      Canada would never be state. A territory of unending insurgency at best, until the US killed every last one of us.

      I guess he’s also admitting to his desire of never having any new elections? As Canada would get like over 50 seats in the electoral college…

      That’s fair. There’s still sensible people in the USA.

      I was a little unclear before, the set of people who think this makes sense is entirely within the set of people in the USA. Which doesn’t and shouldn’t imply that all people in the USA believe that this makes sense.

      I apologize if there was any implication of lumping all Americans into the same pool of stupidity. That’s an insult to you and I am sorry.

      Have a good day neighbor.

        I don’t even think the people who voted for Trump had annexing Canada on their minds when filling out their ballots. Was it mentioned once during the campaign? I wasn’t listening, I knew I wasn’t gonna vote for him 9 years ago.

        I mean, until last month when cross-border relations got kicked in the teeth by the diaper in chief, what did I need the State of Canada for? I had the Nation of Canada right there. It’s not like we weren’t hugely cooperative trade partners or anything.

        Nah we’re good. I totally get the intent and point. And I’m one of the ones hit by the electricity thing. Sucks, but y’all have to fight back.

          Sorry about that. I’m not far from the border at Niagara falls and I know how much power is sent over the lines across the Niagara River (generally)… It’s not great, and I’m sorry you have been caught in the crossfire here.

          You don’t want this, I can assure you, we don’t want this, but it’s what is happening.
