Adding States

Apparently, CanickiPM Castreaux’s visit with god-emperor Trump at Mar-A-Lago didn’t quite go the way the little socialist shit wanted it to:

Trump reportedly told Trudeau that “Canada has failed the U.S. border by allowing large amounts of drugs and people across the border, including illegal immigrants from over 70 different countries.” The once-and-future president “became more animated when it came to the U.S. trade deficit with Canada, which he estimated to be more than $100 billion,” and told his shallow Canadian counterpart that “if Canada cannot fix the border issues and trade deficit, he will levy a 25% tariff on all Canadian goods on day one when he returns to office.”

That was when Trudeau started whining and claiming victimhood status. After all, what else would you expect a leftist to do? Trudeau knows that playing the victim is the pathway to fame, favor, and fortune on the left, and apparently, he assumed this to be a universal tendency. So he told Trump, probably with tears glistening in eyes, that he just couldn’t impose such a tariff “because it would kill the Canadian economy completely.” There is nothing in the available reports about Trudeau offering to do anything about stopping the flow of migrants and drugs over the border. He just wanted Trump to withdraw his threat for nothing, out of his concern for the well-being of Canada.

Trudeau doesn’t seem to have realized, however, the implications of the fact that Trump is not a fellow socialist internationalist. It isn’t that he doesn’t care about Canadians; it’s that as president of the United States, he will act in the best interests of Americans. It’s actually Trudeau’s job, not Trump’s, to act in the best interests of Canadians. 

And so the America-First president-elect asked Trudeau, “So your country can’t survive unless it’s ripping off the U.S. to the tune of $100 billion?”

At the end of it, Trump joked about turning Canickistan into our 51st state.

Well, now.

I know it was just a joke, but let’s run with this one for a moment.  Assume that this all happened, and suddenly the Great White Empty Space to our north became attached to the U.S.A.  There’s no way the whole of Canada would be just one state, of course;  but the provinces could easily become lots of different states.

I for one would be perfectly happy to see Alberta, Manitoba and Saskatchewan as newcomer-states to the Land Of The Free, and I suspect that the citizens thereof might be just as happy at such a union.

Ontario, Quebec, BritColumbia and Atlantic provinces… eh, not so much.  Ontario and B.C. are absolute non-starters because to be quite honest, we have enough socialist states of our own (California, Illinois, Oregon, NY etc.) without adding some more socialist senators to Congress.  (I’m not familiar enough with New Brunswick and the Newfies to know their politics, but I suspect that they’d be closer to Ontario than to Alberta, so to speak.)

And then there’s Quebec, with that ultra-Francophone fetish.  While that leads to excellent French restaurants in Montreal and Quebec City, it’s not enough to overcome their grating insistence on French as The Other Official Language, with all the bollocks and inefficiency that bilingualism entails.

To be honest, though, there’s way too much Woke in the whole of Canuckistan for us to have to deal with — gawd knows, it’s going to take long enough just to end the bullshit in our own backyard, without having to deal with Ultra-Woke Canadians as well.

Like all good colonizers, we’d want all the good stuff:  oil, gold, natgas, forests etc.  But all that good doesn’t come closer to countering all the bad.

So yeah:  while it’s an amusing joke and all, it just ain’t gonna happen.  Sorry, my Canucki Readers — who are definitely not wokistas — but there it is.
