I'd really like to think that the governments of states like California, Oregon, Washington, and New York would work with Canada to resist this stupid stunt and offer to instead become canadian provinces. I mean, if we're doing stupid shit about control of borders or whatever, and these states are already being attacked by Trump and giving more to the Fed than they're taking back, why not just offer our GDP to Canada in exchange for a functioning Federal government, with healthcare for our citizens too?

Hey Canada, just buy America from trump, tell him he’ll still be CEO, conclude the deal and then fire him.
Thank you.
Time for Canada to start building bunkers along the border. Deep defense. Then weapons caches around the country.

I'm more interested in becoming a Canadian province.
And I dare say, if the US did officially go to war with Canada, New England (and probably New York) would be likely to switch sides.
And they would in all likelihood bring with them all military bases and forces within their territory.
Hey Canada! I'm pretty sure you fought us over Michigan and Ohio once. Come and take us please.
Not secede but they could refuse to participate and could actively resist. The west coast and Minnesota might also. Lots of military probably have family in Canada also. Canada could sneak raiding parties into the US to knock out transmission lines, utilities, etc.

He should make Mexico a state and the border crisis will vanish just like that.
We should keep going until we reach Antarctica.
No that's why he wants to drill baby drill. To bypass all of the third world borders and get directly to Antarctica without having to deal with them.
Let him look all he wants. First hand he reaches out with, lop it off
I say do it. Because then whether it comes in as one state or 10, one per province, they'll be blue states. Because they'll all hate Trump for all of this bullshit. I'm sure the Republicans will love it. It's not like they've been fighting tooth and claw to keep Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia from becoming states because they would be blue states, or anything.
I say no, I'm not an American, and I don't want to be one
It's adorable that you think Canadians would be allowed to vote. I'm not even sure Americans will be allowed to vote much longer.
They know. Some Republicans have been talking about making Canada a state with no vote and no representation.
well it means world war 3 if the amerikkkans do it, we will fight to the last man
