One in five Americans (20 per cent) polled by Leger this week say they would like their state to join Canada, more than double the proportion of Canadians who said they would like their country to become the 51st state of the United States. Article content

“Only 9 per cent of Canadians believe it is likely that Canada will become the 51st U.S. state. By contrast, 20 per cent of Americans would like their state to join Canada and become a Canadian province, a proportion that is higher among respondents aged 18 to 34 (30 per cent),” reads the new Léger report.

Red States could finally achieve their dream of being third world countries 🥰

Oh without blue states to help them they still have a long way to go to reach the point where they should be considering their political decisions.

If the USA leaves NATO it technically becomes a Third-World Country. Enjoy!

NATO membership isn't a requirement to be a developed country though
