Can we split California? Northern Cal just seems like it should be Canadian honestly.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 5 days ago (5 children)

No way man. We need all of California (where food grows anyway)! Mexico has tons of warm climate agricultural land. Canada has none!

Can Colorado belong to both? We play hockey, eat poutine, and make tacos, and speak Spanish.

There ought to be a UN controlled buffer zone, to avoid the creation of monstrosity like Poutine tacos.

Well now that you've said it, we can't just go and put that genie back in the bottle!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago

What's your problem with poutine tacos? That sounds delicious.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Aren't carne asada fries just mexican poutine anyhow?

You start adding/subtracting ingredients to the fries the further north/south you go until you get poutine or carne asada fries.

Finally, tex-mex can simply be called mexican food.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

Mexico can have Idaho.

Personally, I'd rather see the map of north America be as colourful as a map of Europe rather then less colourful than it is now.

Damnit, now I live in Canada and work in Mexico.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Same. But at least we’re close to the border.

California, Oregon, Washington and BC all need to be united under one country. Cascadia :)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 days ago

Hello from northern Cascadia.

I speak passable Spanish, and Mexican food is awesome. ¡Con mucho gusto!

Oh wait, I live in Seattle. Sounds good, eh?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Never forget, there's some good fishin' in Quebec.

I'll see you around bud. I'm going for a rip.

Mexico really would get the short end of the stick.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

How? On this map, they're getting Texas and California... two states which each individually have the GDP of a G20 country while Canada only gets one, New York. This map would make Mexico the largest economy in the world.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

Yeah, but on the other hand they get Texans, californians, and crucially, Floridans.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

And Alabama. And Mississippi.

This would be the only instance I would ever say that I'd love to live in a red state.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 5 days ago (3 children)

SC would go Mexican before we went Canadian, change my mind

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 days ago

As long as they aren't in the same country as NC.

Can we tilt it a bit, maybe let Mexico have Oregon and Idaho and let Canada have Georgia and Florida? Canadians need a place to hit the beach in the winter without needing a passport, and some Mexicans would love to move somewhere where it never got hot. Plenty of Canadian retirees already live in Florida part time.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 5 days ago (1 children)

You can't take the Florida out of Florida man.

We don't want Florida.

Economically this is a huge win for Canada, Atlanta is the business heart of the south and Florida gets the tourism money

Por qué no both eh?

Maryland is left out. I was going to ask if they're going to be the United States. But that's one state... The One State of America.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I was going to say America still has Hawaii, but the Hawaiians have been through enough.

Please make Colorado a unified zone. I need maple syrup and tacos

Authentic MexiCan™️ cousine.

Canadian bacon ranchero breakfast burrito.

Poutine nachos.

Fuck man. I'm down.

What else does Canada have? I'm already sold on the whole idea.

You know what? Fuck yeah. I, for one, look forward to our new Mexican overlords.

You’re close but the real answer is “countries are made up and we all own everything”

[–] [email protected] 17 points 5 days ago (2 children)

But the reality is "countries are made up and we own nothing"
