I bet it would be appealing for Canada, but thats not my point. My point is calling 1/20th of the US GDP a “massive portion” is hilariously delusional, and its indicative of how out of touch New Englanders are that they think they are that essential to the country.

A nickel isnt a “massive portion” of a dollar. Its barely anything by comparison. Canada would double its GDP and the US GDP would hardly blink twice
