Not as big an ask as you're probably thinking. It was a "shotgun marriage" by the colonial British, and as far as I can tell enthusiasm for the arrangement was never that high among ordinary Anglo Canadians, either. I hear "they should just leave so we never have to talk about it again" semi-often IRL.
In the end, they've always (just barely) voted to stay for the convenience. If we were to join the Schengen area and the single market going forward, and maybe even the EU itself, it wouldn't really be a problem if they were technically a separate nation within it.

We have a good chunk of the technology. We should eventually build our own. After all, India built their nuclear weapons from Canadian tech.
On May 18, 1974, India shocked the world by conducting a test A-Bomb explosion it called 'Smiling Buddha. ' The nuclear explosive was plutonium, obtained from a 'peaceful' research reactor – a gift from the Canadian government in 1956.

Yeah, but proliferation is bad, basically. The more nations have nukes the harder it is to not use them.
That being said, we already have the CANDU reactors in Ontario churning out plutonium that we just bury. I've heard it estimated we could have bombs in like 3 months if we wanted.

I know there probably would not be that many issues with it but I was proposing it as a joke.

As someone working in the field, that's what makes everything happening the biggest US policy blunder ever. The NPT is dead in the water and it was completely preventable.
