    I love you, Canada. I want to join you one day. Please acquire California.

      38.33% of Californians voted for Trump last election. In our most right-wing province of Alberta, 21% of people hold positive views of Trump. Adding a blue state to Canada would bring in millions of far-right voters and move our country significantly right.

      Let’s remain friends. :)

        I doubt those fuckers would stay in California if we left to join you.

          Given our own right wingers would rather seperate an entire province than just join the states themselves, i doubt your rigbt wingers would just walk away from california in this hypothetical scenario

          Not a risk I’m willing to take :/
