"....Immigrants need to add value to the country, not cost taxpayers. Vet professionals with families first. Doctors, engineers, etc. Canadian universities don't produce these anymore. Just left wing TIK TOKERS, and we already got enough of those....."
i agree 100% for both of our countries , let it be done by the incoming admins and let those that dont measure up be sent back ,

I am an admitted grammar and spelling **z*. So far I've done a pretty good job of biting my tongue but can we please stop calling the border a "boarder"?
O.K., now back to our regularly scheduled programming. When I lived in Canada I was very much in favor of Canada joining the United States but now that I'm a citizen of, and living in the U.S. I'm not so sure. Only four of the Canadian Premiers are considered conservative and the Prime Minister of Canada is an avowed Leftist and proponent of the "Great Reset". The last thing America needs is another state or states sending Leftists to our senate. Further, assuming the new American state of Canada received a proportional share of the House of Representatives, which American state(s) would lose members due to the maximum number of representatives being limited to 435? Next, and I know this is going to chap some hides but facts are facts. I lived in Canada for 46 years and the U.S. now for 24. Since I have moved to the U.S. I have experienced crime twice: once when my truck's door was 'keyed' and another time when someone stole the antenna off another truck. Here's the grand total of crime I experienced in Canada: two homes and one truck burgled, two assaults by street thugs, a hit and run, a truck totalled by a speeding 18 year old, another by a driver on his phone, a lit cigarette purposely dropped on the front seat of a classic car I owned, a Brittany Spaniel I trained for hunting stolen, I could go on and on. Yes, I know some of you are chomping at the bit to point out the higher murder rate in the U.S. but if you don't live in one of the Liberal Infestation Zones you are unlikely to ever have to worry about being murdered....certainly not worry more than if you lived in Canada. The medium sized city I live in which is 1/2 hour north of Dallas has only ever had 1 murder and that was in 2017. We average 2 robberies per year. Now for healthcare. I was amazed at the speediness of delivery of healthcare when I first moved to Texas and my doctor ordered an MRI. The very same day I was contacted by the clinic to schedule my MRI and was told to come in tomorrow. One day wait for an MRI? Unheard of in Canada! Virtually two years to the day ago I received my Prostate cancer diagnosis and the amazing healthcare system in the U.S. kicked into high gear. In very short order I had my fiducials inserted, a PET scan to ensure no metastases, and 40 rounds of proton therapy combined with 4 Lupron injections. My cost? $1,500 which I was very happy to pay for the timeliness and extensiveness of the treatment. My PSA is currently undetectable. So, in short why risk losing what we have by importing trouble from elsewhere? We are about to get the BORDER sorted out and removing the world's detritus from our country. We already have enough of our own Lefties to deal with.

In my opinion, it’s very unlikely Canada would join the US. Quebec would never join, they would loose all the advantages they have in Canada. For the reasons you pointed out, this is probably a bad idea anyway. If it were to happen, I would think the provinces that decided to join would become states, not just one big state of “Canada”.
The US is not going to annex Canada either. This is all just political posturing with the aim to reduce the flow of illegal crossings and flow of drugs across the border. |

I offer a 2nd opinion: as espoused by political sciences prof @ VMI back bout 30 yrs ago:
Alberta & B.C. would form their own country. (warm water ports, suited for the asian trading area, & filthy abundant in natural resources. Sask & Manitoba would be swallowed whole (maybe become a state - but there isn't very many people living there). Ontario, because of size & population to become a "protectorate"(Like American Samoa & Peurto Rico). Quebec - in spite of what they think - would not be able to make it on it's own & appeal to France - who wouldn't want to touch that disaster! The Maritimes is anyone's guess, but the Newfies have longed for the days when they were independant.(They see us "mainlanders" as a drag on them.) Of course, the REAL hidden flaw is the Indigenous peoples. They actually own most of Quebec, & alot of other areas..& they know how to fight! Would be something to watch.

I’ve been hearing about the breakup of Canada for more than 50 years. But I don’t think there is enough courage to go through with it. Like a bad marriage.
Only time will tell with this, strange times indeed. |

The Native People will live in Quebec could join with the Native People with of Nunavut.
Make a Native People Nation. Newfoundland could go back to being a separate Dominion. |

Clive Cussler wrote a book based on the premise "Night Probe" Canada would become part of America, back durng WW2, the treaty was signed, & ratified, creating "The United States Of Canada", but there were only 3 copies, 2 were known to have been destroyed, but the third is simply missing. "In the midst of an international crisis, Heidi
Milligan, a beautiful, brilliant American naval commander, accidentally
discovers an obscure reference to the long-buried North American Treaty,
a precedent-shattering secret pact between the United States and Great
Britain. The President believes that the treaty offers the single shot
at salvation for an energy-starved, economically devastated nation, but
the only two copies plummeted into the watery depths of the Atlantic in
twin disasters long ago. The original document must be found—and the one
American who can do the job is Dirk Pitt. But in London, a daring counterplot is being orchestrated to see that the treaty is never implemented. Brian Shaw, a master spy who has often worked hand in hand with American agents, now confronts his most challenging command. Pitt’s mission: Raise the North American Treaty. Shaw’s mission: Stop Pitt." SPOILER ALERT: Brian Shaw is a "trade name" for an aging, retired Bond, James bond.

Just got back from Val-Dor QC, I was told in conversation, the natives would take control of all Quebec territory if $hit hits the fan. They pretty much own most of it anyway. Regardless to whether JT resigns soon, he and the libtards will be gone come October 2025 and good riddance. Then there will be the fallout from massive fiscal restraints imposed by the new Gov`t to try and save the economic mess JT created and passed on. And on it it goes.

..yeah, theres going to be ALOT of fiscal restraint - for quite a while - under the Conservatives. SOMEBODY has to straighten this financial fiasco out.
Twixt the Lieberals & the NDP, all I can say is: " This is another fine mess you've got us into!"

Yes, there is something to be said for electing Conservatives. Canada and the state of Texas have similar numbers of citizens and very similar GDP's. In 2023 Texas had a budget surplus of $32.7 billion. They're predicting a least a $20 billion surplus for 2024. Governor Greg Abbott and the Texas government cut our property taxes by 40% last year. Our state is thriving as more and more corporations move their headquarters here to take advantage of relatively inexpensive energy, find highly trained (not indoctrinated) graduates of the many prestigious universities here: Baylor, U of T, SMU, TCU, UNT, Rice, Texas Tech, Texas A&M not too mention the dozens of community colleges, and a favorable business climate. Compare Texas' situation to that of similarly sized blue states or Canada and you have to wonder why does anyone vote Dem or Lib?

Ya maybe a new gov`t will cut us all a check from the liberal slush fund of over a 100 billion dollars. Its all ill gotten tax money anyway. Send it back from whence it came. That would effectively make us all millionaires. And something like that should happen just in spite of all libtards here. Apparently this secret fund is there for foreign give aways!!! Its maddening, give it to foreigners, not that most families here are struggling to make ends meet, and an alarming increase in scurvy in our youngins. Makes you kinda want to nuke parliment hill.
