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.

You really, really don't want the whole thing.

It'll get renamed to 'Oh, hi eh!'

Sorry

Easy fix: Dig an Ohio-sized hole, fill Lake Erie back up with water and call it the Gulf of Intelligence.

USA? You mean North Mexico?

Invest in yellow light filters for Hollywood cameras, this shit is loco.

Washingtonian here. Always loved Canada, just waiting to be annexed in.

Can we make some of them territories so they can’t vote.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 days ago (2 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

Make Puerto Rico their bosses

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Hell no. Puerto Ricans overwhelmingly voted for Orange babboon.

“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.

What for? Why would anyone want to buy (even for free) 300 million of Americans?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 days ago (1 children)

They didn't say they'd be keeping the people.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

just a portion of magats voting would be enough to ruin canada within a decade, unless it's made only a 'territory' with a just single riding (like yukon, nwt, and nunavut each have)

Imagine Canada owning the Grand Canyon and Yosemite National Park.

We would be undeniably the most beautiful country in the world.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago

Canada already is undeniably the most beautiful country in the world. We don't need Yosemite lol

This is like going to the adoption agency and asking for the meanest, most disruptive child and then adopting that one.

idea: you guys invade and enslave all the rich white people, turn the entire thing into a streaming series.

New Yorkers rejoice knowing they're no longer the rudest countrymen now that the Quebecois are included

Sorry, we can only do with a 4th territory at best.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 days ago (3 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

We can do an administrative region, and pull a Puerto Rico on them.

Some of the states are cool. Let MAGA have their own states, so they can find out for themselves how their experiment sucks.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago

None of the states are cool. Outside of the cities and urban areas its a red majority country. Incredibly racist and misogynist.
