Unfortunately no, that isn’t the case. Some countries do, some don’t. It’s not a requirement.

No thanks, the Euro area has enough problems itself. Hence their desire to rush in a CBDC, and to limit free speech.

This report outlines the economic fantasy land of Europe the best.

“To demonstrate our skepticism towards the Europeans’ ability to achieve escape
velocity and forever leave behind their zombie banking system, unmarketable
debt and complete dependence on suppressing price discovery - consider the
following policy reactions orchestrated by the European Central Bank (ECB) since
the 2008-09 crisis:
• European Financial Stability Facility (EFSF)
• European Financial Stabilisation Mechanism (EFSM)
• European Stability Mechanism (ESM)
• Outright Monetary Transactions (OMT)
• Long Term Refinancing Operation (LTRO)
• Long Term Refinancing Operation II (LTRO)
• Long Term Refinancing Operation III (LTRO)
• Tripartite Committee consisting of ECB, IMF, EC agreement (TROIKA)
• Forced austerity and bailouts of Portugal, Ireland, Italy, Greece, Spain
• Activation of FED USD Swap Lines
• Asset Purchase Program (APP)
• Corporate sector purchase programme (CSPP)
• Public sector purchase programme (PSPP)
• Asset-backed securities purchase programme (ABSPP)
• Covered Bond Purchase Programme (CBPP)
• Covered Bond Purchase Programme II (CBPP)
• Covered Bond Purchase Programme III (CBPP)
• Pandemic Emergency Purchase Programme (PEPP)
• Quantitative Easing (QE)
• Zero Interest Rate Policy (ZIRP)
• Negative Interest Rate Policy (NIRP)

Couldn’t hurt our case though, right?

So they can dump their migrant problem on us? Nah - I’m cool with not having vehicle ramming attacks every other month

Are they driving the vehicles across the ocean to ram you?

Cars don’t kill people, people kill people. Go look up vehicle ramming attacks by migrants in Europe the past decade.

Joachim Streit has never stepped foot in Canada. But that hasn’t stopped the German politician from launching a tenacious, one-man campaign that he readily describes as “aspirational”: to have the North American country join the EU.

“We have to strengthen the European Union,” said Streit, who last year was elected as a member of the European parliament. “And I think Canada – as its prime minister says – is the most European country outside of Europe.”

While he admitted that the possibility of Canada as a full member of the EU “may be aspirational for now”, he wondered if it was an idea whose time had come.

“Canada would be a strong member,” he said. “If Canada would be a member of the EU, it would rank 4th in terms of GDP. It’s part of Nato. And 58% of (working-age) Canadians have college degrees.”

Canada won’t become the 51st US state – but could it join the EU?

Donald Trump’s extraordinary threats have angered Canadians and Europeans, and the idea of a new kind of transatlantic alliance is gaining traction

Sorry we’re not getting along Canada but we have an illegal alien you’re going to have to take back. He’s addicted to a lot of drugs, and is a deadbeat dad many times over. His favorite hobby is accusing people of pedophillia.

Closer integration and cooperation, yes absolutely. Membership, no.

We don’t need to be anyone’s 51st state and we don’t need to be anyone’s 28th member state.

Ignoring whether this is a thing or not, those migrants would still be in Europe… Not Canada. The European Union and the Schengen zone are not the same thing.

Your comment wasn’t complex enough to merit this question. I was referring to the only part of your comment where it was relevant to. Which is almost all of it.
