    Speaking at a press conference last week in Ottawa, May called out the president-elect, saying, "Hey, Donald, have we got a deal for you? You think we want to be the 51st state huh? But maybe California would like to be the 11th province. How about it? California? Oregon? Washington?

    I live in California and I’d like this. But then the USA would never have a non-GOP president ever again and that’s against my conscience.

      The “United States” is done anyway, there’s no way, ironically, to make America great again.

      Washington would fit right in. Western Washington is already a lot like British Columbia, and Eastern Washington is already a lot like Alberta.

              News to me, same crazy people all over. But as Canada’s punching bag, feel free to take it out on Alberta.

                I lived in Cowtown in 1979-82, before it was this bad. Kind of liked it then … not so much now.

                  I get the idea, but you have not lived here since 82. I have to travel a bit in the prairies and let me tell you a lot of Canada makes cowtown look like a progressive paradise. Is it worse now, yeah. Is it as bad as say a town in Manitoba or Saskatchewan? Nope, but we Canadians don’t like to think of our countries slide into right wing populism out side of Alberta.
