It’s Pizza the Hutt. For a cheese grater, you’re not very up to date on your shredded cheese based characters.

No they’re too big, instantly doubling the population wouldn’t go well. At most a Euro style partnership if a few more western states broke off.

I don’t really understand what your point is. Do you mean our election campaigns don’t last 4 years? Y’all could plan to book voting day off 20 years in advance because it’s not a surprise, ours can pop up any time with a month’s notice. And by importance do you mean our PM generally doesn’t have the power to crater the world economy in a matter of days? Or are you saying ours are more important because we vote for the entire government on 1 day and you just pick one guy?

I don’t think non-Canadians know how angry we have to be to boo a national anthem. We’d cheer for the North Korean anthem if they sent a hockey team for us to play against.

Voting isn’t a holiday in Canada either but we make it work. Vote early, vote by mail. You can use whatever excuse makes you feel better but taking an hour or 2 out of your day once every 4 years is a small price to pay for democracy.
