Can we get a relocation care package for all of the reasonable people stuck in red state hell-holes!? I’d move to literally any blue state if I had the resources and reassurance it won’t be sucked into US federal far right bs. So done with this scam country.
Minnesota is basically already there
Calling Elizabeth May a lawmaker is the most credibility the federal Green party has ever gotten
Yes. One million times yes. Let’s watch the GOP fucking implode when the largest GDP State (CA) leaves their ass. It’s insane they are whining about our fires… Idaho was far more on fire this year than us in California. And that was all forest, not literal neighborhoods that 100% raked their fuckin leaves.
Take Oregon and Washington and the USA is left without a Pacific Coast…LOL!
But my manifest destiny!
Keep it down. We don’t want them figuring it out! (Also Alaska)
I live in WA and I want this more than anything.
Not just three, all the Blue States would like to switch to province.
:O take us away pls
I am Soooooo down for this!!!
Here’s a nice compromise position - Canada becomes a republic; in exchange, the West Coast and the East Coast down to Maryland (or Virginia) join as unincorporated territories or whatever the Canuck equivalent is.
please save us from Y’All Qaeda
I remember seeing something similar in the W days.
It is the fact that the US is a republic that is the problem. If any US states join Canada they do it as a province of the federation.
I refuse to have anything to do with having a m*narch on my money 😤
I’m fine with being a province, but it’s republic or bust
That’s ok. You stay where you are and we’ll stay a federation.
That’s it, I support the Quebecois now! They’ll understand the value of a good guillotine, at least
That’s why all the billionaires are in such a hurry to get to space. Guillotines require gravity.
I’m French and I shall work on developing railgun mounted guillotine to work in space
Sorry bud. Maybe move to a state that Mexico picks up?
Isn’t a guy on your money had a child from an underage slave or am I mistaking him with some other slave holding hero of the country?
If anything was really done, I assume it’d be just opening up (+incentivizing) immigration. Skilled labor/health/money probably will still be huge barriers, so I think the most effect it could have would be brain drain.
Canafornia, a Democracy with no need for an electorial college, and free of having the monarch on their money.
I doubt they’ll take #Arkansas, so I’m screwed either way until my familial duty is complete.
NWA here, yeah our guv’na is a fascist demon ready to put all non white christians into concentration camps
Speaking at a press conference last week in Ottawa, May called out the president-elect, saying, "Hey, Donald, have we got a deal for you? You think we want to be the 51st state huh? But maybe California would like to be the 11th province. How about it? California? Oregon? Washington?
I live in California and I’d like this. But then the USA would never have a non-GOP president ever again and that’s against my conscience.
At some point it stops being a game of “save everyone”, and starts becoming “save as many as you can”.
The “United States” is done anyway, there’s no way, ironically, to make America great again.
If there was only a way
One of the Mario bros knows how
Washington would fit right in. Western Washington is already a lot like British Columbia, and Eastern Washington is already a lot like Alberta.
Alberta, aka Hellberta, aka the Texas of Canada.
Oh come on, our power grid is not that bad.
No, but the right-wing mindset is.
News to me, same crazy people all over. But as Canada’s punching bag, feel free to take it out on Alberta.
I lived in Cowtown in 1979-82, before it was this bad. Kind of liked it then … not so much now.
I get the idea, but you have not lived here since 82. I have to travel a bit in the prairies and let me tell you a lot of Canada makes cowtown look like a progressive paradise. Is it worse now, yeah. Is it as bad as say a town in Manitoba or Saskatchewan? Nope, but we Canadians don’t like to think of our countries slide into right wing populism out side of Alberta.
It’s funny how much more favorable the comments are on this compared donnie’s original comments.
Canadians on joining the US: “oh hell no!”
Americans on joining Canada: “me too please!”
As a Washingtonian, I would LOVE for this to happen. It’s a shame she’s joking.
I mean, as a Canadian I would say come on and get this going. Hell Alaska can join as well.
Then tarriff the shit out of Trump for anything being shipped through new Canada from China lol.
entire west coast: let us in!
I don think you’d have to become part of Canada to join the Commonwealth so maybe there’s a chance?
As someone who lives in California, I would love this.
As someone who lives in Texas, I would also love this - once I gtfo of Texas
We’d love to have ya!
Have a chat with Hawaii, okay? Mom wants to go before she dies but she won’t go with Trump in charge. Get them on board and even the flight’s domestic. Woot!
Vermont… I think we could get this done pretty quick… In fact, I bet the rest of the US wouldn’t even notice… Bonus, we’ll bring Bernie.
Vermont is already a honorary Canadian province for producing so much maple syrup.
Making maple syrup is my favorite late winter activity! I suck at it and have no real setup so it always has an ash flavor… But sitting around a fire all day watching sap boil is very relaxing… Almost everyone taps a tree or two at least.
Can Maine come too?
Yeah, I think all of New England is down for this. Please.
Gotta get your politics in line… Ranked choice voting was a good start… Is that still a thing?
For federal offices yes, for state offices it would require a constitutional amendment. I think Maine is decently progressive despite the second district.
Maine can go to Spain, after all we already blamed the Maine on Spain.
But to get from Maine to Spain you must fly in a plane.
Upvote for semi-obscure history reference, which unfortunately most products of US education won’t get.
I’m so down for this.
American here. What’s a Vermont?
It’s where some maple syrup comes from. The capital is Montpelier.
That’s the full extent of my Vermont knowledge.
You mean pancake juice?
I think it’s a term for small, destructive animals?
Lol… It’s where Bernie kicked off the revolution
When did he kick it off and how is it going?
Like 9 years ago… Going great! I think we’re winning lol /s
