They're pretty dumb, they keep saying "canada would be the 51st state" as if there aren't 10 provinces

They have to be accepted as one, just like we need 2 Dakotas and Carolinas.

The senate has to be balanced for Republicans, otherwise it's just not fair, you see?

American media promotes Canada as a singular place. Seattle is in Washington, but Vancouver is in Canada; Detroit is in Michigan, but Toronto is in Canada. The idea that other countries can also be broken down into sub-national jurisdictions that are not politically or culturally aligned just doesn't come up.

That's a privilege reserved only for 'Murica.
