6. +1

2. Don't forget us in New Mexico!

We don’t contribute much to the GDP but we’re solidly blue.

8. I've seen that before and

objected to leaving NM in Jesusland!

[Marie Marie]

9. You are more than welcome to join us in Heathenville, Canada.

Come on over!

[Disaffected]

3. Interesting but

Quebec would never go for it unless French remained an "official language" and, I doubt even then they would go for it as their national influence/power would be much diminished.

[Lock him up.]

12. They would probably opt out to create...

La République Québécoise

[First Speaker]

4. Do we become subjects of the Queen again?

...an interesting historical irony. Both Georges--Washington and the Third--would have a good laugh...

[Lock him up.]

14. Canadians are not really subjects of the Queen since...

officially 1982 when Liberal PM P.E.Trudeau (PM Justin Trudeau's father) went to London to take the Constitution back to Canada.

Her face is printed on the 20-dollar bills and there are Lieutenant-Governors representing her in Ottawa and in each province (they mostly do nothing else than being present at different protocol events and foreign visits).

That's about it.

5. I will repatriate to NJ.

WV blows.

7. Well, some here in Montana say that

is it's windy here because Idaho sucks.

10. When I lived in Oklahoma...

We said it was windy because Texas sucks and Kansas blows.
WV is just weird as hell.

11. I have actualy heard thta before

but it's been a loooong time.

13. You won't get a test up here.

I wish people understood sometimes we’re just as stupid as the US. On March 10th, the Lynn Valley Care Centre in North Van sent a letter to family members of residents because a resident died of COVID-19. In the letter they parroted Health Canada’s “the risk to Canadians is very low”. On March 10th.

So you know what? We screwed up too.

And in BC only people hospitalized, first responders, and health care workers are getting tested. Everyone else is sitting on hold with 811, then getting pawned off on their GP’s line, and then back to 811 to be told to stay home and presume infection if they have symptoms.

Korea and Germany did it right. Canada and the US messed up and continue to mess up.

[Lock him up.]

15. Not in Quebec.

Single-Payer Healthcare + Testing everyone with symptoms, travelers or not. That's why they have the most cases of all the provinces.

4,840 cases
22 deaths
84 recovered

16. Well Qubec has always been its own world.

BC is failing.
