US, Canada should merge into one country
- Thread starter B00Mer
- Start date
So, if Canada & the USA where to merge in some manner, there would
be give and take on both sides. What would the USA surrender in order
make this union work?

We could surrender at least twenty million Mexicans and ship them north immediately. Or we could make French the national language. Or we could give everyone in the Prairie Provinces five votes apiece in perpetuity. Or we could abandon the Presidential System and replace it with the Parliamentary System. Or we could please every woman in Canada twice each day of the rest of her life. Or we could start drinking that crap they serve at Tim Hortons. Or we could elect Stephen Harper as President of the US. We could make the Shiny Pony the Secty. of Defense. We could move the national capital to Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. We could expel William Shatner and return him you from whence he came.
You already do. You bought the whole thing and set up locations in the US. Hell there's one in Madison Square Garden.
I am as proud as anyone else to be a Canadian but I don't consider myself any better because I'm a Canadian. I've met many Americans through travel to their country and always considered myself to be on equal footing. Sure we have differences but that doesn't make us better or worse- I think mutual respect is what we should be striving for and I don't think "effing off" will improve anything!
Pass on the Mexicans as we've got them already, from the Philipines.
The rest I can't see happening, and I wouldn't wish that Timmy Ho's
swill on anyone as it's just beyond foul.
I don't think we have a Robins in this burg. In B.C. I'm thinking Timmy has driven most of the Robins out.
That is freakin' hilarious!
Many of the bennies you refer to in the statement are an illusion.... Canuckleheads pay for all this through taxes (you knew that) however, the healthcare system is heavily constrained by the budget allocations in each province... Without getting into the minutae of details, one of the tricks here is for the 'system' to de-insure select procedures (reduce coverage) in order to make the budget fit expectations.
Restrictions on available hospital beds is another sneaky way that costs are kept down too.
It ain't a healthcare utopia up here gopher
Whoa there bud... We were thinking maybe bringing back stubbies for beer bottles and cheaper high octane gas for my ole GTO.
I don't like them, but if someone buys me one, I'll drink it to be polite.
If I end up having one two days in a row, I still think they taste like cat
pee, but crave a cup of Timmy Ho's hard on day three while still thinking
it tastes like cat pee. Can't explain it, but it's true. Not sure what's in their
coffee, but I don't think it's the coffee that has you craving their coffee...
Everyone assumes because we are good neighbors it would be a natural fit.
Nothing could be further from the truth. The view of the world is different and
the temperament of the people is different. Yes we are good neighbors yes
we hiss and spit at each other at times and yes if we were attacked either of
us all would be put aside. We spend so much time with polarized politics on
both side of the border the only relief we get is being nice to each other. I think
we best keep our boundaries and be good neighbors

Granted. The US could also start negotiating fairly on forest products. We could change Independence Day from July 4th to July 1st. We'll make Queen Elizabeth our Head of State.
many years ago In a police investigation autopsy, revealed nicotine in the dead man's system.
Since the victim was a none smoker, police where baffled. The man had drank a Timmy coffee, and so the police asked Timmy if nicotine additives where added. Timmy admitted that yes they where.
