I expect Trump to get curb stomped. But one should prepare for the worst even when one is not expecting it. Rather than entertaining unrealistic (and frankly, unpatriotic) plans to flee to Canada, here are some things I think you should consider doing sooner rather than later.
Download Signal and get in the habit of using E2E-encrypted communications before Trump comes to power and either bans the apps or starts monitoring who is downloading them in the immediate aftermath of his return.
Optionally, you may want to learn how to procure and maintain a burner phone, but the former has become quite challenging and the latter requires a considerable amount of know-how to do properly (e.g. do not turn it on within range of your home wi-fi).
3. If you are a member of a targeted population or have neighbors who are members of a targeted population, consider doing contingency planning (in person or over Signal) in advance regarding, e.g., hiding spots for people if a raid is occurring.
4. You should already be doing this for disaster purposes anyway, but have a go bag ready at all times with a water bottle, a change of clothes, a flashlight, a battery pack, a multi-tool, a first aid kit, etc. If you aren't living hand-to-mouth, I would suggest having some large-denomination cash on hand in case you need something quickly and without questions, or because you want to be able to get around without being immediately tracked by your purchases.
5. [One more possibility that I will not put in writing.] If you expect civil conflict, use your imagination here.
