Former German Foreign Minister Gabriel proposes Canada's EU membership
-
But then we Europeans would have a border with the USA.
Not sure if I want that.
-
Sorry, I didn't have my microscope with me.

You mean they'd elect someone to say that the
EuropeanAtlantic Union should be a US state or else? -
-
Perhaps a line comprised of the northernmost US states could form a separate country as a buffer zone.
"The Union of Somewhat Less Barbaric United States of Northern America" or something
-
Spain too, please. He can go "rule" Nicaragua or something, idk

Dominion of the Europeans and their former colonies?

Céline please.

What about Russia? I mean hypothetically, if they weren't being utter cunts, of course. What makes Russia Russia is entirely in Europe, but the country is so stupidly big, 2/3 of its land is still in Asia.
Similar question for Turkey. They have East Thrace in Europe, and around half of their biggest city, but almost everything that makes Turkey Turkey is in Asia. They're arguably much more Asian than Russia but somehow they'd be considered for application if their government were to become civilised.

Perhaps we can consider them to be Eastern Greenland?
-
Especially Scotland
-
The point isn't that it's fast nor that it's easy, but that it is entirely doable if you just want it to be done
-
But aren't our standards, like, communism?

The White House has been looking a lot more burnable than it did in the past tbh

Please don't make any more music =/

Brian Adams it is!

Or better yet, visit Canada and every other EU country with just one visa, instead of several dozen for each. Yeah, not every EU country is part of Schengen, and there are non-EU countries that are, but I always thought this is cool.
My country does require a visa for EU entry despite being literally 14km away from one of its members, separated only by the Strait of Gibraltar, so I'm not really that lucky. But I least I wouldn't have to go through the tedious visa application process all over again.

Send Faouzia please. She's badass.
I know everyone in the Eurovision fandom keeps telling me that Morocco should participate again and have her as the representative, but nah, I think Canada is the better choice (I am Moroccan).

Russia absolutely would be a candidate if it ever will fullfill the requisites - the absolute majority of the population lives on the European side of the Ural anyway.
In reality Russia always had the false "world power" idea so they never even considered it (and besides always weren't even close to fullfill any criteria).Turkey was actually on it's way towards becoming a candidate in the early 2000 years, but there was heavy resistance from some countries (mainly the conservatives/right wings in Germany and Austria), but they were also against the Baltics, the Eastern European states, etc. Which is now totally acceptable.
It ended with Erdogan becoming what he is now. Today I see no chance that they will become a member within the next 30 years as the rules have tightened in some aspects.
