Politics
As a Republican and conservative I'm in favor of the uniting of the US and Canada. I do not believe this would have major political implications on either country. Currently the PM of Canada is Stephen Harper, a member of the conservative party and the Canadian house is very much divided the way the US house is. They have a slight Liberal / NDP majority just as the US does. Frankly I don't see why history drew the 49th parallel. What makes this line so special that it must divide land. What makes Saskatchewan so different from North Dakota or New York unlike Ontario. It all seems pretty much the same to me. The only contrast that I can see is Quebec, only due to the language they speak. Let's go from the 50 United States of America and the 10 Provinces of Canada to just plain ol' North America. Why not?
