No shit he wants to anex canada. He's a fucking fascist and musk is taking over the government. Jfc i hate this.
As a Canadian I fail to see how this will ever make me want to join the US.
Canada will outlive Trump.
Let's join the EU
Can we sell ourselves to Denmark and join Greenland?
Speaking as a random Dane, I'm into it and willing to pay up to $20 for Canada as a (very) early Christmas present for Greenland.
Look at Mr. Moneybags here!
I'm ready for Danelaw 2.0!
Technically there is a land border betweenen the EU and Canada, so makes sense.
You are probably going to fare better by annexing New York.
Or, maybe you can do both.
I will never join the US
What do you have against incompetent brutally cruel fascist oligarchies?
You said it!
Can you take the coastal states? Particularly the west coast? We're tired of being part of America.
As a Canadian, 100% would embrace the west coast and New England.
We can call it Americanada and it would be awesome.
As a Canadian I can't see how annexing Canada will make America better? Also, lotssa luck with the guerilla warfare when your opposition is the same colour and speaks the same language.
"You're not making ~~Christianity~~ America better. You're just making ~~Rock & Roll~~ Canada worse."
They'll use all sort of dirty tricks just like the Gestapo did, like making you say the letter "Z", or making you spell the word "colour".
It's the worst timeline alright.
Does he not realize if Canada becomes a state a republican could never hold the presidency again? Right wing canadians are further left than american Democrats.
Literally we have Trump supporters here and constantly vote for obviously corrupt people. Alberta and Ontario being clear, loud examples.
So, no, I’m glad it makes you feel good and all but that is a profoundly stupid thing to say and I don’t want to get dragged into your not-seeing-the-obvious thank you very much.
I realized shortly after posting that comment there would be a low chance that canada would be a state. It'd probably be more like Puerto Rico, pay taxes, but not vote for anything that matters outside of the territory.
I was aware of the maga nuts in Canada, I didn't realize they had enough votes to actually matter though. Plus y'all burned down the white house once, I'm sure even the craziest canadian would be made about losing their sovereignty. Surely?
You underestimate how stupid conservatives are, then. We’re about to vote in a Conservative government because our mediocre centrist has fallen apart and despite having a very valid third option with a left-but-not-radically-so party we refuse to acknowledge that. That white house thing happened two-hundred years ago, the last Conservative PM we had, Stephen Harper, did nothing but raise the deficit and be a little bitch and yet our moronic, brain-dead conservatives keep acting like he was some big strong tough boy. Conservatives in Alberta just recently decided that CO2 isn’t a pollutant because it made them feel better.
We are stupid up here, like the U.S.-lite, and our individuality is in tatters. We’re still better off that that shithole by a long way but the bar is also in hell, so.
They still love voting against their best interests though, so maybe they would join in. Also who's to say canada would get to vote.
