Even if it could be done I see a major issue with no solution, what do you do with Quebec?

[Friendofgeorge]

Democrats would love it, GOP would not pick up many votes

The world’s largest theme park - French World.

I don’t want to have to deal with the Quebecois any more than the Canucks do.

[Jonty30]

As a state, Quebec would be responsible for its own affairs.

[Chode]

thank you... my first thought

[Friendofgeorge]

Quebec could be traded to France? And they could take their bilingual stuff with them

[quantim]

Same thing you with the US Senate.

Best part right here:

Also, to ensure continuity with our hallowed universal-health-care ideals, we Canadians would be provided with “fraud-proof health cards, valid anywhere in the 50 states, 10 provinces or three territories. Americans would not be entitled to this benefit.”

I mean, that's just adorable in so many ways. I have strong doubts as to whether this woman can be trusted with scissors.

And add selling back Detroit to the French.

NFL to 3 downs, I like that

Cut 'em loose, and merge with the rest! One fact not often cited by our Fifth Column - I mean Lame-stream Media, is that the Americans who fled to Canada during the Vietnam War were outnumbered by a factor of three by Canadians who came South to volunteer for service in our Armed Forces during that era.

I respect that.

The US should give Quebec New England and New York State and take Alberta and the Yukon in return.

Before fleeing to America, I was Conservative Party in BC. canadians are inherently anti-American (here comes the canuck morons who will shout me down again) and that’s what we’ve been taught in school and they have a really bad image of the GOP, thanks to the MSM. The daily rags are far, far worse than your local liberal daily.

[Friendofgeorge]

I know of what you speak!

>>The US should give Quebec New England and New York State and take Alberta and the Yukon in return.

Let’s give Canada all the Great Lakes states and New England. We’ll take the four western provinces and the territories in return. Then, we give California to Mexico.

Here’s a better Idea: Canada and the U.S. become THREE nations. Quebec establishes independence. The U.S. conservative states merge with the Canadian western provinces. Ontario and the U.S. northeastern states merge into a third country. Everybody’s happy!
