Damien Barry and Rob Calabrese

president Barry: Cape Breton website capitalizing on Trump fear worth millions in free advertising The tongue-in-cheek website pitches Cape Breton as an idyllic place to settle for those who contemplate fleeing the United States if Trump becomes president, according to CBC. Barry contacted the creator of the site, Sydney radio host Rob Calabrese, when he heard he was receiving thousands of inquiries and asked if Calabrese wanted to pass them on to him. Damien Barry is with the Sampson McPhee law firm in Sydney, and is himself an immigrant from Ireland. "Emigrating to Canada is not an easy process," said Barry. The island tourism marketing agency, Destination Cape Breton, has also been flooded with questions and Barry has been reading them as well. "No two inquiries have been the same," he said. Calling Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada is not really helpful, he said. Look to work or study With that in mind he produced a FAQs video on You Tube to give potential Trump flee-ers an overview on how immigration to Canada works. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
