Canada and our Eleventh Province

We would like to invite various states such as Vermont, Maine, and Massachusetts in the east or Washington, Oregon, and California in the west to join Canada and become our 11th+ province.

To our American cousins, sorry to have to say this, but the benefits of joining Canada include:
-Life expectancy will go up from a world ranking of 48th (USA) to 20th (Canada).
-Education will get better from 31st (USA) to 19th (Canada).
-Math scores will improve from 34th (USA) to 9th (Canada).
-Robberies will go down from 98 per 100,000 population to 62.
-Traffic accident deaths will drop from 12.7 per 100,000 to 5.3.
-You will spend half as much on health care yet get better outcomes.
-Poverty in Canada is 1/3 the rate in the USA.
-Although Canada has fewer millionaires, we more fairly distribute wealth (better income equality).
-The minimum wage in Canada is double that in USA.
- We don’t have millions of people running an around with hand guns.

and most important you will be happier (Canada ranked 15th, USA 23rd in happiness).

(We couldn't find a politeness index, but thank you for reading)

i'm not so sure about better outcomes when most canadians don't even have a family doctor or even hospitals to go to in rural parts...

thus soon to affect this stat.....

-Life expectancy will go up from a world ranking of 48th (USA) to 20th (Canada).

If you can bypass Vancouver, but mostly keep North Vancouver and anywhere cool they may be filming, especially now that more filming locations will not even be able to do external shots in the LA region.

And I'd also like a much larger border crossing between Lynden and Aldergrove, or a minimum a total redo of the Lynden/Abbotsford crossing, so I can totally bypass Vancouver.

I'm so tempted to look up these stats for Massachusetts to see if we'd really see an improvement since we are already well above the US average in most things.

@KiwiBird PSA: Never tell @sarabee1995 that she can't use stats. Now look what you did!

@Burnley123 Statistics are among the most effective form of disinformation!! 🤣

@sarabee1995 They are good, but only if used correctly. 68.7% of the time, they are not.

Although Canada has fewer millionaires, we more fairly distribute wealth (better income equality).

You blew it by including that one. The US is all about making it big, or so it seems. What looks like a better distribution of wealth to you and me sounds like a disincentive to working hard to Americans.

That's a great idea.

The politeness factor is apparently exceptional, and we'll take your polite invitation into consideration. 😌

While we're at it Mexico should reclaim Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and soCal. We'll take the north.

Should New Zealand invade Australia, or Australia invade New Zealand?

PS, you are legally obliged to give any answer you give me to all your Aussie friends.

We'll take Oregon or Montana, possibly Wyoming. Forget California, we have enough nuts, fruits and flakes!
Jackaloftheazuresand · 26-30, M
Please take New York and Illinois too

@luckranger71

Nothing's stopping you from going there...
Sounds like a far better deal for our American cousins.

NJ wants in on the deal!!!
Stop ruining our image. You are hereby ordered to move to the states effective immediately. If you are not gone within 24 hours, you will be deported.
They'd implode
