How about the US just becomes provinces 14-64? I’ll gladly take anything else.
Nah sorry we’re not taking the red states. They can be their own Christofascist hell elsewhere.
Can I raise you the proposal of Canada and Jesusland
this looks like a dragon head with cat / dragon torso and cat legs
Indeed, I like that map.
Alaska needs to be integrated though, don’t want another Kaliningrad.
Good point, but it’s an F’n red state.
make a list of the ones y’all want we can work out a deal
So just all of new england, the pacific northwest and California.
California already goes to Denmark though
You want more convoys? Ingesting the US will give you nothing but cancer. If it’s not a city or a suburb, you’re just absorbing indoctrinated fascism. It’s pervasive.
Yea, I’ll take the top 20.
Mexico can take the bottom 30
I mean we did kinda get our asses kicked in 1812 after we started a war the president would later say we were unprepared for.
Why not? I would vote yes to allow Canada into the EU.
Might be some geographical issues (perhaps of the ocean variety) with this proposal
Well, Ireland is separated from the rest of the continent by ocean. Canada is just a slightly bigger island, slightly further away…
There is French territory just off the coast of Newfoundland too (see Saint Pierre and Miquelon), also Denmark is right next door because of Greenland. So while still pretty far fetched, there is some precedent for European territory in North America.
Canada shares a land border with Greenland on Hans Island.
Ireland is separated from the rest of the continent by ocean.
The Celtic Sea is not an ocean.
By that logic then Vancouver Island isn’t an island because the Juan de Fuca is a strait not an ocean
They didn’t say Ireland wasn’t an island because of it… But, for the record, Canada isn’t an island anyway so…
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I wasn’t awake when I wrote that but I still think they meant to imply it doesn’t make it an island. Poor reader here I guess.
Maybe canada can be the first member of a post-European EU. I guess we’ll need a new name.
Cyprus is already the first non-European EU member.
Earth United!
Sounds like a football club that has no one to play against.
Earthed Union the EU.
White supremacist imperialist conglomerate (non-US version)?
Once again, we are forced to raise the lingering question: Are Italians White?
new caledonia and french guiana are laughing it up from the southern hemisphere
Washington, Oregon, and California as Canada’s 12th province. Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Ohio, and the northern 20% of Illinois and Indiana as the 13th.
I only hear Americans pitching this idea. Canada doesn’t want any of the states haha
The sane ones of us who live in those states are desperate. Soory
I’m Canadian, I don’t hate the idea.
In any case, it’s clear that the USA is less “United” these days… It’s more just … The States of America now.
There’s like a lot of shitty people even in those states. I love Washington but no thanks.
Wouldn’t need to stick exactly to the current state boundaries. Trim off the eastern parts of some of those states on the west coast. And get enough territory to fully encircle the Great Lakes, extended enough to include Minneapolis, Madison, Milwaukee, Chicago, all of Michigan, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and parts of upstate New York.
Idk. I haven’t met enough people from any of these states to have an opinion.
Well just look at how many of them voted for trump. People in canada would have never voted for that.
Which is all part of the EU. Sign me up
The EU 🇪🇺 is more than welcome to include Canada 🇨🇦 as the 28th member state 🤝
Guys guys guys, let’s be good friends with the EU, let’s even adopt some of their best policies, but honestly, they also have some baggage we don’t need.
Believe me, we don’t want Orban either…
I just want to be sovereign. How is that so hard for people to understand?
EU members are all sovereign, brexiter.
I’m Canadian.
No, I understand that. I was making a rhetorical point. You’re making the same uninformed argument that was behind brexit.
Username checks out.
Ya both those prospects seem “Colonial”
Worth it.
Türkiye is gonna be pissed.
Türkiye needs to get rid of its Erdoğan problem then.
I’m super jealous because I’ve wanted to have Canadian citizenship since back in my late teens / early adulthood when I realized that there was already a version of America that actually lived up to American ideals and which offered same-sex marriage as well as universal healthcare. That weed and apparently codeine are legal there make it so much more bittersweet.
The only people I’ve known personally to get citizenship are those who married a Canadian citizen. Which sucks for me because I’m already happily partnered and there’s no way I’d give that up for anything, not even Canadian citizenship, awesome and appealing as it is.
Maybe if/when the US invades, if we fight for Canada they’ll give us citizenship.
FWIW I obviously don’t have the power to approve that but I would certainly vote to make that a thing!

I had an American friend who married a Canadian. It took SO much work to get her permanent resident card, like a lawyer and everything.
Unfortunately, Canada has MAID, and also likes to deny healthcare to natives in the hopes that they will just die.
Fortunately, Canada has MAID. Unfortunately, Canada has MAID in place of meaningful care.
Shocking. Do you have a source for that?
Thank you so much for linking that! I really appreciate it. Usually a lot of people get mad when I ask for a source. I just wanna learn!
Legal marriage and having a life partner are not the same thing. I’ll marry you and my partner will marry your partner, no big deal.
Can’t we just harvest the states that want to leave?
Wouldn’t mind it one bit
At a minimum any states bordering Canada, including those bordering the 4 Great Lakes shared with Canada, should get a vote of which country to go with.
Pennsylvania is 100% included, and honestly if Indiana and Illinois go for it despite being on the “wrong” Great Lake, I’m not going to complain.
You can give us Buffalo any day. I love that city so much.
Can we Philadelphians join?
👀
Any reasons why these two neighborhoods go against the grain? Are they the posh suburbs?
As someone from a South Jersey suburb of Philly: take me with you!
No, you guys know what you’ve done
I’d be happy if we could just join the EEA. I want to be able to work in the EU.
I think it is not that hard for you if you are a Canadian citizen. The language is the real problem.
It is as difficult for us as it is for an American. It’s not very common to be able to get a work permit without an employer sponsoring you and most EU employers have enough selection in Europe they don’t need people from North America.
I speak French (fluent), Spanish (good but not well enough for a formal workplace), and enough Danish to make myself understood
Is Canada having issues with sovereign autonomy? Why even sit at the table?
