One in five Americans (20 per cent) polled by Leger this week say they would like their state to join Canada, more than double the proportion of Canadians who said they would like their country to become the 51st state of the United States. Article content

“Only 9 per cent of Canadians believe it is likely that Canada will become the 51st U.S. state. By contrast, 20 per cent of Americans would like their state to join Canada and become a Canadian province, a proportion that is higher among respondents aged 18 to 34 (30 per cent),” reads the new Léger report.

You’re living in a fantasy world if you think Florida wants to join Canada. Florida has gotten redder and redder in the past few years. Disney could simply up and leave anytime if they wanted to.

Yeah just pack up the Castle. Certain areas of Florida are getting reder.

There's a joke in Florida "where should I visit, where are the cultural scenes, good museums, nice clubs" and we pull up an election map and point at the blue.

As for Disney they can't "move" they would just stop funding that park until it died. There's no moving it.
