I'm not in favor of this.
We don't need more super-national institution telling us what to do. I'm on board for good relations and for taking ideas from them, but we need to stop giving power to distant institutions that aren't truly invested in our success.
So. Just cooperation at the provincial level, which we're excelling at? People cooperate, neighbourhoods, zones, towns, districts, regions, provinces and then no! Stop there! Is that the arbitrary line you've drawn?
I don't know man, the north Atlantic ocean isn't that arbitrary. I'm just saying that our population has been burned out worrying about super high level stuff that doesn't impact them as much as neighborhood activism.
I'm not accusing you of being a trumpist, but Trump literally called the US-Canada border an arbitrary line, so maybe try a different talking point for this topic?
Why the EU? Let's get back to our real roots and join the African Union.
Cuter girls and better food! I'm in!
Yes
Joining the EU would be a massive undertaking that would have pretty big ramifications for our economy. I imagine a lot of companies would flee to the US to avoid all the rules that come with the EU, and that would decimate our economy sadly.
While I think it would be good in the long term, we'll have to see what happens with the Orange Fuckhead. If the US descends into a full fascist dictatorship (which let's be honest, it's well on its way) then it would be prudent to start the process. If Orange Fuckhead or his cronies don't get a third term, maybe our relationship can be healed with the US and we can return to normalcy. Hard to say.
