Title: Biden Administration Proposes Merging the United States With Mexico and Canada
Post by: ConstitutionCowboy on October 19, 2022, 10:57:49 AM
Biden Administration Proposes MERGING U.S. With Mexico and Canada (https://thenewamerican.com/biden-administration-proposes-merging-u-s-with-mexico-and-canada/?mc_cid=aad8c5b6b2&mc_eid=c5b630213f).

I don't see how this could be possible without a constiutional amendment relinquishing our soverenty. No treaty could cover the range and extent of such a "merger". Now, if Canada and Mexico wish to divi-up their provinces and states  and allow them to become new US states, we could talk.

I seriously doubt Canada would relinquish any of its sovereignty, and I doubt the drug cartels in Mexico would sit still for such an event. This liberal/progressive wet dream has little chance of becoming a reality.We were never meant to be a subject of a suzerain.

Thoughts?

So basically they want to officially recognize what they have already been doing under the table?

This wouldn't just take an amendment.  It would take a new Constitution.  Of course, many Democrats probably think it would just take an executive order.

I expect the Federal Government looks with envy at the sheer level of corruption allowed to the Mexican government, and the authoritarian policies of the Canadian government.

Most people in the world are far more accepting of crooked, statist tribal government than American citizens.  I expect this is one of the major motivations of our gov in encourage mass migration, from corrupt tribal cultures.

I'm sure I wouldn't love whatever they mean by "consolidating" the area, but I'm not sure it was intended to mean what the pundits have framed it to mean.

Same notion was floated late in the Dubya era, too, if I remember right.

Globalists of both Left and Right stripes LOVE treaties, because they carry parity with a Constitutional Amendment but only require ratification by the Senate.  They're effectively immune to legal challenge via SCOTUS.

Do we want Canadia?  (parts of it, maybe, absent whatever part voted Fidel's kid in.)

B.C. and Alberta have nice scenery.  Is there any gold left in the Yukon?

I'd like the parts of Canada that have no people living in them.  Lots of seasonal hunting and fishing land.

Can't we give them Puerto Rico and Southern California?

IMHO, we should make Puerto Rico a state. If they want.

+1. The PR is even more of a shithole than Mexico. 90% of that population has their hands out for free stuff.

I guess the those *expletive deleted*ing idiots in the Biden administration really do want to start a Civil War.

Well, you just made Mayorkas's domestic terrorist extremist list. Well done!

Alberta and Saskatchewan are actually potentially candidates for new states.  BC, Ontario, and Quebec will likely never vote to join the USA.  The Maritime provinces might.  Not sure about Manitoba, they might go with Alberta and Saskatchewan.  The rest are even more sparsely populated than Alaska, and mostly by “First Nations” which are not especially likely to want to join the USA.  Be cool to get Yukon and Northwest Territory just because that would make Alaska contiguous to the lower 48.

NO!

Not even if they would agree to laws and the Constitution being in English -- which they won't agree to anyway.

Maybe instead we could give "Bosyorkington" to Canada.  In exchange for the sane parts in the middle.
