If Canada becomes the 51st U.S state would we get voting rights?

We'd have to get at least as many electoral college seats as California. We could really swing a few elections.

Canada is a sovereign nation. Trump’s rhetoric is just that…rhetoric! The man has a knack for espousing many things, some intentionally to state an objective he has. Others are to trigger people and the fact is he is a master at that.
No, Canada, a great country will remain sovereign!!
@MrBlueGuy The man plays with people’s vulnerabilities and sees their reactions.
My friend a Canadian who has written a number of books wrote a fictional novel titled “ “Canada in pieces”. Give it a read. The author is Craig Wallace.
@soar2newhighs Yeah I know Craig. Good guy.
@MrBlueGuy I’ve been a friend of his for close to 40 years!! Good man, he is!
i wonder how long it would take me to lose my accent 😂
@beermeplease Soory, I couldn't help it 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😁

@beermeplease Definitely 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

CA has a population of 50 million plus. What’s Canada’s population ?
AthrillatheHunt · 51-55, M
@NativePortlander1970 that should get them about 30 electoral
Votes in total .
@AthrillatheHunt Canada and California both have a population of around 40 million give or take...not including anyone undocumented but I don't think they have voting rights.

@MrBlueGuy a good rule of thumb is 1 EC vote per million people.

Don’t know why Canada would be a single state considering you have more land mass than the entire US 🤷‍♂
@Zaphod42 I was confused about that as well. I think we'd be more like an American territory like Guam or Puerto Rico. How does voting work for them?
Zaphod42 · 51-55, M
@MrBlueGuy I’m actually not sure. I know the territories have some voting rights as well as freedom to travel to the the states, but what they can vote for I don’t know.

Canada actually has enough financial resources through oil and rare minerals which the USA does not have, that Canada could buy the entire United States of America and pay cash for it.

Trudeau brought this to Trump's attention and offered to buy the USA out of their paralyzing $36Trillion National Debt by making the USA Canada's 11th Province ..or name the USA Canada's southern Territory to make an even 4 territories that Canada would manage. But Trump was so annoyed at Trudeau for bringing up America's near-total insolvency disaster that he wouldn't even answer him on social media! 😆

Trump is such a loser and we just laugh at his antics up here.... and to think that half of all Americans who voted, actually voted for that imbecile is too incredulous for words, but totally believable if one knows how the American mind rationalizes creative thought on a good day.

There would be war before that happened.
@GuyWithOpinions I'm actually surprised the dems haven't tried in the past, they're actually mad because they didn't think of it first.

@NativePortlander1970 i cant speak for everyone but im sure the majority does not want to be american. We have very different reputations internationally.
@GuyWithOpinions I know they don't want to become American, @beermeplease told me several months ago that Canadians would feel like You all would be losing your own unique culture.
Why would you even want to?

Better to be free from the crazy than part of it surely?
@OogieBoogie No I just mean we could swing the next presedential election for that candidate that would give us back our sovereignty.
@MrBlueGuy that is IF there is going to be one.

Remember this ?...
Rights? No. Earned rights is not rights. Rights just don't apply in the current climate! Americans hate the UN. Americans hate peace! Rights schmites!
Never ever leave a logical path out of this! You ain't going.
Dude, if the Republicans get that much power, nobody in America would have voting rights.
And you all can own firearms as a right again as well.
@helenS Maybe if teachers were armed there would be far fewer shootings, ever think of that?

@MrBlueGuy The last time I was in Toronto there was a shooting at a mall and the suspect escaped!
@fanuc2013 Haha I'm from Toronto. I was there too on my birthday so if it was the same shooting it would have been June 2nd 2012 xD
