Next Canadian PM Mark Carney to Trump: 'Canada Never, Ever, Will Be Part of America' | Common Dreams
Maybe Canada can buy us out when Musk and Trump complete destroying the country
Speaking before the new leader was announced, former prime minister Jean Chrétien said Trump had united Canadians “like never before” and jokingly called on him to receive the country’s highest honours as thanks.
Saucy Chrétien's my favourite Chrétien.
I’m not saying this is going to happen but if we expanded the United States and took over Canada, how would the Republicans expect to ever win another election ? even if we only gave them five states they would get at that point 10 senators more than a dozen or so congresspeople, and then five really liberal governors.
I think they expect it to capitulate and become a territory like Puerto Rico with no benefits. The other half of the equation is that Reps are banking on there never being another election again.
But otherwise yeah, if Canada somehow got full statehood and added any number of states, Reps would never win again. The only Canadians who align with Republicans are the weird far right loons in the CPC. The LPC (and parts of CPC) are basically US Democrats, NDP is closest to the two or so progressives we have. Bloc Quebecoise would just cry at that point.
They're calling Canada the 51st state, not the 51st-55th state.

Yes, but somehow the US made it theirs.
That's being a bit pedantic. You know he's talking about the USA
I'm admittedly biased being a US American, but the only time I ever see anyone refer to any part of the Americas except the US as "America" is when they're trying to make this point. It never comes up in conversation otherwise.
I'm not saying that some people/places don't use it that way, but those people have never made it to the same parts of the internet that I inhabit.
Carney is right to say so.
