No thank you
Make them a territory.
While I would love to be inducted into proper healthcare and the loving embrace of our northern brothers, are you sure you can swallow all that red and not just end up with diarrhea?
Sorry, we can only do with a 4th territory at best.
USA? You mean North Mexico?
Invest in yellow light filters for Hollywood cameras, this shit is loco.
This is like going to the adoption agency and asking for the meanest, most disruptive child and then adopting that one.
Washingtonian here. Always loved Canada, just waiting to be annexed in.
Nobody doing the math on the number of seats that "province" would have? All other provinces would lose their power. You think the pull Ontario and Quebec have is bad? Hooo boy.
We can do an administrative region, and pull a Puerto Rico on them.
Just do it already. I'll fight to be Canadian 💪🍁
Professor Maxine Welkers of the University of Toronto Economics Dept. explains, “Given Americans’ low literacy rates, costly health insurance, and how much animal shit their FDA allows in their food, Canada annexing the U.S. is really more of a humanitarian gesture.”
That line is gold.
And true.
I do wish USA was like Canada
Can I offer you New York State and all the economic power that comes with it? The US can keep Staten Island. We put our garbage there.
Ahhh, finally! Peace!
Hahaha. For a moment I thought this was real news and some politician actually said this. Then I saw beaverton.
i don't want to be in a country with Ohio though
- sincerely, an American
Easy fix: Dig an Ohio-sized hole, fill Lake Erie back up with water and call it the Gulf of Intelligence.
It'll get renamed to 'Oh, hi eh!'
Sorry

“But then Trump went and, to use a macro-economic term, ‘shot America in the dick’. So now it’ll be easier to just buy the whole place.”
The greatest line Carney will ever utter.

Can we make some of them territories so they can’t vote.
The whole thing, can’t risk it. Plus it’s way easier to avoid any attacks on being biased if no.
However, we should make Puerto Rico a province.
Hell no. Puerto Ricans overwhelmingly voted for Orange babboon.
Make Puerto Rico their bosses
Canadian territories get to vote though
What for? Why would anyone want to buy (even for free) 300 million of Americans?
Imagine Canada owning the Grand Canyon and Yosemite National Park.
We would be undeniably the most beautiful country in the world.
Canada already is undeniably the most beautiful country in the world. We don't need Yosemite lol

We don’t want that dumpster fire. No thank you.
Some of the states are cool. Let MAGA have their own states, so they can find out for themselves how their experiment sucks.
MAGA can hop on Elon’s rocket and fuck right off to Mars.
None of the states are cool. Outside of the cities and urban areas its a red majority country. Incredibly racist and misogynist.
I'd back this eh. I think aboot it a loot. Eh. Bagged milk.
New Yorkers rejoice knowing they're no longer the rudest countrymen now that the Quebecois are included
America needs intervention to put it back in line
🌍🫡
MY BODY IS READY.
I'll chug maple syrup. Learn to ride a moose. Whatever it takes. But please make this happen.
Don't forget the poutine and beer.
