Jeff Cook Real Estate in Charleston, South Carolina, is taking advantage of many American's discontent with the 2016 presidential candidates with a humorous billboard that offers to help them move to Canada.

The billboard includes an image of Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton in front of the Canadian flag along with the words "Moving to Canada? We Can Sell Your Home."
