This is the reason the US wants to make Canada the "51's state". They want our water, our oil, our minerals, but not our people. It was always going to be this way, but here we are...now.

Nah, I think that they'd quite like a few slaves.

We should go the other direction. Let Canada take over the Northern US; states like Michigan and Wisconsin are basically Canada already (at least parts of them).

Cue confused Midwestern progressives feeling simultaneously outraged and flattered 😁

Just take over every bordering state, and any state that would be cut off from the rest of the US due to such a move (e.g. Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island).

And every time Trump threatens Canada once again, just repeat the process - excluding DC of course.
