a Professor drilled this paradoxical observation into our heads. He pointed to studies, but I'm too tired to look them up. It was in a national textbook.
Corp tax in Ontario is 15% and free health care. Dev pay also comparable. Come over :)

Are you glad to have moved? Any recommendations on cities to look at?
Stay away from Vancouver. Between the cost of living, low wages, and (What passes in Canada as an) extreme right-wing provincial government, it's a horror show.
Not sure about wages. I feel I'm paid a fair salary.
