    Technically, territories don’t count as provinces so that would make it the 11th.

    Or rather 4th territory since the US has demonstrated it can’t be trusted with full self governance for at least a few decades. Call it the “South Territory”.

      Give Puerto Rico provincehood though. They’ve earned it.

      I once knew an American in university in Canada who hung up a flag by his bed that combined the designs of the Canadian flag and the American flag. It was like the Canadian flag but the red parts were the American flag

      Born & raised in the N Midwest, and one of the running “jokes” re: Canada was that the US’d annex it as soon as it ran outta trees/maple syrup/flannel/etc. 🙄 Buncha sub-literate mouthbreathers, those “role models”, eh?

              Fair. Apparently, a childhood in the ol’ LP still gets finicky after all these years. 😝

              Fun fact: for all of those formative years, I’d heard the UP residents referred to as “yoopers”. Hell, a fairly common bumper sticker back then was, and I quote: “So ya to da yu pee, eh?” —which is “yooper” for “So, headed North, hmm?”

              Fast forward to me leaving the Midwest for all sorts of places, domestic and foreign, only to hear for the first time that the yoopers had a name for those in the LP.

              “Trolls”, because we live under the bridge. Clever fuckers. 🤣

              Take off, ya hoser.

      I think Canada and Mexico should split America. Mexico takes the south west, Canada takes the north, Hawaii becomes independent and the south east can be renamed “The Union”, which consists of all the worst parts of what was America, just like they want.
