    What? No it wouldn’t!

    I mean yes it would in application. But the human species has been invading and changing governments in other countries since the dawn of time.

    It’s possible. I assure you.

    And I also wouldn’t be upset if it happened. As an American.

          Then why are you advocating for Canada to be merged into the US? Do you have it backwards?

      As an American, I’d be upset if it happened. It’s bonkers to just be like, “oh other sovereign nation NBD you no longer exist,” absolute madness.

      Besides we could just (re)negotiate the trade agreements we have in place which apparently are so bad. I wonder who did a bad job with them last time we changed the framework and name of NAFTA … Oh right the Trump admin.

      There’s no good reason, in my point of view, we couldn’t have an equivalent to the EU for North and South America - freedom of movement, establishing standards, less friction when it comes to trade - but that would require some true visionaries with a lot of influence and power to work. I doubt it would come to be but I wouldn’t be upset if it happened.

      Won’t someone please rid us of the meddling orange man and his sad lonely billionaire buddy.
