Nothing like how it would make it easier legally or something. I just think that Canada shares close cultural, historic and monarchy ties with the UK, and has a very good relationship with them. I think already Canadians would be tapping up Brits to better understand how the EU works and how to get things done. And, if the UK really wanted to get back in, Canada would support that and try to make it happen.

Culturally, the UK is already more similar in values to the EU than Canada is. If they're willing to accept Canada as a member, there really wouldn't be a reason not to take the UK back.
