Yes, Canada has a legal path to E.U. membership – but would it want this?

Joining the EU would be a massive undertaking that would have pretty big ramifications for our economy. I imagine a lot of companies would flee to the US to avoid all the rules that come with the EU, and that would decimate our economy sadly.

While I think it would be good in the long term, we'll have to see what happens with the Orange Fuckhead. If the US descends into a full fascist dictatorship (which let's be honest, it's well on its way) then it would be prudent to start the process. If Orange Fuckhead or his cronies don't get a third term, maybe our relationship can be healed with the US and we can return to normalcy. Hard to say.

I don't think its worth trying to repair the US relationship until they demonstrate the ability to go through at least a few sane presidents. Even if they manage to rid themselves of Trump and seem to be returning to sanity, they will probably just elect another lunatic again.
