Did you think Upper Michigan should be classified as it's own state?

give it back to the Indians

I have been to and camped, fished, and hunted in the Upper and lower Michigan, and I understand the UP-ers desire to separate!

For one thing, it's not too small to be a State. After-all Delaware, Rhode Island, and Connecticut are much smaller States. When I lived in Michigan back in 1992, they were talking about it then with Marquette being the proposed Capital. Michigan is just like many other States. Where Tax dollars are generally spent in the larger cities and the rest of the State must fend for themselves.

Why do they want to separate?

Hold on... Isn't it a state already 🤣🤣

No.

If the UP did become a new state, Michigan would just be a weird mitten-shaped state.

I’m from Michigan and the UP is too small

Sell it to Canada make a few bucks!

I think the population is probably too small but I definitely get how there is a distinct cultural difference in the UP.

I often wondered why is just wasn’t part of Wisconsin

Why not, it's obviously big enough to be one

No, because it would be called Mich again.

I used to live there and yes I think they should be aloud their independence.
