If the US economy really tanked?

To the point that we were as bad off as Mexico, would you illegally immigrate to Canada? Or would you stand here and fight to get your country back?
Additional Details
Wasn't meaning to sound like I thought this would actually happen - just wondering if the whiney explanations of illegals would fly with us. I'm glad for these responses.

It would not get that bad, because Latin Americans are the poorest people in the world. As Americans, and as the richest country in the world, we would find a way to bounce back. I would never do anything illegally btw.

What makes you think the tanking of the US economy would leave Canada unphased? The economies of the USA and Canada are incredibly linked. If the US economy crashed the Canadians will be right there with us.

were too spread out to fight.

I would immigrate, but not illegally.

How would you fight to get your country back? 1 person, who doesn't even make the laws, isn't going to make a difference in a nation with a population of approxiametely 1 billion people.

Also, lets try not to "predict the future" as you are doing. It hasn't happened yet, so think positive, it will make you happy. :)

um the U.S. economy is directly connected to the rest of the world's major economies. if we tanked this would most likely create a domino effect and the global economy would be in a lot of trouble. but to answer your question, i would illegally immigrate somewhere if i had no other option and it was between starving to death, or living as an illegal immigrant

Yak-rider, you are absolutely correct. This is a dumb answer from a very ignorant person; and rightfully, there are quite a few ignorant responses.

I am not Mexican and I am not a Latin American or an Illegal. However, "illegals" or not, immigrants are not "lazy." If they were, they would stay at home and rely on welfare and foodstamps, or in jail, like many native-borns. Instead, they wait at home-depot for day-works. They work for a living and not relying on my tax money. That is all I care about.

If they deport all the illegal immigrants here, that's exactly what would happen! and I would stay put to help lift us back up.

I wish I has the $1500 in application fees to even try to move to Canada until we have a new President. I'd go legally because I'm not a lazy Mexican looking for free everything.
