Im not an American but can they actually do this legally?
Legally? No. But you can’t secede legally either so there is a fuzzy line there somewhere should they start down that road.
I mean, I guess we'll find out together
Holy shit, my prediction model forecast this. 🍿 This is actually a major step toward derailing this coup.
Glad to hear, im Canadian and i have no problem buying American products from certain states.
Succession! And we’re taking Hawaii Oregon and Washington. We can trade with the EU and Canada. Maybe we can join the EU
It's too bad Utah and Nevada are between Colorado and California...
If we’re fixing America’s beshittlements, can we restore the Hawaiian monarchy?
Yeah that seems fair. Can you guys take care of zuck and Ellison? …..I’m thinking sewer slaves would be best after seizing their assets of course
Secede and then we can trade :)
If they secede you will definitely not be trading with either half for a long time.
Better than the current situation honestly. Both being preoccupied is better than Trump’s admirations of Canadian minerals
Not if you get all the nuclear fallout.
I think I’d rather be nuked than be lead by the orange man ngl
I doubt that's true
I don’t know if you understand the pettiness and absolute disdain of the idea of being American that Canadians have. I live in Ottawa so I would be in the city that gets nuked if it came to that
