With all the Articles by G&M Journalist in the G&M, it would be simpler if we just allow ourselves to be another set of States to the USA.  Seems our Journalists are spending more time on USA then on Canada.  At least being part of the USA we would have a real dollar worth something, and all those extra costs we have to pay in subsidies would disappear, so not only would be 30% richer from the rise in the dollar but we would have less personal expenses.   Just have to figure out how we can affect the Electoral College to put in the proper team.
However, perhaps the Journalists if not thinking we have grievances against the USA could better plan on letting readers know just how penalized we are for being Canadians with all these extra costs that other countries may not have.
