Hey Californians - secede and come join us in Canada. We have healthcare and numerous trade deals with other countries/markets in place, tarriff free. We also have water, and Trump just dumped your water.

In exchange, we get to come hang out in the warm weather during the cold winter months.

You weren't even really part of Quebec back then. The Acadian peninsula is in New Brunswick.

I guess if I become a Canadian citizen, I'll learn my Canadian geography better.

Show us that you're interested; don't treat us as a fallback. Learn your geography now!

Will do! I'll also teach anyone my gumbo recipe as a token of our friendship
