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.

Seize Canada and then sell it back to them for 2 trillion or the highest bidder.
and New York and Oregon, and etc., etc.
Besides, we are 22 Trillion in the hole; selling one state won’t make a dent of change in that overall debt OR our government’s continued spending habits......
I’m not sure why you have such a hate on for Alberta. Perhaps it’s just that my sarcasm detector has malfunctioned?
I was born there but now live on the coast. I travel back there at least 3 times a year to visit family and friends. While there, I miss the big trees and the sea. While here, I miss the uncompromising landscape and the sky that goes on forever.
Simple manners and common courtesy seem to state that if you have nothing pleasant to say, one should remain quiet.
An extension of that same adage goes to the extent of warning that:
“It is better to be silent and thought a fool, than to open one’s mouth and remove all doubt.”
Have the kind of day you deserve.
Chump change. Imagine how much we could get from Mexico for Cauliphonya. Talk about a useless state.
Sell them NY so it can become South Quebec.
Seeing the signage become quebecoise would be hilarious.
Nope, just tired of all the rejects from other states ruining mine
Deport the libs from Montana and Canada to Iran and nuke it from space. It’s the only safe way to save a lot of great folks in both places.
Keep Montanta, give away D.C..
It cold period. And just never liked it no hate BC is just better.
Well done. Surprising it took to post #53 to show up.
I would rather give Dearbornstan and the immediate area to Canadastan. Give it to them for free.
because it has no ocean access ...
The paper on the national debt is held by the crime families that make up the federal reserve. Just tear it up, tell the fed to pound sand, and replace the federal reserve currency with U.S. Notes. They've stolen at least as much as the 'debt' from America over the years.
No, let’s keep Montana. Canada can take Jon Tester though. Please.
Not Montana!
Sell them Minnesota - let the tolerant and compassionate Canadians deal with the Somalis. I’m sure they would jump at the chance to show the rest of the world how the Somalis should be handled.
Sell them San Francisco sicko.
This is a perfect example of the Genius of out founding fathers invention called the Electoral College.
California is trying an end run around it by packing in representatives based on the vast numbers of illegals on the Census.
The entire map of political power will shift if the Census once again lists those who are not Americans.
We should invade Canada, put them to the sword, liquidate their assets.
I believe we should require ALL LIBs and their families to move to canada. Give them 15 minutes notice.
Oh hell, they already own it..!!
That would only pay the Interest on the National Debt for a Year.
