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.

Sell New England and NYC.
I went to Vancouver a few months ago, bums everywhere.
Lowest bidder and I’m willing to carry the paper on the sale... just 5% down!
Yes, I grew up 45 mins from there, you couldn’t pay me to go back.
Give them Or and WA.
Many of you may recall this circulating a few years back, but the concept never grows sold!
Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:
We have stuck together since the late 1950’s, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let’s just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.
Here is a model separation agreement:
Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.
We don’t like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we’ll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O’Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).
We’ll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We’ll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO’s and rednecks. We’ll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood .
You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we’ll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we’ll help provide them security.
We’ll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N.. but we will no longer be paying the bill.
We’ll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.
You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors. We’ll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right. We’ll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I’m sure you’ll be happy to substitute Imagine, I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.
We’ll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we’ll keep our history, our name and our flag.
Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I’ll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.
Sincerely,
John J. Wall
Law Student and an American
P.S. Also, please take Barbara Streisand & Jane Fonda with you.
P.P.S Of course you could not forget Pelosi as leader of the gang!
The cost would have to include canadian language lessons for the Montanens. Mostly they’d just have to say “ey” at the end of every sentence.
Western Washington and western Oregon. The eastern parts of each state are conservative.
Humor challenged much?
What’s all this aboot?
So are a lot of the western parts. The Willamette Valley is the trouble in Oregon.
I wonder if Montana is worth that much.
The Yukon and Northwest territories are two of the albatrosses around Canada’s neck. We don’t need them.
Selling them California is a good idea, though. If they make California part of the Dominion, it will raise the average national temperature, making it easier to recruit immigrants.
What can we get for selling Berkeley?
Were gonna need a bigger wall. :>
I’d rather buy Alberta.....
Yup, pay them a few million to take CA off our hands!
British Columbia is full of leftists and enviro-Nazis.
Alberta has vast resources and the willingness to develop them.
lol....three of us have posted that same idea
