Sticking with the conservative friend is always a waste of time unless you’re planning on becoming conservative too.
As a USian, trust me, you don’t want to become one, brain worms are bad!
Man I’m not gloating until 2035 at the earliest.
We might implode in the same embarrassing way in the elections after Carney wins because I see it the same as the USA with the same indoctrination and media empires. If cons win, that’s it now. I don’t think they’re gonna deescalate any time soon and change their ways.
Tell me again why we don’t own Alaska 🤦♂️
Imperial Russia was actual chill with the US. But was not so friendly with the British empire.
It knew it couldn’t keep Alaska so may as well sell it to the Yankees before the British take it by force.
Lichtenstein also offered to buy it but that deal didn’t go through.
I dunno. Sometimes I get the feeling they’d secede and join us if we asked. Hawaii too, if PR or Samoa came first.
I mean, Alaska had a Basic Income scheme. It’s surprisingly progressive given our own impression of our own snowy North.
Many natives of Hawaii consider their kingdom to be illegally occupied by the USA, and I don’t suppose they would be especially happy about trading the USA for a new colonialist occupier. The Kingdom of Hawaii was a marvel of the world and deserves to exist again.
hat tip to Silver Spook
Hell’s no to any kingdom
When the great and powerful democracy of the United States of God or whatever the fuck your despot wants the world to call it this week cannot even match the quality of life previously provided by a small tribal kingdom, Americans forfeit the right to an opinion on the matter.
There are good kingdoms in the world.
See the Kingdom of Bhutan.
I would take Hawaii over Alaska. We got snow ourselves.
I think Canada’s gun control laws would be one of the biggest factors preventing Alaska joining. Many people depend on their guns there for hunting, defense against wildlife for themselves or their animals, and for self defense. Many people live remotely where police response times may not be fast enough to respond to a violent situation.
As though Canada doesn’t have anything as remote as Alaska… People living in Labrador or Churchill have exactly the same needs.
And many of those people hate Canada’s gun laws. The guy i work with from kapuskasing would gladly have Canada become the 51st state if it meant he could have more guns.
So? It demonstrates that, contrary to your assertion that people depend on American gun laws, it is perfectly possible to exist in these situations with Canada’s gun laws. I get that people have an emotional dependency on guns, but that’s not an actual necessity.
All I claimed was that alaskans would have a hard time giving up their guns to join Canada. I never claimed it was impossible to live rurally without a gun.
Tell that to Dan Sullivan.
Can you give us a couple months to get there first so we can join you guys?
Because the crown was stupid or something like that
Russia didn’t hate the US more than Britain yet?

Yeah just cut them out.
I used to be friends with the guy next door. Now I have a gun in hand, and if he comes over, I’ll have to shoot him.
Time for new friends.
You sound american, because that is illegal in Canada.
I think the poster is trying to paint the picture of America being the neighbor and “coming over” as an invasion.
Still illegal, until this hypothetical invasion happens. Which I don’t see happening. What I do see is that the orange guy is causing a recession.
Wanting to defend myself from a potential invader is American? Lol. That desire to fight for what one loves is literally why your bloodline exists. Be grateful for it.
You can callously disregard this threat to our sovereignty, but I’ll never be so naive again.
I am assuming you are a white guy in their 40-60’s. How close am I?
more like the brother that has been influencing your other brother and dad and truth be told is messing a bit with your head.
At least seeing their friend take that turn made them start to rethink the whole plan of putting Tories in government. Minus Ford I guess.
