55. Canada should agree to join the USA

Tue Feb 11, 2025, 02:58 PM

Feb 11

at least for a trial "marriage" for 4 years.

BUT, one condition. Each province in Canada becomes a USA state, with full rights and privileges.

There are 10 provinces in Canada.

They would very likely ALL vote for Democratic Senators and Congress persons. Alberta might go rogue. Or not.

That gives Democrats control of the House... and the Speakership

And leadership in the Senate.

Unfortunately we would still need repuke votes in the Senate to convict and remove Trump ( and Vance ) from the Presidency... but with the courts I suspect we could put an end to what's happening in the executive branch. Who knows, we might even get 81 Senate votes ( out of 120 ) to convict and remove ( and then try and convict in criminal court ).

Then, after we hold the next Presidential election... we can put Trump and Trumpism back into whatever dark hole in the ground it emerged from. Canada goes back to being Canada again... but only after we give DC statehood... and maybe Puerto Rico too.
