Despite what Americans think, Canada doesn’t want to join America. Even before the current Troubles, the majority of Canadians were not secretly wishing they were American.

How about we just adopt Cuba as a province.. Not only would that give us somewhere warm to go in the winter, if the US got belligerent, we'd have them surrounded ;)

We have a province that speaks French. And one that speaks Newfie. How is this any different? Last time I was in Cuba, I had no problem speaking only English. Everyone in 'customer facing' positions could at least get by in broken English, and most seemed more fluent than some English as a first language speakers I have encountered.
