Nah, just take the States. The PPCLI could take the Western States, the RCR could take the centre states, and the Royal 22nd could take la Louisiane.

Actually, the Royal 22nd could take parts of Florida too. I hear there are so many Quebecers there that they have some enclaves of their own.

No. The way I heard it, Global Warming will give Canada a perfect tropical climate but make a desert of any place south of the 49th parallel.................It may take a few years but Hawaiian Islanders will go to Alaska to get a tan....LOL

Twice this idea has been discussed with no success.

In 1974, NDP MP Max Saltsman tried to use a private member's bill to persuade the government to consider annexing the islands. He reasoned that there should be a warm-weather destination for Canadians to spend money on Canadian soil.

Unfortunately for sun-loving Snowbirds, the proposal was rejected.

In 1988, members of the Turks and Caicos government resolved to approach the Canadian government about establishing a special relationship. But alas, the idea of annexing a warm-weather island took back seat to the debate over free trade with the United States (something some Canadians consider annexation of a different variety).
