    Canada: Ranks #5 in the world for quality of life.

    USA: Ranks #22 and going down.

    Trump : “NOT FAIR, I WANT CANADA DOWN THERE WITH US!”

    Elbows up.

      What’s the ranking system you’re referencing? Curious how the US is even that high up. I feel like the existence of “medical bankruptcy” alone should put us below most nations. Except for all the ones we invade or fuck over with sanctions/embargos.

        I just picked whatever article showed up in a quick web search. It seems to vary depending on what the criteria is.

          Yeah. There are so many awful ones. Like ones that favor “economic freedom” heavily. Which basically just boils down to the freedom of employers to exploit their employees.

          “Not Sure” is not the same as don’t care. A lot of users on YouGov don’t care about the quesioneer though, which is another thing. They would just answer “Not Sure” to all questions to quickly get their bonus points.

      I’m an American and I’m flabbergasted at seeing this. I wonder if those republicans can even find Greenland on a map. Or even Canada.

      Do I live in some weird bubble (SF bay area) and everyone else outside of my county is batshit insane?

      43% in favour or unsure of a hostile takeover of your long time ally and trading partner???

      I dont’t think “few americans in favor” is the correct headline here.

      “Nearly 1 in 5 americans support an unprovoked war against an ally” sounds more accurate

        That’s not the question asked and I really wish it had been. “Canada becoming americas 51st state” could easily be a peaceful, friendly transition (especially because a lot of people have been brainwashed into thinking the US is objectively the best country, so who wouldn’t want to join it?).

        At least “annexing” implies force. I want to know how many Americans want to use force against our closest allies.

    Canada is like that one player in Catan that wants to make sure everyone has what they need and is having a fun time.

    USA is like that one player that hoards all of the brick and sells it to you at a 3 for 1.

        I think they specifically meant that you guys haven’t burnt down The White House in a little over 200 years. Seems it’s overdue. Elbows up indeed. The majority of us Americans back our Canadian friends and neighbors.

        Which is sad that someone keeps trying them poorly. Almost seems like provocation.

        Like come on, its Canada. They have laws (The Apology Act 2009) about the word sorry cause they say it naturally!

      Trumps rhetoric, if coming from the head of a different country, would be used to justify a drone strike. And it wouldn’t even be one people would use as an example of why dronestrikes are bad.
