That's the biggest problem. You need either Canada's consent (which he can't get) or to win a war with Canada plus the rest of NATO.
The second problem: it would make way more sense to become 10 or 13 US states. With respect to both area and population. That would be a big disadvantage to his party in congress.
You're dreaming if you think NATO minus the US would fight the US if the US invaded Canada. There would be some excuse made, or some technicality found.
As for becoming states, what's much more likely is that the US would make Canada a territory like American Samoa: no electoral college votes, no senators, no congressional representatives, not even US citizenship.
This is why it’s very evident that it’s a distraction from the grift.
Can you elaborate? I assume you mean there’s a grift at play. What is it?
The US government coup in broad daylight. Plus whatever the fuck else he's doing that's not making it into the news cycle because of other shit taking up the time.
Everything
Typo. Meant to say distraction. Fixed it.
Would it though?
Most of the western provinces are very conservative. They'll just gerrymander everything to give the more liberal sections one or two states and then another 12 states worth of senators and reps that are purely Nazi.
Also, hes a dictator so the way people vote is irrelevant.
Hellberta and Saskabush are it for right wingnuts. Manitoba went NDP last election and BC is also NDP (in name anyway).
