Silly, silly.

I think it's a common misperception that English Canadians and Americans are the same darn thing. What's that all aboot, eh?

No Way!

1. Not enough socalists down there. I would feel lonely.
2. They can take Quebec. We have enough problems with... oh wait.
3. They can stop stealing all the glory from our national sport down there.

4. They had their chance to repent during the American Revolution.

5. 2 words Imperial System (I can handle feet, and that's it)

[edit]

And on a more serious note -

If Canada joined the US, I would leave. Don't get me wrong, I love Americans and all, but I have too many misgivings about certain social and political aspects of US public life (nikimcbee's point #1 explains why - yes, I'm a socialist and want to be at least in a non-disdained minority). In Canada I'm at least mostly comfortable.

Canada is its own society, or perhaps its own multiple societies (I'm sure people in the West would agree that they have their own stances on things that are different from those of us in Ontario). I'd rather it stay that way - I genuinely do like Canada the way it is and I've every intention of being a good Canadian citizen as long as it does.

(point of curiosity - although I was born and mostly raised in Russia, Canada is the only country whose citizenship/passport I ever held)

A similar question has been asked concerning my country Australia and New Zealand. Could you imagine a combined All Black Wallabies side? :hmm: The northern hemisphere rugby nations would cry foul.
