Ahh I get what you mean. I thought you were being hostile. My bad.

Is the US really just a union of states though? Is it not a country with its own well.. everything. Culture, history, currency, ideas, people, etc. Shouldn’t that be protected just as in Canada? Can’t we make deals and agreements without joining as one? We do that now.

I just wonder if we were all states, who would be our federal government to govern all that. I know Canadians wouldn’t want US politics mixed in with ours. I honestly don’t think Americans would want anything to do with Canada and its culture. American pride no? You guys will have to deal with the French. 😂

All Louisiana law is french-based. Texas was a foreign country before joining. Puerto Rico may become a state.

I think the point is that trade subsidy between Canada/US is greater than the biggest US state receives from its fed govt.

US taxpayers finance this subsidy through deficit spending and inflation, so they want a stronger union for the cost or to not have to spend such a large subsidy on a foreign country.

I don't think anyone wants to erase Canadian cultures and I don't think Canadians want to sever economically from the US.

Its like when your girlfriend says she doesn't want to be fucked anymore if you're not going to marry her.

I think in this case Canada doesn’t want to get married and just wants to be friends with benefits. 😂

Canada won’t be that committed. What can Trump do though? I know about economic pressure. But some joke about invading. Slim chance.

Nah there won't be invasion, don't worry about that at all. Thats counterproductive to everyone's interests.

Heavy tariffs coming tho
