They should join us in the great white North. Then Trump never has to worry about pandering to them for votes ever again!

Can Michigan join? I'd rather be Canadian at this point.

As a Canadian I'm not really supportive of any state joining us. Even the bluest states have too many Trump supporters

It's not even the existence of Trump supporters. It's the fact that even the Democrats, taken as a whole, are incredibly right wing. America is a crazily conservative nation. And even the blue states would destroy Canadian culture and identity - albeit without meaning to.

We want to be their friends but we don't want to be them.
