I can live with that.

Not me. I like Canada just the way it is and think Trump is out there for raising the question. But we know he's out there. About the only thing I wouldn't be upset if it became American is a hockey team. But I'd want to keep them in Canada.

Every talk we've had in the past about making new states brings up the balancing act between the parties. I'd love to say Canada is too far left, but I had a friend whose Canadian unit was disbanded because it was cesspool of racism. He was half Chinese, half Slav and considered both of those as superior races. It was disheartening to see him lose partial custody of his kids due to their own testimony. He went off an a racist Filipino rant in his Philippines lawyer's office and the police took him home.

But how far we've gone to the right makes me shake my head.
