The claims about Jimmy Kimmel ending his nighttime show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, have spread on Facebook. A post alleged that the television host opted to do so following Donald Trump’s election victory. Despite the rumor going viral online, it is worth noting that they are not true and are purely satirical in nature.

“Jimmy Kimmel Show to End January 20th: “I’m Leaving for Canada and Never Coming Back”
The social media post amassed over 800 reactions and more than 580 comments.

The Facebook post also shared a screenshot of an Esspots website story. An article published by the website claimed that Jimmy Kimmel said:

“Honestly, I never thought it would come to this. But here we are. After January 20th, the last

episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! will air, and I’m off to Canada. Maybe I’ll open a little comedy club in Toronto, or maybe I’ll just disappear into the Rockies. Either way, I’m leaving and never coming back.”
Speaking about his decision to move to Canada, Jimmy Kimmel said, as per Esspots:

“I’ve heard polar bears are more reasonable to deal with than certain voters. I just need a place where people don’t think ‘fake news’ is anything they disagree with. I’ll take my chances in Canada, where people actually believe in science, and maple syrup flows like water.
