Here's my take: Who wants Canada, a giant socialist drain on tax dollars? The poor sods are already in a death spiral and don't even realize it because their media is so stunted. Don't look at the Federal numbers, look at the provincial numbers, where the effects of 50 years of socialist medicine have taken a heavy toll on budgets. Forty-five percent of Ontario's annual budget is consumed by medicare alone, without including their fat pensions. With costs increasing each year in the double digits, you do the exponential math. Ontario has maybe 5 years to Armageddon.
To top it off, the eastern provinces are West Virginia poor, the Quebeckers are separatist blood-racists, the far North is a write-off, British California is full of drug addicts and maryjane growers.... it would seem that Alberta/Saskatchewan are the only keepers with their beef, oil and grain.
If you want my opinion.....Bad idea, unless you take the pick of the litter.
And Canada owes the Communist Chinese exactly how many trillions of dollars ...?
