We Don’t Surrender: Merging Canada Into The U.S. Would Be Too Absurdly Difficult To Even Discuss
-
would joining the two countries be better for everyone?
in some ways, yes . in a lot of ways, nobut no matter what way you spin it. it falls flat on its face after a bucket of cold realism is thrown over you.
The reality is Canadians would lose their rights as citizens and would be at best, passengers living in poverty. and at worst, would be slaveshundreds of thousands would go into poverty, be imprisoned by the occupants for not following their rules, or just straight up be deported or murdered. and yes I said occupants, it would be a military occupation for generations.
there are a select few things I'd be envious of being part of the US over. but the fact remains that im not a fucking idiot, and It would be a net negative for every single person in my country. I'm not going to play devils advocate for people who would be trying to kill us

Sometimes the decision to block an account is just trivial.

Aviation has just got its dick stuck too hard in the imperial can. Having to teach material where g=32 makes me want to eat glass.
-
we make the decisions about our nation.
of course you do

I’ll die for my land before I become a second class citizen to your empire, fascist

What? No it wouldn't!
I mean yes it would in application. But the human species has been invading and changing governments in other countries since the dawn of time.
It's possible. I assure you.
And I also wouldn't be upset if it happened. As an American.

Are you a vet?

They exist but are not circulated in nearly enough quantity so we basically collect them as oddities.

i only see them in Las Vegas, where theres millions of them.

NATO also doesn't specify that the attacker is excluded if they were a NATO member. It just states if am attacker hits one of the members article 5 goes into effect. So an attack on Canada brings 31 countries against the U.S.

Yeah, start a war with a nation you share the longest unsecured boarder with, filled with people who look and sound like you, who also have a history of record geneva convention additions. That sounds like a great idea, what with the USs great track record at winning wars of insurgencies.....

As an American, I'd be upset if it happened. It's bonkers to just be like, "oh other sovereign nation NBD you no longer exist," absolute madness.
Besides we could just (re)negotiate the trade agreements we have in place which apparently are so bad. I wonder who did a bad job with them last time we changed the framework and name of NAFTA ... Oh right the Trump admin.
There's no good reason, in my point of view, we couldn't have an equivalent to the EU for North and South America - freedom of movement, establishing standards, less friction when it comes to trade - but that would require some true visionaries with a lot of influence and power to work. I doubt it would come to be but I wouldn't be upset if it happened.
Won't someone please rid us of the meddling orange man and his sad lonely billionaire buddy.

Ok, if that's how you feel become a Canadian province then.

This is a world news sub... Not a patriotic America is awesome sub.
You're not welcome here.
-
Then why are you advocating for Canada to be merged into the US? Do you have it backwards?
-
why are we still discussing it then?
that was clearly meant just to provoke.
-
Can Canada just annex NYS then? No need to merge them all together, just take my state for now, and see how it goes.
-
Sure bud.
fascist
Be careful. That word is starting to lose meaning.
