Not sure about Canada, but you can get a work visa no problem for New Zealand, but you have to have the job before you go, and usually the visa only lasts for as long as the job lasts.

Most people think that if you are from the U.S. they say come on in...not so much. You can visit, but you can't stay.
I think it's a lot easier if you have enough money to start a business.

Absolutely, if you have enough money to invest in a company that will hire x amount of employees, almost any country will take you.

It's pretty close to that right now. Canada is about first choice. Venezuela might accept a few thousand for publicity value before closing the door. Presently Israel will accept you if you are Jewish, but that will likely change. Brazil? Will non whites be able to flee?

True. But then again: if your country was in the process of exploding, you could present yourself as a refugee .

Funny...why is it so easy to "immigrate" from Mexico to the USA?

My friend moved to NZ about a year ago, and it's working out really well for him, and he's quite happy he made the jump.

Well thank you...the reason I made my sarcastic comment was that all of you seem to think that the US "going to hell" means we have more non-whites, then I'd be more than happy to have fewer people with your mentality in the US.
