It is clear that there is an agenda to annex Canada -- it is not a fantasy being spread by Carney

When the last of the rump-British empire collapses, Canada, which is still under its control, will collapse with it.

The USA will be there to pick up the pieces.

The globalists have long plotted for a “North American Union”, like the EU, on a path toward global government.

… a plan to annex Canada or force Canadian provinces one by one to choose the option of seeking statehood as their citizens come to the conclusion that Canada is incapable of meeting their economic basic needs.

I don’t want my government to focus on meeting anyone’s “needs.” I want it to focus on creating and protecting an environment of liberty and self determination in which the people can meet their own needs.

Nunavut might be the only thing that remains of Canada as it becomes a colony of China and India.

Ironic that you don’t have time for idiots, given what you have just posted.

Why would we annex Canada with no plan to eliminate their leftist voters? It would be SUICIDE for the USA.

Author sounds a bit ‘triumphalist’ himself - most Americans don’t give a cr*p about Canada, and don’t think about it even on a weekly basis.

Well, there's also the Toronto Blue Jays.

Would uniting with Canada mean we would have to change to kilometers and Celsius, and have to say "eh" at the end of every sentence (to make them feel welcome)?

I think the War of 1812 killed any sentiment in British Canada for becoming part of the US. Of course some of them were Loyalists who had left because of the American Revolution, but others were Americans who had moved into Upper Canada for farms.

Having all of Canada as one state would be ridiculous--more land area than all 50 states combined.

The average income in the US is higher than in Canada so I am doubtful about the claim that the parts of the US just south of the border are poorer than the parts of Canada just north of the border.

Canada should form a military.

Not all Canadians are looked down upon. Only the French Canadians.😁

Per the Scotians, the British should have kept going all the way to the Pacific in driving the French out.

I don't think there's any "plan" to annex Canada. What I think is that Trump is tired of Canadian freeloading in terms of defense and trade.

The extra economic and political pressure Trump is exerting in pursuing American goals is simply bringing out the existing fault lines in Canadian politics.

That freeloading, especially in defense, will simply no longer be tolerated: if Canada is incapable or unwilling to defend its vast Arctic territories the US will act to do so regardless of claims of Canadian sovereignty. The same is true for Greenland.

My opinion is that there is indeed a real desire in corridors of power in Washington DC, a plan to annex Canada or force Canadian provinces one by one to choose the option of seeking statehood as their citizens come to the conclusion that Canada is incapable of meeting their economic basic needs.

~~~

I stopped reading there.

I have met and talked to enough Canadians to know that they would NOT give up their socialist ideals nor their strange but powerful combination of contempt and chip-on-shoulder feelings about the United States. At least the Ontarion variety of Canadians, anyway. Falling on some economic turmoil would not be enough.

There may be some differently minded Canadians in the western provinces, but even of that I am skeptical.
Two or three decades ago, I think British Columbians would have entertained the idea of joining America, and there was talk of it around the same time Quebec was seriously trying for secessionist independence.

Since then, BC became infected with the same west-coast leftism disease that spread from California all the way up to Washington.

I don't want U.S. to annex Canada. I want Canadians to get their identity and freedom back, and be the best partner and friend possible to this country. A free Canada and a restored U.S. would be formidable partners to finally right many of the wrongs of this world -- and also to stand against China. Of course, this depends on Canada being able to get its act together, which seems impossible at the moment. But if there emerges a nation of "West Canada" (BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba), it could become a great partner of the U.S.

But Greenland? Annex -- definitely annex. Territory or protectorate also acceptable.

Canada had a host of behaviors not characteristic of an ally. Trump knew three of the four Western provinces were extremely unhappy. Quebec is always unhappy. Destabilize federal Canada and get the Western provinces to form an energy and mineral cartel with the US, and maybe Mexico.

Canada has had it coming. Trump gave it to Carney.

I would agree. The only problem is that they are landlocked.

If they could get BC to join them they could have a fine country. Or Manitoba would probably be more realistic.

I’ll take this seriously after Puerto Rico and DC get statehood.

The only reason for the establishment wanting Canada’s resources is to shut using them down. They have been trying to shut the US resources down.
