In response to suggestions by a lunatic in the US Oval Office, Green Party Canada’s leader Elizabeth May suggested Canada should invite western states Washington, Oregon and California join B.C and split from Canada to form the ‘Cascadia’ eco-state.
(Note this article is from Jan 8, 2025 and Elizabeth May has since become co-leader of the party alongside Jonathan Pedneault).
The “Cascadia” idea wouldn’t be viable IMO. It would be better for all to just add the newcomers to an enlarged Canada. (I 100% wouldn’t want B.C. to leave Canada, just to be clear, nor any Canadian territories to be ‘exchanged’ or lost).
I’d be against any absorption that brought US gun ideology to Canada… if they’re splitting from the US, they’d better be doing so for the goals of taking on the more pacifist and commensalist Canadian values.
