Should Canada merge with the USA?

[Priory Academy USSR]

A fucking delusional one, who's a glory hound but doesn't want to do anything that would get him fame by himself

All great men seem delusional to some of their contemporaries. If you aren't ruffling feathers than your doing it wrong.

Delusional people=/=great men.

Well, maybe 0.00000001% of them.

As a Canadian I cannot see the negatives outweighing the positives if we joined the USA. We're fine the way we are. Frankly if we were annexed to the US i'd be first in line to help start a resistance. The idea quite frankly DISGUSTS me. Not that I have a problem with Americans, I just LOVE Canada. Screw this idea, why would someone even seriously consider the idea in the first place?

And one other thing, I refuse to allow our maple syrup foundries be controlled by you!!!!

Long live the True North Strong and Free!

You sir (Greater Niffgard) seem to be quite ignorant about Canada - this should help. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV_041oYDjg

But canada has been a territory the entirity of it's existance i mean on paper it's still a colony of the English no?

Last time i checked anyway.

Well correction some of it has been a territory it's entire existance some of it is sovereign territory i guess if you want to call it that I wouldn't though.

No, please, go educate yourself

[Vetalia]

Australia this election, apparently.

Great, instead of Canada now our option is the country with all the weird-looking animals and giant spiders.

Actually it's even on paper that the UK has no legislative power over Canada: "No Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom... shall extend to Canada as part of its law."

Don't forget St John's, Quebec

If less than a percent of people support your plan, you're doing it wrong.

It's a start. I don't expect Canada to join the USA tomorrow. But hopefully as the years go one they will see the benefit of joining with us. They will realize that to align themselves with America is to align themselves with freedom, strength and prosperity.

Oh my gosh and you wonder why some Canadians joke about American ignorance so much (don't worry i love Americans and I don't think you're all ignorant )

[Ruridova]

That fucking Labrador. Seriously man.

Don't forget St John's, Quebec

And wouldn't having both the District of Columbia and American Columbia be mildly confusing?

We're already "aligned" with America, they've been our closest allies and trading partners for over a century...

As someone born and raised and living in America, WHAT BENEFIT?

The way the US is going you're rapidly losing all of those.

As Aristotle said once. There is nothing wrong with having a healthy respect for yourself. Indeed, it is a virtue.
Being a philosophical person, I admire his opinions on the matter greatly.

By being annexed into a economically weakened state where their vote would count for little when it comes to matters of the state.
Yeah good luck finding any sensible people to support that.

No, please, go educate yourself

Educate myself?

Why? Because i forgot for a moment that despite them not being apart of the English oversea's territory collection for a moment?

Honestly it's been a province for so many More important Nation's it's hard to recall when it was not property of some other Nation.

Although perhaps i should be more direct with my Humor in the future.

It's been a part of France and Britain... yeah, a province of SO MANY different nations...

[Scocialist Provinces]

Well, as a French and English-speaking Canadian, I'll have to put down your offer to ANNEX my fine nation, and I will stand by Canadian sovereignty, even if it means I have to pick up a gun and fight.

Why would we be unwilling to become part of the USA?

One: A religion-based government. Like it or not, the American government is heavily based on one's religious beliefs.

Two: We enjoy the way our own government is running this country, and the way our police and courts exercise justice in our cities, the way our mayors run our municipalities.

Three: I will not stand for the American-styles of education being integrated into Canada. I live in Alberta, and if you ask me, our curriculums, special needs curriculums, teachers, and reading material, are all fine, if not better than that of the States, where they are.

Four: I will not be dragged into a nation that spends a good majority of it's budget on pointless wars for oil, I will not be dragged into a pure capitalist economy, and I will not be dragged into a nation where the rich are prioritized.


Oh, and did I mention that I'm a minor who wishes he could vote already?
To be exact, I turn fifteen tomorrow.

Yeah. Like, forget all those previous Canadian provincial borders or linguistic differences. Manitoba? How about Upper Minnesota? And forget the Maritimes, they're French now.

No more confusing than North/South Dakota or West Virginia/Regular Virginia

Exactly. Zeonic, your argument actually falls a little flat because what is now the United States consists of former territories of France, Britain, the Netherlands, Russia, Spain, and of course the Sovereign Kingdom of Hawaii
