    As a New England resident: Canada, if you’re listening, make us your new province.

      How do you feel about swearing allegiance to HM George, King of Canada?

        Not gonna lie; I always liked the British royal family (Though I liked The Queen better and Prince Harry even more). When I had cable, I kept William and Kate’s wedding on my DVR multiple times (but as a fellow Katherine, I’m biased)

        I thought there was a sizeable anti-royalist contingent in Canada? Since any “reallocation” of states into provinces would likely imply some level of negotiation and horse trading, maybe this is also an opportunity for Canada to splitting off from the Commonwealth Nations, or at least no longer accepting the royal family as meaningful in any regard. Idk how that would work, that sound to me like it’d be workable.

          There is, and maybe. But reforming our system probably shouldn’t be done with American input.
