EU already said this can't work. It said in the rules only European countries can join the EU. But something can be worked out, no doubt.
~~European~~ Worldwide Union
Globalists but for real this time.
Canada becomes a France province, easy.
Or France becomes a Canadian one and switch to English as the primary official language. It would solve a ton of issues and I'm sure the French would be okay with it.
It's been ok so far in Canada.
Wait...
Where did they get all those torches and pitchforks so fast?
Membership of the European Economic Area - same as Norway - for example.
Comes with being part of the EU Internal Market, Freedom Of Movement (both ways, of course) and exceptions in a couple of areas (such as fishing rights not being decided by the EU, which I suspect is something that Canada would rather have) but without voting power within the EU.
You have to be "substantially European", which includes Cyprus, which is fully in Asia and half Turkish. Also, Greenland and to a degree Iceland aren't geographically European.
Neither Greenland nor Iceland are in the EU.
No, but French Guiana is, and it's in South America.
kind of
Ah shit, you're right about Iceland. I thought it was for some reason.
Greenland like usual has no data (because WTF is it really? Independent? A territory?). Denmark definitely is, though, and Greenlanders presently get the full benefits of that.
