Canada has a land border with the EU

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago

And a maritime border too. I really don't know why or how the Netherlands come into the picture.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

It's always a land border if you go far enough underwater.

It'd be great to have Canada in the EU but they'd need to secure the southern border. Build a wall and make the us pay for it.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

They already did. It's called tariffs

Why Dutch? The easiest would be clearly to declare Canada a province of Greenland and have it thus become a part of Denmark 😎

Canada and the Netherlands have very close ties.

During WWII Canada sheltered the Dutch royal family and declared the hospital where princess Margriet was born to be Dutch soil. We could just expand that to the rest of country to be part of the Netherlands

A province of Greenland is a good one, also Saint Pierre and Miquelon are French islands just off the coast of Newfoundland

And the dutch would finally gain the land they desperately need

Ah ja, levensruimte!

I mean... So much space for activities!

United States of Canada has a nice ring to it I think

You've heard of USA and USB, now prepare for USC

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

and there's already a USD!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I wish Australia would join the EU. The US is an unreliable ally.

Take us with you... Sincerely, NZ

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

It goes without saying that this would be mandatory: No koalas, without kiwis!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 months ago

Hell, it's a reliable enemy.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 months ago

The Dutch are “enjoying” an ultra-right wing government that is openly supporting Diaper Donnie. Please, do not involve them.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

As a Canadian I approve, if it were to happen.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Maybe the Dutch can finally teach the Canadians how build a proper city.

Since Israel can join Eurovision festival I see no reason why Canada can’t join the European Union.

Ah, that’s what I had first, but then I was like, that doesn’t sound like music 😄

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

It's the vision of Europe in song form or some bullshit haha

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

At least join the broadcasting union so the UK can have another country to lose to in Eurovision.

Maybe not the EU but we could at least have Schengen.
