CANADA
Oh Canada. One of the great national anthems. Stately. Proud. Your flag is neat, too.
Having traveled to Canada a few times I have to say I am a big fan - of most of it. There are one or two places where, in my experience, the rudest people in the world live. I won't say where I was roughly handled. Just know, I'm never going back to Quebec.
But your prices! Are you kidding me? I was in the Toronto airport in 2015 and they wanted $12 for a beer!!! AND if you pay with US dollars, they won't give you any change! Before that we waited seventy-five minutes just to get our bags so we could go through customs - TWICE, and we were flying Air Canada. Nice facility, but really...? On the other hand, the high prices and baggage delays dissuade Americans from staying, so I guess your plan is working...
I have several Canadian friends who live in the States. They're nice people and they seem normal enough but sometimes I wonder. For instance, there's "Randy" who at nearly seventy-five years old STILL PLAYS ICE HOCKEY! The nursing home has asked him to shorten his career, but thankfully Obamacare will cover all future medical expenses - if the government czars allow hockey related treatment in their elder care program. If you'd like to check it out, the elder care coverage rules begin on page 125,741 of the new law.
Anyway, on to the problem of helping Canada through the transition.
I really feel sorry for you folks. When the United States falls apart, you're going to be in deep kimchi. With my proposal life isn't going to get any easier if you have to share a border with THREE versions of the USA. GEEZ, THINK ABOUT THAT ONCE... So, in order to limit the pain for most of your citizens and assure your future prosperity, here's my solution.
Canada will be dissolved and portioned out to TWO of your new neighbors. Sorry, no debate. Starting with and including Quebec, the eastern part of Canada will become part of PSA. Maritime Provinces, sorry, but them's the breaks.
The rest of Canada will become part of CSA. We'll have to build the border fence north of WOFM but I'm sure it's doable. The only fly in the ointment is Vancouver. If push comes to shove, we'll build the fence north and east of the city.
Think of it! With your oil, coal and wheat, and our oil, coal and wheat this would be a match made in heaven. Eventually a global monopoly of carbon fuels and food. We'll export energy and food to WOFM and PSA since they won't have enough green power to run agriculture AND automotive uses, and almost no farmers. At some point we'd have to export electricity to them as well, but think of what we could charge these rubes!!
