AND WE CAN ALL BE ONE BIG UNITED COUNTRY.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
July 21, 2013 2:47 am at 2:47 am #1106803YW Moderator-73Moderatorpro-tip: hit the “caps lock” key once
July 21, 2013 2:55 am at 2:55 am #1106804VogueMemberso that we current “stated” americans can become loyal to the british monarchy and speak real French? Not that I have anything against canadians, but no thank you.
July 21, 2013 3:06 am at 3:06 am #1106805charliehallParticipantActually the US States should become Canadian provinces. We’d get Canada’s much saner gun control laws, much better healthcare system, much lower property taxes, and government funding for Jewish schools.
July 21, 2013 3:07 am at 3:07 am #1106806akupermaParticipantA big chunk of Canadians don’t want to join a country that is intolerant of non-English speakers.
A big chunk of Canadians prefer the monarchy (which is why they founded the country to begin with – English Canada started with the refugees from the USA in the 18th century).
Candians prefer socialized medicine. They don’t favor a muscular foreign policy.
Why would the US want a country where the “conservatives” are similar to Democrats, and the Liberals are way to the left of Obama.
July 21, 2013 3:28 am at 3:28 am #1106807youngladyMemberHorrible idea
July 21, 2013 4:31 am at 4:31 am #1106808littlefishyMemberThey had that idea once before to make Canada the U.S and even Mexico into a continental country… it didn’t happen for a reason.
July 21, 2013 4:53 am at 4:53 am #1106809cant_stop_laughingMembercharliehall: government funding for schools is only in Quebec (like Montreal). And Quebec is all for seperatism anyways.
And why on earth would Canada want to become part of the U.S. anyways?
July 21, 2013 5:12 am at 5:12 am #1106810Jersey JewParticipantCharlatanHall, if you think Canada is better, you are welcome to LEAVE whenever you wish. As for me, once we get rid of you socialists, the country can ONLY get better.
July 21, 2013 5:13 am at 5:13 am #1106811UtahMemberEewww Why should Canada be a state its bad enough that they are next to us and now you want them to become part of us?? Please the door is that way —>

July 21, 2013 11:45 am at 11:45 am #1106813TheGoqParticipantI think all the countries of the world should be one huge entity that way we can put up a united front when the aliens come to destroy us.
July 21, 2013 1:38 pm at 1:38 pm #1106814popa_bar_abbaParticipantI’m voting Charlie to move to Canada. They have a shortage of doctors so I’m sure they would accept him.
It’s ok to criticize your country, but if you actually idolize other countries and want to be completely like them and part of them–why not just go?
July 21, 2013 2:52 pm at 2:52 pm #1106815proudcanadianMemberNo way! first of all, that would NOT make us all one big happy country at all! And second, it would just end up being one huge America rather than Canada AND America so united…
July 21, 2013 6:19 pm at 6:19 pm #1106816squeakParticipantWe should return to our sovereign England. The taynos that made sense in the 18th century have all been addressed. The queen can communicate with her subjects instantly, and we could have Parliamentry representation in real time via video conference or by hopping a plane. Put an end to the centuries long treason. Canada can too.

Great argument for aliyah.
July 22, 2013 7:34 am at 7:34 am #1106818ZachKessinMemberCharlie is not an MD (he has a PhD). That being said he is one of the nicest and smartest people I have the privilege of calling a friend.
July 22, 2013 2:29 pm at 2:29 pm #1106819yichusdikParticipantNewsflash: Canadians are happy with the status quo of good friends with a distinct identity. And we have no interest in your lacklustre, flavourless beer.
Utah – “bad enough they are next to us?” – Hey, OK. take all the millions of jobs you’d lose without your biggest (by far) trading partner and go jump in the (Great Salt) Lake.
Charlie – appreciate the appreciation, but where I and 2/3 of Canada’s Jews live in Ontario, there is NO public funding of our schools, and in fact the current government has reached into our pockets and stolen, 10 months after it was budgeted by the previous government, thousands of dollars in tax credits for every Jewish family sending kids to Jewish schools.
One thing you could all appreciate is the strong support of Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Canada’s Conservative government for the Jewish community, the Jewish people around the world, and the State of Israel.

It is. If Israel did not have religious issues, it would be very hard for me to justify not going.

July 22, 2013 3:51 pm at 3:51 pm #1106822PBTMemberIt seems to me that we lost our chance to make Canada a part of the U.S. during the Revolutionary War.
July 22, 2013 4:50 pm at 4:50 pm #1106823stefinMemberPBT: War of 1812.
yichusdik: It is spelled “lackluster” and “flavorless”.
July 22, 2013 4:57 pm at 4:57 pm #1106824ToiParticipantif i was american , i would be drinking MGD and coors light. *barf*.
that is sufficient argument; im sure all self-respecting canadians would agree.
July 22, 2013 5:41 pm at 5:41 pm #1106825ToiParticipantsee!! yichusdik and I were both michaven that american beer bites. we’re quiye happy, thank you.
July 22, 2013 5:44 pm at 5:44 pm #1106826yichusdikParticipantstefin – oh, and one more thing we don’t want: Inadequate American spelling.
:))
July 22, 2013 6:31 pm at 6:31 pm #1106827truthsharerMemberstefin, and the Revolutionary War. The War of 1812 was not really to liberate Canada, but to attack the UK, in 1776, it was indeed meant to liberate Canada from the UK.
July 22, 2013 7:20 pm at 7:20 pm #1106828jewishfeminist02MemberAmerican craft beers are amazing!
Popa, define “religious issues”– obviously the government has its problems just like any government, but there are lots of good neighborhoods for frum people to live in E”Y. What, specifically, makes America more appealing?
July 22, 2013 7:54 pm at 7:54 pm #1106829yichusdikParticipantSqueak, we don’t have to return, the Queen is still our Head of State.
Apparently I’ve just heard that our Head of State has a new great grandchild.
He won’t be very interested in American beer either, when he’s old enough to drink.
July 22, 2013 8:05 pm at 8:05 pm #1106830WolfishMusingsParticipantApparently I’ve just heard that our Head of State has a new great grandchild.
Yes. Her first great-grandson (and third great-grandchild overall).
The Wolf
October 26, 2015 10:05 pm at 10:05 pm #1106831JosephParticipantO’Canada!
