Great article Julius. I think one of the largest stumbling blocks to this deal or idea of a deal is seniors. Myself I am on the edge of retirement and currently drawing my CPP and OAS but had planned to work for another couple of years especially in light of our current economic governance and outlook. So I'm sure many others would be in a similar situation as I am, As everything is right now I can afford to retire however, if it gets much worse that might change. I'm sure many seniors will wonder about what might happen to their CPP and OAS. Stabilizing that idea might go along way towards garnering support from the senior population.
You would get US Social Security and Medicare after 65. Let’s concentrate on the big picture first….destroying the venal and rapacious Canadian oligarchy that rules at will, steals from the middle class and locks people in their houses unless they follow state edicts .
Likely sadly true. The Canadian personality is founded on a monarchist power structure who told us it would keep us safe from the American revolutionaries. Canadians like Australians are loyal and obedient to the ruling oligarchy. Unless there is an intervention it's difficult to see how Canada escapes its destiny of beconing an economic backwater. British depravity is at the heart of the growing fracture between the the US and the degenerate British ruling class that has infiltrated US foreign policy since WW2. Hopefully president Trump realizes this and cuts the "special relationship"
Great points to study and analyze. Thank you for bringing them to the theoretical deal.
There's more than meets the eye and reading this, I believe president Trump may have not been serious about it.
Let's hope Canadians try to fix country within. I cannot believe no one has heard of the PPC party under Maxime Bernier. There's a reason for it, he's the only one that is proposing common sense solutions and to reduce government.
The PPC is the only party with long term tenable policies. Sadly, as the vast majority of Canadians are brainwashed by public “eduction”, and excessively subject to propaganda, they will never gain power in this country, barring some king of revival.
True. And with our electoral system and seeing how Elections Canada keeps changing rules and criteria to prevent PPC entering the debates, it's frustrating to say the least.
I have never been so impressed with a vision such as that described above by Julius Ruechel. I am a Canadian army veteran, Alberta businessman and author recently retired from all three activities at 84 years of age with many American family relatives.
I became a committed Alberta separatist within a couple of years of Pierre Elliott Trudeaus election in 1968, who introduced Marxism to the Canadian public (which of course many adopted almost immediately). I have been waiting for President Trumps invitation since his first term!
Under today's ideological political conditions, Canada has become nothing more than what Justin Trudeau told Canadians he was building; a post national, Marxist inspired, divided, corrupt, un-Christian, bankrupt country comprised of 13 little colonies, none of which are interested in or willing to get along, all of which have cultures different from their neighboring province and I would welcome the opportunity to become an American citizen.
So, Julius, you're expecting to get on Trump's good side by liking a comment such as this?
Of course, Wiggin is manifestly a smug imbecile. Trump had the insight to grasp what no one else thought could be a possible future, that the Republican party could rather easily be remade into a noninterventionist, neopopulist, America First party. Like him or hate him, Trump is a political genius, while the term, "genius," will never be attached to Wiggin in any way. I also have a hunch that had Wiggin been shot as Trump was in July, he would have been reduced to a blubbering old lady, clutched up fetally as he lay on the platform.
We Americans should have just made the wholehearted effort to grab Canada when we had the chance in The War of 1812.
I would be glad to get rid of Celsius for Fahrenheit again. Although that particular request has the depth of a fingerbowl, when we should be keeping on eye on the big issues instead. Because there are several REALLY BIG issues here.
We either allow China to continue to take control of our country under the careful guidance of Trudeau or we become a fifty first state. There will be no peaceful solution to what is going to happen to this country. If you want your rights and freedoms back and this land that was once called Canada then you will have to fight for it physically with what guns we have left
WOW! That's a great article....and I don't agree about making it shorter. The key is to get the attention of the smart/common-sense people, and they will need the kind of detail you included.
Canada desperately needs to get out from 'under' the Brits - especially the "British Crown"!
The Clown/Crown has been the biggest criminal support system for years, and the current "king"
takes the prize as he courts the UN/WEF/WHO/ and political puppets like our Crime Minister.
100% accurate. I have a similar sense about Trump. First, he's 100% improvement over the D-Gang; however, there is mounting evidence that he is just a (confuse the 'right') version of the current global situation - they are ALL Uni-Party.
In spite of that, this 'Canada-State' thing is still worth pursuing to get rid of the non-democratic-top-down system we suffer under. A slightly modified Republic is better.
Masterful article, Julius. Don't listen to David Solway. Your letter, although lengthy, was absolutely necessary in that it addressed all aspects of the debate at hand - economic, political, cultural, etc. We need to put everything on the table in order to cut through the silly Canadian style, red and white jingoism we are currently seeing. Did you catch the March 10 "Elbows Up" rally on Parliament Hill? Pathetic. Typical Trudeaupian juvenile "patriotism". For God's sake, fellow Canadians, can we not be adults, accept the fact that Canada has been a failed state for decades, and accept the reality that we have only two options - become a CCP vassal state or join America. I choose the latter, thank you very much. Bravo, Julius, I tip my Harley Davidson hat to you, good sir!
The good monarchs were murdered with the help of Phuckingham Palace. Most notably the Romanoffs were betrayed and abandoned to the tender mercies of the Bolshevik Jews by the Palace and Lloyd George.
That was breathtakingly beautiful and honest. I can't wait to see if Trump responds. In my opinion, you hit all the nails on the head. I smiled in agreement.
Well conceived and expressed. Thank you. I'm wondering, if USA is extending a warm welcome to Canadians, might they also loosen the "only 183 days annually" restriction for back and forth, at least for those of us who own second homes in the USA? I would gladly vote for Ontario to become the 51st state, but fear Ontarians will dig in their heels in refusal. Therefore, maybe USA will offer special consideration to individual families like ours, who certainly support the local economy well whenever we are in our second home. We would like to have the freedom to enjoy more than 183 days annually south of the border.
Trump will need two more administrations to read this. If you really want to send a readable letter, Julius, keep it to under three pages--and probably fewer.
You're a great writer, Julius, but you've just made my argument. Trump has no time for another 10,000 worder from someone he doesn't know. Through my writing I've had communications with the very kind of people youi're addressing your letter to, and I can assure you they won't read it. For one thing, what they have told me is: if you're going to write a veritable screed, append an executive summary. That gives you a chance, however slim. Of ourse, the letter format may just be a clever template for an actual article or essay, but I suspect you really meant to send a missive. It just won't fly. We have your books, which Janice and I much appreciate. That's your strength.
Adam Townsend (@adamscrabble) on X tweeted in 2020 that he envisioned that there would be a realignment to city-states within the US. You two might be onto something.
I pray he responds. The only way he will be able to paint a picture of the future for Canadians and not have his vision poisoned by Canadian politicians and mainstream media is to engage with independent media! I wish someone could land an interview with him to ask these questions...

United we stand, divided we fall!
(British were expert at etching away at these fault lines in society.)
Not too many sheep around here in the rural west!

Can you also ask him to end daylight saving time?
I'm 100% on board with this idea!
😂😂😂😂

Thank you Lloyd!
What a fantastic essay, great questions
Great questions which totally exceed the unflushable turd’s reading skills and comprehension levels.
So, Julius, you're expecting to get on Trump's good side by liking a comment such as this?

Actually I thought he was referring to Turdeau.
Julius, Another outstanding article .
I am very glad Trish introduced you to me.
For all the reasons you enumerated and elucidated , I would reorder your 14 questions - 1 stays at one but 13 and 14 become two and three.
Three Reasons. - Leverage , Setting the table and Fairness.
The Quebecois are quite capable of shaping their own destiny so I would not let that complicate things .
I would also ditch your Celsius demand which if it was serious is silly.
Thanks T and J!
The Celcius/Fahrenheit thing was meant to be tongue-in-check 😉
I would be glad to get rid of Celsius for Fahrenheit again. Although that particular request has the depth of a fingerbowl, when we should be keeping on eye on the big issues instead. Because there are several REALLY BIG issues here.
A sane and useful conversation. I hope it can continue
We either allow China to continue to take control of our country under the careful guidance of Trudeau or we become a fifty first state. There will be no peaceful solution to what is going to happen to this country. If you want your rights and freedoms back and this land that was once called Canada then you will have to fight for it physically with what guns we have left
Good list, but Trump should also be asked how he intends to master the US national debt.
WOW! That's a great article....and I don't agree about making it shorter. The key is to get the attention of the smart/common-sense people, and they will need the kind of detail you included.

Nice! Groucho Marx class wit. My hat would be off to you, sir, but I'm an American and I haven't got a hat.
As long as you've got a holster and something in it.
You're a great writer, Julius, but you've just made my argument. Trump has no time for another 10,000 worder from someone he doesn't know.

'Potentially gaining a massive country under your own national banner is something that wars have been fought over.'
Indeed; in fact one is being fought right now.
Adam Townsend (@adamscrabble) on X tweeted in 2020 that he envisioned that there would be a realignment to city-states within the US. You two might be onto something.
It would resolve A LOT of the internal political tensions! Fingers crossed! 🙏
Great article with some very well thought out ideas and suggestions Julius. Can't wait for Trump's response.
I pray he responds. The only way he will be able to paint a picture of the future for Canadians and not have his vision poisoned by Canadian politicians and mainstream media is to engage with independent media! I wish someone could land an interview with him to ask these questions...
Julius maybe reach out to Juno News or Rebel News?
That's been my experience as well.
