minus-squareNotSteve_@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up57·3 days ago DOOCY: Are you concerned that if Canada became the 51st state, it would be a very very blue state? God, every time the idea is even entertained it annoys me. Canadian politics don’t matter to US politics because we’ll never be USian
minus-squareFaceDeer@fedia.iolinkfedilinkarrow-up22·3 days agoIndeed. The question of political trends would be kind of hard to focus on through the constant headlines about bombings and assassinations.
minus-squareNotSteve_@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up22·3 days agoExactly yeah. There’s no scenario in my mind where we’d casually accept annexation and go through an American election as if everything was normal. I think most Canadians would rather go scorched earth than to capitulate.
