Accepting pleas from other comments here, Canada could get away with about this. And if they have the whole Pacific border, I'll also throw in Hawaii for free.

Having Arizona would a big L for Canada

Yeah, but how else do they get Colorado and New Mexico?

Hm. Went with cutting Washington and Oregon in half rather than full take. Pretty bold, but makes some sense.

Eastern Oregon is already trying to join Idaho anyway

Theres citylife washington and middle of nowhere washington. Occasionally middle of nowhere washington likes to throw fits in the city to support trump because they have nothing better to do

Though i guess that goes with cali as well. Lots of the non cities in the west coast just really love trump despite reaping all the state benefits that are very non-republican.

Y'all are going to regret taking Arizona. And, frankly, everything in California not in view of the coast.

A couple tweaks: Include Illinois and the eastern part of Pennsylvania. (edit: I see you did get Chicago, maybe just go a bit further south?).

We should give Texas to Mexico just to spite them

I think they'd maybe rather be independent?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago

I don't think this is framed as a takeover.

Listen.

MD will take Pennsylvania and bring it into new Canadania as long as we can bring West Virginia with us too.

They’re dumb but they’re our dumbs.
