    Meanwhile I’m here thinking it would be nice if the whole world was made up of countries of that size with a global alliance that will fuck up any country that starts getting all imperialistic.

          We’re the second largest country
          On this planet Earth
          And if Russia keeps on shrinking
          Then soon we’ll be first
          (As long as we keep Quebec)

      Seems like that would be hard to regulate things like pollution, since there isn’t really effective treaty enforcement. Unless we give someone like the UN binding authority on global things like that and enforcement ability.
