    I dunno it just feels like if Canada invaded Idaho and proclaimed it as independent and the people who lived there wanted to be Canadian... like wtf? Yeah, just let that happen.

    I love that concept, tho...

        You'd think, but you have to remember, even disregarding material (eg. settler-colonialism and resource extraction) and superstructural (eg. shared western identity) basis,

        The nation is sandwiched in alliance with Britain, and lives near fucking the U.S.A...

        If Canada were to become the new revolutionary North American 'Grenada', both nations would try to soft-coup, if not blaze to the ground the nation

        If they can get Australia's Gough Whitlam from a far, who's to say they can't get Canada in the arse?
