The West Coast is well aware. I really can't see anyone in the US not being aware of our country's wannabe fascist status, even though some will plead ignorance. I'm kind of hoping maybe Oregon, Washington and California will get together and ask Canada if we can join them... with a probationary period of course. No one in their right mind can trust us outright at this point.

Maybe if us west coasters make life a living hell for Shitler, he'll sell us to Canada. Just tell him it's a good business deal. He's so dumb he might just do it.

Please, Canada! WA and OR would make a lovely drive on your way to CA! We know they're the big prize but take us too! ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Shitler would never let CA go.

CA is the forth largest economy in the world. It would humiliate him to let CA leave the union.

Those three states would more than double the population of Canada and overwhelm their political system. I wouldn't do that if I were them.

While CO put Lauren Boebert on the world stage, we are generally down to ignore federal authority. Rember when marijuana was illegal? Unfortunately that would require getting Montana, Idaho and/or Nevada on board. Seems unlikely.
