but if the meme wasn't a military takeover, but was a 10-year economic zone structure, with greater border cohesian and cross-nation service recipricity or w/e

I still think Canadians would majority refuse and be mad about it regardless

way less than even the EU

I think NAFTA was the farthest Canadians were okay with

if we wanted to absorb Canada, I think we could do it, Trump is just memeing obviously

but it would be a 20-year process minimum

You have more military than the rest of the world combined

I think you could absorb literally any country with enough effort

Cultural absoption also possible, but you would have to effectively destroy Canada worse than Canada has already destroyed Canada to do it

The problem is, we'd have to make the US more attractive as a country first, right now we're both in decline (albiet Canada faster than us)

the US has lost to China in like every simulation the pentagon has done for like 10 years

Also I think US absorbing Canada would make you guys be purely blue forever, so I do not think Trump actually wants that

unless you trust the redditors who say this was the last election ever, then it does not matter

Republican/Democratic voting patters always normalize to 50/50

that's not a reason to not enfranchise more states, or split up current ones

Absorbing Canada means more Indians, it's a net loss

Canadians also would not give up our health care system

If we made ours better they would

Trump will deport them all

Our system SUCKS

You would have to make yours taxpayer based

iirc pika, Trump would have won the election even with Canada's theoretical Electoral votes

also ^

Yeah but trump is not running again

Dialga is unirronically right

canada is slightly more populous than california

you aportion the EVs they'd get, Trump still eeks out a win

I think if Dems ran anyone other than Kamala, Canada's electoral votes would have pushed it blue

they ran the worst people both times he won

all 3 times he won

hillary was a better pick than kamala at least

Hillary also did not lose by as much

I just think over-time, our stupid system pushes the parties to 50/50

obama hasn't ruined the country as much as biden

and Canadians don't have some gene in them that makes them different from us

trump needs to figure out how japan established a permanent supermajority conservative party

Idk Spooky, we are looking like a Bloc Quebeqois second place win

we are built DIFFERENT

Honestly, Quebec would be the only reason I'd like trump to take Canada

I want to see him have to deal with them

He'd release them

first thing

They'd 100% insist on being independent, and also many other provinces would

independent saskatchewan

oh yeah btw

has turdoo resigned yet

No, he said he wasn't

I feel like Toronto would unironically be the most opposed Vancouver, Quebec The Maritimes, the Interior, the Far North, and the Indian tribes could all be reasoned with

in his press conference

oh

so when does he get kicked out

He can call an election whenever, I assume its going to the maximum though

Oct 20th

is the date it has to happen by

so then or sooner

if they no confidence vote him, (which would require NDP to actually flip) then he'd be done

NDP already said they won't

which is further tanking the NDP into irrelevancy

NDP is just playing both sides ^

NDP is playing neither side, thier base is furious

wouldnt a vote of no confidence be the best option for them atm

My read is he thought he'd get concessions to stay loyal, got none of them, and then backed down anyway

There is a reason Bloc is likely going to be second place, behind Cons winning and Libs in third

why would they not protect themselved by stabbing turdoo in the back

they'd need more votes Dialga, it's no-confidence of the current party in power

We literally have a year Dialga

if he stood down

there is a chance they could save official opposition

Bloc winning second place is kind of a meme, but there is a real chance

Quebec mainly votes Lib or Bloc, and all the lib voters are voting bloc

We will know more in July/August, since Canadian election cycles are really only 2-3 months

Trudue is literally throwing free money at people, I am getting 250 in the mail as a rebate now that our postal service is back up

(they got forced back to work, no deal given)

and he is still hemeraging in all polls

People are pissed about housing and food, and rightfully so

I think anything short of immediate rent control, mass deportation of indians, and some way to lower food prices will not save him

I am paying 1780/month for rent, that is a great price considering what rent averages is

he should call a referendum on annexation just to show trump how much canada doesn't want it

Why would he do that, we already know the answer

that will just be seen as a waste of everyones time, and lose him further support
