Okay, so, let's get down to brass tacks, as my father would say. What would it actually take to make this work? I did something about this, and here are my thoughts.

First off, and within just a few billion dollars, Canada's economy, although small, is not tiny. It is roughly equivalent to that of Texas. So, considering the size of this merger, speaking as a Canadian and former Albertan that has for all of my life been absolutely sick of getting ass raped by Ottawa, I'm not willing to fully "dive into the deep end right away" and merge with the United States. I am, however, willing to start out as an autonomous region within the United States.

I am not happy with this "initial" offer (which, we all know is a joke, but we are just having a fun thought experiment, here). I also want Canada to also have ICE deportations, homes cannot be owned by corporations, both the IRS and the CRA are disbanded, the RCMP is first merged with the FBI and then either reformed or disbanded so that all new territories have to establish their own internal investigatory agencies and police forces. I want guarantees that our stock exchange will operate free and independently and list only Canadian companies (with a plan to merge the stock markets, say, 15 years from now, once cryptocurrency has taken over) The Central Bank of Canada is merged with the Federal reserve, and then disbanded. Provinces may be reorganized according to resources and economic output and culture/faggotry (IE, British Columbia is split into two provinces, Alberta and Saskatchewan are joined), but the 'notwithstanding clause' (allowing provinces to opt out of sweeping federal mandates) is preserved for a period of 30 years. Certain provinces which are not heavily populated must negotiate their own electoral college rights to maintain their voice within the Republic...
