Can we split California? Northern Cal just seems like it should be Canadian honestly.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 hour ago (3 children)

No way man. We need all of California (where food grows anyway)! Mexico has tons of warm climate agricultural land. Canada has none!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 44 minutes ago* (last edited 44 minutes ago)

Tons of agriculture in the northern half of California. I live in Sacramento, it's like 95% people growing food. Hell, it's even called the farm to fork capital. We're a perfect fit for Canada! They can have the south.

Sorry!

Can we please have all of California? Except LA. Don’t want that!

Smith will turn Alberta warm soon!

I just want to be Canadian. Nothing wrong with Mexico but I don't speak Spanish. But I can speak Canadian! Sorry.

I thought the French peeps were all in the eastern side? I'll learn French. Just make me Canadian. Please.

I'm not Canadian yet. Where's that?

[–] corsicanguppy 2 points 47 minutes ago

Now watch Shoresy and translate some of that. It's not High French, let's say!

Can Colorado belong to both? We play hockey, eat poutine, and make tacos, and speak Spanish.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 39 minutes ago

I'm down with Colorado. Just not that one half... You know the one...

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 hours ago (2 children)

Can we tilt it a bit, maybe let Mexico have Oregon and Idaho and let Canada have Georgia and Florida? Canadians need a place to hit the beach in the winter without needing a passport, and some Mexicans would love to move somewhere where it never got hot. Plenty of Canadian retirees already live in Florida part time.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago

Economically this is a huge win for Canada, Atlanta is the business heart of the south and Florida gets the tourism money

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

There are already so many snowbirds in Florida that its almost another canadian province.

[–] corsicanguppy 3 points 46 minutes ago

Welllll we would debate the 'canadianness' of people visiting Florida. They're probably Albertans. :-p

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 minutes ago

Yo, real talk,

Don't take Missouri. Trust me on that one.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

Hey yo why the fuck am I still in the same country as the carolinas get that shit out of here

[–] [email protected] 3 points 51 minutes ago (1 children)

There ought to be a UN controlled buffer zone, to avoid the creation of monstrosity like Poutine tacos.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 29 minutes ago

Well now that you've said it, we can't just go and put that genie back in the bottle!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 38 minutes ago (1 children)

Please make Colorado a unified zone. I need maple syrup and tacos

[–] Hozerkiller 1 points 21 minutes ago

That's what free trade is for.

I feel like Canada should only be getting 1-2 states south but not 3, along with the northern part of California.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

Then again, their current providence are pretty large in comparison to the states....

[–] [email protected] 1 points 32 minutes ago

God, please let this happen

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

It's pretty cold in Colorado already, can we join Canada too?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 39 minutes ago

We’re really both. Can we just be shared? I’ll get a dual citizenship.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 hours ago

If my state becomes part of Canada, I'd be cool with that!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

As an Ohioan, I am not upset about this.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 hours ago (3 children)

SC would go Mexican before we went Canadian, change my mind

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 hours ago

As long as they aren't in the same country as NC.

[–] Hozerkiller 3 points 3 hours ago

As long as its one or the other I'm happy.

[–] tabularasa 1 points 26 minutes ago

Nope. Agreed.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 hours ago

You know what? Fuck yeah. I, for one, look forward to our new Mexican overlords.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 hours ago

God yes please

You’re close but the real answer is “countries are made up and we all own everything”

[–] ininewcrow 14 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

But the reality is "countries are made up and we own nothing"

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

Countries are like religions except their believers are WAY more likely to employ violence

[–] corsicanguppy 1 points 44 minutes ago

Crusades and 1300s Pirates checking in yet?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago

Grant's Pass is the new San Diego? Love it

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 hours ago

I agree with the mehmes’ vibes, but I wish people would remember all those lines are invisible and made up. It’s just 1 species.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 hours ago (2 children)

I wonder who California would chose, I would have thought Canada but I’m not sure anymore

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 hours ago

It would be a toss up since San Francisco is full of tech bros like Seattle and Portland, and the movie business does a lot of filming in Vancouver BC.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 hours ago

I would imagine they would choose Mexico to honor their heritage. IIRC California (like Texas) used to be part of Mexico to begin with.

[–] SplashJackson 2 points 27 minutes ago

How about all of it just Canada?
