".... to be Canadian is to look southward toward America and say: Canada may not be perfect, but we will never be, nor will we ever want to be, anything other than what we are — Canada, the true north, strong and free."

Some U.S. states might even want to join #Canada
@EllenJS
Don't even go there please! NO!
EDIT: This is an obvious satire website.
And I don't find it at all funny! We Do NOT want to become Americanized thank you!
Thanks for the edit. It is satire, and many Americans unhappy with what’s going on in the US talk about wanting to join Canada.
@EllenJS
Yes, they do too often ask me that that's why my curt response.
I used to go into a lengthy explanation all the reasons why it is not feasible but it all boils down to we are different and do NOT want to our identity overwhelmed and diluted by a massive influx of tens of millions of unknown Americans...including MAGAs.
Individuals are more than welcome to move here, but no, not states joining.
That's a settler attitude.
And when I have people making the request or suggestion many, many times a day it's annoying because it shows a lack of thought and sensitivity, so I apologize for my short reply earlier.
And think about this if a country was threatening yours, and part of it said we want to join you...??
I don't think a lot of Americans realize just how much anxiety this talk of annexation has been causing.
Satire lands pretty flat when your country is in the crosshairs.
@Sir_Osis_of_Liver Exactly this! Thank you.
@SnowshadowII @Sir_Osis_of_Liver @EllenJS I feel you guys — living next to Russia, this is on our minds day in and day out… Stay strong and focused. And thank you #Canadians for all the good support to Eastern European countries

Slava Ukraini!
I think we still have troops deployed in Latvia.
I wish we had our post war army still.
