Jordon Kosikowie said he would want Alberta to join the U.S. because more conservatives live in Alberta and Albertans are opportunistic.

    You’re free to leave any time you want, the border is right there.

      To be fair, recent events like https://lemmy.ca/post/41181182 and https://lemmy.ca/post/41102961 or https://lemmy.ca/post/41065802 or https://lemmy.ca/post/41091031 suggest it’d be harder for them to move over to the US now than it used to be. At least as Canadians.

      Most likely, the only realistic option they have for moving to the US would be to attract someone and marry<sup>HHHHHHHHHHHHH^H</sup>H

      The only realistic option for them is for Canada join the US as a single country. Which is still wildly unrealistic. But it’s all they have, sad as it is.

      That being said, if a future option opens up - say from a new treaty provides an option where they irreversibly renounce being Canadian in return for getting US citizenship - I wouldn’t necessarily say no to that.
