OTTAWA – With the stock market plunged into chaos by U.S. President Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs, Canadians have decided to simply wait out America’s forthcoming economic collapse and then buy the nation on the cheap.

    I think we would be better off calling it the 4th territory, not the 11th province myself.

    Actually no, make Alaska the 4th territory, and the rest of the US the 5th, just to rub salt in the wounds.

        Oh for sure, its such a bad joke it doesn’t even swing back to being funny.

        At the rate he’s tanking things over there though, Canada might be able to buy a fair amount of territory once the guillotines come out though.

    Yes please! American here, and I’d just LOVE to be part of Canada!

    But hey…maybe we don’t include the states that once had legalized slavery.

    Also Florida. Let’s leave Florida out of this.

    The dick-shooting has been real. Canada massively depends on the US, and US tariffs against Canada are devastating, but look at the CAD vs USD graph. Yes, Canada is taking damage, but the US is doing so much damage to itself that the Canadian dollar keeps climbing.

    You guys mean Norte Norte Califrifornia? The northern most part of Mexico? Purchased for a Big Mac and a Mc Flurry…after all Mexicans were deported to Mexico, president Trump and owner Felon sold the country for just one more taste…fucking heck!!! The president yelled at the great owner Felon…they forgot my ketchup!

    Si señor, that’ll be a Guam for ketchup.
