i dont want that tbh. i am very proud of this country. it was a million times better than the us in terms of safety and respect. we had all of the opportunity of the US and none of their problems (i concede that the opportunity may not have been on the same scale as the US but anyone was able to work hard and see the reward of their work).

being Canadian used to mean something to the world and we were left alone.

Another side to that, we've already been annexed by terrorists/foreign groups - khalistanis, hamas - which are all likely funded by china anyways, are all dominant in the political sphere. every fucking day there is some sikh terrorist in our parliament screaming about india. i would join with the US if it meant deportation of all of these goons as well.

but seriously, white people need to be way more selective of who they allow into their backyard. the pursuit of corporate profits and political power has pushed countries to take people and cultures that are just not capable of living together.

I cant even begin to fully describe how misrable my US counterparts are. Canada is somewhere between Nordic EU countries and USA culture. Moving closer to USA culture is only moving closer to total misery from my experience.

I am speaking from a worklife balance perspective.

We've never, ever, ever had all the opportunity of the US. Brain drain from Canada -> US has been commonplace since.. forever? 100 years? since Confederation?

Our doctors leave to the US, our engineers leave to the US. Because they make far, far, far more money. We're left with the scraps, *after* subsidizing their education. Great deal, right?

There is absolutely nothing special about Canada other than some irrational pride for something that may have once existed, but no longer does.

The best things about Canada are our geography, which does not change with annexation. With annexation we reap all the benefits with none of the downsides. Our healthcare system is broken, people like me pay thousands and thousands of dollars to subsidize people who have no respect for their own body & health, nor any respect for the people propping them up.

We have been known for being Americans+. We *were* the elite troops in warfare (in a supporting role to the USA). Not anymore, there's nothing left. We're a tyrannical police state where the government freezes your bank account if you participate in an anti-government peaceful protest. We have a militarized corrupt national police force which points MP5 submachine guns are grandmas & their grandchildren. They'll send multiple ERT teams with perched snipers to your protest site. There is *no* excusing this, our government has no legitimacy. We *need* to be liberated because we can't do it ourselves because of said militarized national police force that crushes dissent with overwhelming firepower.

Like you said, our country doesn't exist anymore. We *need* outside liberation.

@ bolded that would be the plan. All the government has to do is start sanctioning militias and we will do it ourselves.

I work in banking, and sometimes we have relationships that are covered by our Canadian bankers. Because of the monopoly of the big 6, in Canada, finance jobs pay absolutely shit compared to US. I mean you only have so many places to go work if you don't like it right? I would wager it's the same with a lot of other industries. The huge benefit for Canadians would be access to probably one of the largest markets in the world, especially for professional jobs. It would make Canadian properties more affordable (i guess a good and a bad because people would be losing appreciated equity). I live spitting distance from southern Ontario and it's absolute kek to see sheds listed for 400k price tags.

In the grand scheme of things, i think it would be a net positive for most Canadians.

I agree that the historical & present state of Canada is in-between Northern EU culture and USA culture, which is in-line with the founding of North America.

USA is known for its heavy Protestant work ethic culture, which is the principal cause for why the US is so prosperous. A culture of good work ethic isn't exactly a bad thing - they get paid more for their contributions. They have the option of working less, but will make less money as a trade-off. In Canada, we don't have that option. We simply make less money period, without the option of working harder/more to make more money. In the US, you have the option to work very hard for some years to then work very little or not at all and live off of your great earnings. Here in Canada, we live paycheck to paycheck unto death.

In Canada, there's no longer a frontier to develop. The centralized dictatorship in Ottawa forbids anyone from harvesting resources & building communities, under the pain of being visited by an ERT. We *could* develop more and harvest more resources - if Trump was our sovereign, we would "drill baby drill".

North America has the option of becoming more Nordic. Steps to achieve that would be 1) having state Protestantism enshrined into law with a state church, and 2) being a white-Nordic ethnostate. The 2nd option is not popular nor would it work in America, which is partially so prosperous because of the contributions of the best and the best all across the world, with a very diverse population. Option 1) is a very easy first step to achieving a better life satisfaction.

so we agree on pretty much the same thing except the opportunity part. i agree - the pay and the earnings are definitely at a much smaller scale than the US and I may be speaking from bias based on my own situation where my parents owned a business and did reasonably well. I work full time and run a business and am doing worse in comparison vs them at the same age (they had 4 kids, detached house, 2 cars, and we went on atleast 3-4 vacations each year - all of us together vs me and my wife living in a big townhouse, no kids, just got a 2nd vehicle, and go on 1-2 vacations per year if we are lucky).

i do hold a piece of national pride but that national pride is eroding ith the sheer amount of ungrateful and unassimilating immigrants and refugees in our country. maybe being annexed by america is not a bad idea after all lol

I do think we're largely on the same page - with respect to myself, I have higher education (MSc in Chemistry from U of T, the #1 school in the country) and "did everything right" all on my own without parental assistance - my salary, which is largely capped (with senior chemist role), cannot afford a mortgage.. for anything, even a 2 bedroom condo which isn't big enough for my goals. I require a substantial downpayment assistance from my parents. Without that, I would need to work and be extremely frugal for about 10 years. This isn't the Canada that my parents grew up in. My parents supported us from a single salary which was relatively low, but still own a nice house with lots of money in the bank. In Canada, we have been diminished to relying on inheritance money or family assistance, it's simply not even possible for someone to do it on their own now without having a somewhat wealthy family, not so different from the feudalism of old.

Being annexed means we have a common Anglo-American labour market, which is in everyone's best interest. People just need the right information and perspective

i fully agree with you. i am come from a mixed ethnic background but fully understand and will defend the position until i die. when immigrants of colour say they built canada or built the usa -i tell them, no, you may have contributed to some prosperity, but in reality, you utilized the infrastructure largely imposed by ethnic whites to generate wealth for your own family.

there are exceptions to the rule, but, its not enough to move the needle to say they built the country.

another telling thing is that you never see ethnic whites flocking to go to countries where we are mass importing people from.
