No doubt. And while we're taking things super-seriously here lets not forget to overlook the differences the world #1 economy might deal with differently than the #10, much less the problems associated with having 327 million people as opposed to a largely homogeneous 31 million.
You stay you, and we can talk 51st state down the road if it ever comes to that.
Kenny, you present an interesting offer. Hawai'i might have problems with the deal, but they've submitted to new leaders before. I hear maple syrup is worth more than melted gold by the ounce so we may be on to something.
The Quebeqois women could be just icing on the cake.I still call it The Jake.

we don't seem to agree in spite of also having mcdoanalds, we have different systems of government so maybe we shouldn't become part of america then but what a ludicrous statement that was

free lunch is over
“If we take this on as a U.S.-only responsibility, nations that benefit from that movement of oil through the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf are bearing little or no responsibility for the actual economic benefit that they gain,” he said.
The bulk of Persian Gulf oil goes to several countries in Asia, he said. “And none of those countries have actually shown any real predilection to press the Iranians to stop what they are doing.”

Yes, the stink bug was traced back to a shipping container that came from China and was opened in Penciltucky.
The first year or two they decimated my garden. I had to pull up all plants and burn them to kill the eggs they laid. It of course did little good as they proliferated beyond control. The state of MD had a program to develop a pesticide. The only thing I know that eats them is a chicken or a spider.
They have not been so bad last few years but still around.watch out for snakes

I love Canada and hate the thought, but are you really talking about being competitive in an “actual war” with the United States?
Zomg man. No.
1 series of craigslist ads could destroy that country:
Free AR-15 and ammo and $10,000 for every confirmed kill.
Think there are any psychos in the USA who want a free machine gun and a pile of money? Forget Texas and Florida, we could even just put that ad in Michigan and Ohio and you’d still be rat fucked.
I mean, the same reason your country is so much better than ours (fewer desperate angry psychos with nothing to lose) is why you’d be in rough shape trying to fight us.

no talking about tariffs & trade wars so beef/timber/steel/aluminium
most recently the orange baboon declares Canada a security risk and puts a tarif on steel and aluminium from canada never mind when (not if) the USA goes to war to kill brown people the USA don't actualy make enough aluminium on their own .
in any case we aren't about to hook up the idea was ludicrous altho it appears some people would rather join CanadaLee Lau - xxx-er is the laziest Asian canuck I know

Attention all Canadians:
Any beef (or timber, steel, aluminum) you have with the US belongs in the "Goddamn USA" thread. This one is about China, goddamn it."timberridge is terminally vapid" -- a fortune cookie in Yueyang

Meanwhile back in China...this just in...
https://chinatribunal.com/
"Despite Chinese assertions that it ceased the practice of removing body parts from executed prisoners years ago, the China Tribunal – led by prominent lawyers, human rights experts, and a transplant surgeon – unanimously determined that widespread organ harvesting from prisoners and dissidents remains an ongoing horror inside China.
"The conclusion shows that very many people have died indescribably hideous deaths for no reason, that more may suffer in similar ways," Sir Geoffrey Nice QC said on Monday while delivering the panel's final judgement.
"There is no evidence of the practice having been stopped and the tribunal is satisfied that it is continuing."
After months of considering witness testimony and a giant trove of documentary evidence, the tribunal said it was clear that the official line on transplants in China simply didn't add up.
Extraordinarily short waiting times (sometimes only weeks or less) for transplant procedures are common in China, suggestive of a rich surplus of compatible organs – but where do the endless body parts come from?
Enver Tohti, a former Chinese surgeon who gave evidence at the hearings, told how he was ordered to "cut deep and work fast" as a young surgeon working at an execution site in northwest China.
While extracting the liver and kidneys from an executed victim who had been shot in the head and dumped by the side of a road, Tohti made a horrifying discovery.
"I started cutting down the middle and then he started struggling and I knew then that he was still alive, but he was too weak to resist me, " Tohti told The Telegraph.
Accounts like these – and reports that Chinese doctors readily admit to undercover investigators that body parts in the hospital system are illegally sourced from members of the persecuted spiritual group, Falun Gong – convinced the panel there was "direct and indirect evidence of forced organ harvesting".""timberridge is terminally vapid" -- a fortune cookie in Yueyang
