DOOCY: Are you concerned that if Canada became the 51st state, it would be a very very blue state?

God, every time the idea is even entertained it annoys me. Canadian politics don't matter to US politics because we'll never be USian

Indeed. The question of political trends would be kind of hard to focus on through the constant headlines about bombings and assassinations.

Exactly yeah. There’s no scenario in my mind where we’d casually accept annexation and go through an American election as if everything was normal. I think most Canadians would rather go scorched earth than to capitulate.

My preference would be to scorch their earth, though, not Canadian.
