Montana should be sold to Canada to help pay off some of the U.S.'s national debt, according to a petition on Change.org.

Ian Hammond, the petition creator, wants to sell The Treasure State to the nation's neighbor to the north for $1 trillion.

“We have too much debt and Montana is useless. Just tell them it has beavers or something,” the petition description read.

More than 7,000 people have already signed the petition as of Tuesday. The petition was looking to garner at least 7,500 online signatures.

Assuming this is the left, they only care about the national debt when a Republican is president.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

I’d rather sell them California.

Sell Mexifornia and N Dork to Canada

[Tea Party Terrorist]

But we do know that Republican Presidents simply do not care about the national debt.

[sparklite2]

Canada has a trillion dollars?

[Bulwyf]

California for Alberta. Deal.

[Lopeover]

Nut jobs. Yeah, Sell California to the Mexican Cartels!

[chrisser]

I’d be tempted to give Canada $1trillion to take NY and CA.

[Publius]

Better to sell Alberta to the US.

[noiseman]

”I’d rather sell them California.”

Me too, but the Canadians would never take that deal. California owes more than it’s worth.

[Billthedrill]

They’ll never fall for it. They’re still pissed about Gretzky.

>>I’d be tempted to give Canada $1trillion to take NY and CA.<<

And a draft pick to be named later.

[HombreSecreto]

I’d rather sell them California.

[MrEdd]

Another vote for selling them California.
Or Illinois.

Sell Montana to Canada for $1 trillion

Joe would have been worth this in the 1980s ... but he's retired and past his prime.

[max americana]

as an ex-canadian, the stupid country does not have 1 trillion US (or equivalent CDN 1.3 trillion) to spare,

I have a better idea: let’s deport these clowns who came up with this retarded idea instead.

[Red Badger]

How much can we get for Minnesota?..........................

[Durbin]

So what would stop the US from adding that trillion back to the national debt over the next year?

[Publius]

I have a better idea: let’s deport these clowns who came up with this retarded idea instead.

How there's an idea! For every God-fearing conservative Canada sends us, we'll send them 100 of our liberals.

[pepsi_junkie]

Better idea: lets just sell California back to Mexico. All their immigrants can move there and we’re free of it. Win win!
