| I have read most of the arguments both for and against such a union. Having travelled extensively in both countries, I have reached the conclusion that the differences we have are predominantly REGIONAL differences. As has been pointed out numerous times, Ontario is far different then Alberta, just >>> Read Full Text |

| Political implications |
The conservative elements in American government--that is, the Republicans--would do whatever was possible in their power to prevent Canada from joining the USA, for one big reason:
They would no longer have a chance of winning the Presidency or a majority in either House of Congress.

The way that American law is right now, the American government pretty much has the FDA refusing to hear any new drug submissions having anything to do with the use of marijuana as a medication.
In Canada, medical marijuana is legal. I know because as a person with Multiple Sclerosis I a >>> Read Full Text |

| It's Time |
Both countries spend billions of dollars "protecting" ourselves from each other. Canadian customs do not care if you bring in weapons, they only care if you pay the duty on them.
The E.U. is working well with countries that were at war just 3 generations ago. A model that involves, econo >>> Read Full Text |

| A United North America would increase the levels of creativity both cultural and scientific. What better gift can we give the future?

Well, I have a problem here.
They are kinda too much into violence down there...not all Americans, but the death rate in major cities...even when taking per capita into affect, is way too high.
They wouldn't allow a change to their constitution, so why dissolve ours? Give and take >>> Read Full Text |

| I totally endorse this union. There is little to loose and so much to gain in socio-economic union between nations. I firmly believe that a united North American is the only entity in the coming decades that can rightfully compete with the EU economic block and China.

Sir,
I agree entirely. As a Michigander, I find it preposterous that I have to sit through a forty-five minute traffic jam and an interrogation to cross a border on the other side of which I find a society identical to my own except for the weight, shininess, and inscription of the money.

To begin: where you commented on how we were once joined to the US you must have been referring to when we were all colonies of Britain, prior to the civil war.
The common acceptance of a large number of people owning fire arms almost on the same level as a vehicle is disturbing.
