Seems to be many reasons to have Canada join - shared resources, defense, access to natural resources, population redistribution to name a few 🤷♂️

Of course. Even more would apply to Mexico, and to a United World.
And in my opinion: a whole massive bunch of even more powerful reasons would apply to the complete dismantling of the US (and Canada, and Mexico, and all the rest), into small community-level sovereign territorial entities...
It's never for a lack of "reasons"...
What strategic advantage is there to join with Mexico? We don’t have that many threats down there?
Canada makes more sense geographically speaking.
Wouldn't you prefer to control a southern border that's only 600-ish miles (Guatemala and Belize), instead of 2000+ (currently with Mexico), and be able to erase the cartel problem forever? Isn't that and human trafficking some of the biggest REAL problems the US has?
Plus you get, REAL, not theoretical, natural resources: gas, oil, land for cattle and to farm infinite agricultural products from a variety of climates, not to mention thousands and thousands of additional coastline and access to fisheries. And 130 million new citizens/consumers. "Demographic crisis" solved.
It would be interesting to see what Canada/Canadians would do/say if the US pulled its military protection and stopped buying Canadian goods full stop.
Canadians are self-righteous, and like to think they “are better” than American. They have no military, no means of defense from an arctic threat from China/Russia, and no infrastructure to sells its oil/gas to any major nation other than the US.
Could this change? Of course, but it would require years to implement, and they are so deep in debt, on an individual, provincial, and national level that it would require a shit ton of foreign investment…….Canada’s cooked.
Trump knows it, the rest of the world knows, and Canadians may be finally waking up to it.
What if the US is the threat to Canada and removing military support and purchasing freed Canada to join BRICS and get military and purchasing support from China and Russia and suddenly the U.S. had a BRICS nation on it's border?
Oh no wait, that's Ukraine, sorry I was getting confused.
Hypocrisy would rear its head I suspect
My father in law, a retired doctor, took an oath to hypocrisy 😂
I don't trust the science, either
Yeh, I only trust politicians 😂
Of course. And their three word slogans. DON'T FUCK MONKEYS is a good one
According to What3Words, that’s in the centre of the Chamber of the House of Lords 😂
Hardly surprising. I'll ask a friend of mine, he works there
Your friend works in the house of Lords.
Now who's all lardy dardy 😂
One does one's best, don't you know
Wot ho
I help out at a charity that my friend helps out to. He's a life peer, so not a real one!
I sold a classic car I owned during lockdown to a Lord, but not a real one, one of those titles that you can buy off the Internet.
My Dad wasn't a lord or anything, but he advised government a lot and was regional chairman of the CBI with Digby Jones, so spent quite a lot of time in the house of lords and commons, so I know quite a few lardy dars by proxy.
When I started dropping some Lords names, I became suspicious when he didn't know any of them, so I enquired further and he admitted it was a bought title 😂
No my friend is definitely one. I'm not naming him on purpose, he's a bit famous in certain circles. Not A list celeb but known. He went into politics but still occasionally treads the boards. He introduced me to Gandalf!
