“Only 9 per cent of Canadians believe it is likely that Canada will become the 51st U.S. state. By contrast, 20 per cent of Americans would like their state to join Canada and become a Canadian province, a proportion that is higher among respondents aged 18 to 34 (30 per cent),” reads the new Léger report.
No, it would not. California’s GDP is highly dependent on it being part of the USA. CA agriculture would get devastated when the US refuses access to water from the Colorado river as we just did this to Mexico this week. CA tech companies would flee California as the US government will tie access to DoD money to being an American company so the tech sector will flee as well. The third largest industry last I checked was education which gets a TON of US federal dollars.
California without the USA would rapidly look more like Slovenia than France economically speaking.
There aren’t many if any states that would be better off apart from the USA.
Colorado is blue so it's coming along!
Which means nothing as the Feds control that water
Not if the whole coast is owned by Canada! The Pacific will be theirs!
Go look for the source if that river. Then look at how critical it is to the USA. Then compare the arsenals of the two nations. Canada will never control the Colorado river.
Colorado? One of the bluest states in the USA?
