Well, only 66% said they didn’t want the USA to invade Canada. So no, we won’t have the support of 83%. We’d be lucky to have 40% actually speak up on our behalf, and even fewer would act.

17% are willing to say that they WANT Canada to be part of the US. Only two-thirds are willing to say they would prefer Canadian independence.

What percentage would really care if their stated preference was not reality? The ceiling is 2 out of 3. The ceiling. That is as good as it gets.

What percentage would lift a finger to resist US dominion over Canada? What percentage would actively resist or take on any level of effort and or risk at all to prevent it? Dramatically less.

If the US invaded Canada, what percentage of Americans would choose to support Canada over their own county even if the invasion was illegal or immoral? Clearly, the majority would support their government. In that scenario, what percentage of Americans would you consider to represent “the enemy?”

And if you think I am being too harsh, let’s ask the question from a different angle. What percentage of Americans are doing anything at all to reduce the threat to Canada right now? I mean, doing anything at all? Only 2 in 3 can muster indicating it as a preference in answer to a question.

Many people reading this will insist that they did not ask for this. What percentage of those voted against Donald Trump in the last federal election? That number is less than one third. That is an easily verifiable fact. Less than one in three did the absolute bare minimum to stop the second Trump term from happening. That means 2 out of every 3 Americans did nothing back then. What are they doing now?

You need to revise your 17% number in your first sentence up dramatically. I am not hopeful that they answer to your second question hits anything close to double digits.

85% of the Canadian population is within 100 miles of the US border. Why would they go to the high arctic?

You fuck with us ya get the moose or the goose

No, they’re not “not sure”, they’re just cowards unwilling to voice their opinion because they know it’s morally objectionable.

It’s possible many of that 17% are ‘not sure’ because they failed to understand the question and couldn’t be bothered to read it twice. They are Americans.

Based on the apathy and avarice of your average american that helped put their country in its current state I doubt very much the majority will lift a pinkie.

They are not even fighting for their own country. They are too busy watching The Burnt Peanut and hiding in their basements which ice will soon be visiting them as well.

Guess they never heard what happened to people considered dissenters by the Nazi govt during WWII.

It will be a blanket way of filling Alligator Auschwitz Death Camps at a rate so fast it will make one’s head spin. All it takes is a sniveling ice coward to point and say dissenter! Poof you are detained. Wake up america, your life depends on it.

17% of Americans can take off,  eh.

17% of Americans are uneducated and don’t really know the consequences of war.

Yeah, if they actually took that up, d’oh!

There’s a fair minority in Canada, too. If it wasn’t for the whole 10x our population thing maybe it would be fine.

California has about the same population all on it’s own. Just the empty part of New England or Hawaii might be a good addition.

… Well, why don’t you want to be the 11th province.

Since I know you’re one of the good Americans, it’s not really going to answer the question of how they’d respond, since I’m honestly not sure.

I’ve had acquaintances actually asked this while down there, I’m not making it up.

I’m surprised its not ~30%

It seems to be the magic number you can get any survey of US residents to agree to no matter how ridiculous.

If you aren’t hitting that number even the crazies think it’s a bad idea.

Most likely the other half of the roughly 30% of Americans who represent the MAGA coalition think that annexation would be doing us a favour - elevating a bunch of ungrateful socialists to the American standard of living or something like that.

But why though? To seize their strategic maple syrup reserve?

Oh I don’t doubt that they were asked. Americans of that breed are simple creatures. America good. Elsewhere bad. Why would you NOT want to live in the good place with freedoms and GUNS!?

That’s it. That’s literally all the thinking that goes into it. You’re not missing something. They are just extremely stupid and propagandized into believing that the rest of the world is literally on fire and covered in the blood of babies at all moments.

The scary thing is, there are Canadians who want that too

Yes. They call themselves Conservatives.

30% wish Canada would annex the US.
