Escape to Canada (U.S.: Land of the Freer) is a 2005 Canadian satirical documentary film written and directed by Albert Nerenberg, with cinematography by producer Shannon Brown, the debut feature of their production company, Elevator Films, commissioned by the Documentary Channel, Canal D, and the National Film Board of Canada. The film examines the results of Canada's relaxing of its marijuana laws at the same time that same-sex marriage became legal, along with Canada's abstention from the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq having made the country a perceived haven for progressive Americans. The documentary's events begin in the summer of 2003 when both same-sex marriage and marijuana were legalized (temporarily, in the case of the latter). The film underscores the contrast between the liberal mo

  • Escape to Canada (conocido en Estados Unidos como: Land of the Freer)​ es una película documental satírico canadiense de 2005 escrito y dirigido por Albert Nerenberg, con cinematografía de la productora Shannon Brown, el primer largometraje de su productora, Elevator Films, encargado por Documentary Channel, Canal D y National Film Board of Canada. La película examina los resultados de la flexibilización de las leyes sobre la marihuana en Canadá al mismo tiempo que se legalizó el matrimonio entre personas del mismo sexo, junto con la abstención de Canadá de la invasión de Irak liderada por Estados Unidos, que convirtió al país en un refugio para los estadounidenses progresistas.​ Los hechos del documental comienzan en el verano de 2003 cuando se legalizaron tanto el matrimonio entre personas del mismo sexo como la marihuana (temporalmente, en el caso de este último). La película subraya el contraste entre el movimiento liberal en Canadá y la actitud más conservadora en los Estados Unidos, con la premisa de que "las actitudes liberales engendran leyes liberales",​ y que "Canadá, y no los EE. eminente país amante de la libertad".

The film underscores the contrast between the liberal movement in Canada and the more conservative attitude in the U.S., the premise being that "liberal attitudes beget liberal laws", and that "Canada, and not the U.S., is North America's pre-eminent freedom-loving country."
