What are the odds?

Post by PatientWolf » Tue Oct 28, 2025 8:12 pm

Without making this political (please DON’T), I am just curious what people think the odds are of one or more Provinces voting to become part of the United States.

I would welcome them, but have no idea if it is even a realistic possibility.

What are your thoughts?

Zero. Zero chance it will happen. Zero thoughts about it one way or another. Love Zero bullets, though.

My only thoughts about anything north of the border are that I'd sorta like to see the Blue Jays dethrone the Dodgers.

Not going to happen. Each side would want a specific type of state added that align with the power in the Senate.

So it will not happen.

It’s a shame. I hadn’t thought about what it would do to the balance here. I was more thinking of the people above the border gaining back freedoms.

I think they should leave things as they are and just be good neighbors to each other.

Well, anything is possible. But, it is probably best to leave things as they are. In a few years, things could change again. And, some may not like the results.
