Sorry California. You're still America.
But also, it's not just about boycotting the US, it's also about supporting the Canadian economy to strengthen our country, given our next door neighbor is a demented lunatic, with apparently still tens of millions of supporters.
So yeah, no.
But hey, if you want to secede and use all that sweet economic clout of yours to create Cascadia, you can have all that business back. If it means that much to you.
As an american, I say to you: Elbows Up, Canada! We're sorry about our government being assholes to you. I know many good canadian people. You guys are on the right side of history in this battle (except the weirdos in Alberta).
Sorry it isnt the government it is the people. This government didn't come out of nothing.
You are correct, friend. We have quite the struggle on our hands over here. Just my luck, I became a citizen in 2025.
um, welcome fellow citizen of Us-rael. You can vote in our elections now, congrats. Dont forget to pay your taxes, those bombs are really not cheap. I hope you got all your health care handled before you changed citizenship.
As a Canadian elbows are at a cool 30° right now, not everything is peaches and cream on the liberal side of the rainbow.
Yeah, a secession for the less-insane states sounds pretty good. Tho the red (read: non-coastal) parts could fuck on off with Idaho and Nevada.
This is totally unfair to Colorado. You can't leave us with these nutjobs.
Don't worry the California Imperium can annex you guys once we get done with the Mormons.
You'd better be true to your word. We will probably lose most of our democrat population to emigration before that happens.
Well worst case scenario it gets resettled.
Oh, wow. Genius plan. If the flatlander states aren't completely toxic and ruined, they could be resettled as soon as the Cascadian and NewColonial state groups repair their economies enough to begin allowing new membership applications and setting up proper accessible care and prevention.
... and dirtbag richbitch reparation suits. They'll pay for proper healthcare and rebuilding now with their tax money, or in a courtroom later.
Well I was figuring that most of the great planes will probably depopulate due to trade collapse. Not necessarily due to ecological issues but s second dustbowl is always possible I suppose.
Idaho racists first, they will absolutely need to be taken care of. Mormons we can probably just build a wall to keep out.
If there was some kind of secession crisis I feel like CO would be the most fucked state for sure. Surrounded on almost all sides. Although most of those states are low population so who knows what might happen...
Make your own nation. Let's trade.
We need to get the native American leaders back to sort this nonsense out and reestablish some order and civilization.
I agree! We need to find a way to join up. Maybe move enough Democrats into Nevada and Utah to form a bridge to California.
Honestly, if just enough Democrats moved into just the right amount of states, we would easily overpower the crazies and bring things back on track.
Although, you see movements like in Illinois where the vocal minority sitting on lots of land want to secede from Chicago. You know, where all the people are and where all the money comes from...
Start exterminating Nazis and we’ll talk
While you guys just walk away? Thanks a lot.
There’s vast swaths of those less-insane states that are just as insane. Flyover PA, upstate NY, eastern Oregon and Washington, southern Illinois, and central California
Yeah, it's just a list of states sorted by population of the largest city
Nope, even in blue states there are more than enough Trump supporting Republicans, that are to blame for all of this.
Right, which is why I addressed that in my comment.
Those less insane States still voted for tump like 45%.
Nope.
