Everyone cheering for Canada to become the 51st US state should know that the single uniting piece of Canadian culture is ānot Americanā. It might sound tongue-in-cheek but itās deeply entwined in our history. Itās hilarious/sad that Canadians are like this but itās one of the only things we all agree on. Iād bet most Canadians would take a lower standard of living than capitulate to becoming American (with the possible exception of Albertans).

I never made a claim about 51st state. Was just asking a question. :)

Iām reading a book on how American identity had influenced the countryās foreign policies and overall relationships with everyone non-American. The relationship with Canada ever since the Revolutionary war has beenā¦ interesting, to say the least Never been to Canada but can easily believe how ābeing not Americanā can unite people

I feel like, itās nonsense to have Canada become the 51st state. On the one hand it feels like a joke, on the other posts like above can begin to be spun in such a way that people will side with it. I feel like we all need to take a moment to just sit down and chill out. Canada is neat, but Iād rather it still just be Canada.
