While actually joining the EU might be a bit far-fetched, any trade barriers between Canada, Mexico and the EU should immediately be removed. A trading bloc should be created immediately that places punitive tariffs on the US. It will be painful, what choice do we have?

Thank you! I think Canadians are closer to Danes than Americans in many ways.

Yes, I think that too 🫶

Our values align closely. We are a small country, by population, but have huge hearts and love for our country.

Ireland is in the EU and no land attachment, we share the same bay with Canada so of course you could join

Ah, greater Galway Bay! So North America is Inis Mór and South America is Inis Meáin then?

reply

hey.rupert.murdochbait.click•12 days ago

Sorry Mike, but Trump has split Galway Bay in two: the North American Ocean and the South American Ocean.

Kind of like Korea but with a lot more water.

Is that the one where both countries periodically send a crew to hoist their flag, take the other one down (but leave a case of booze because it's all in good fun) ?

Yes 😆

jryerson.bsky.social•20 days ago

Exactly, let's join the EU, they won't get hit with tariffs until April btw

reply

richardengelhardt.bsky.social•19 days ago

Greenland is also right beside Nunavut.

But, honestly, they won't even ratify an 8 year old free trade agreement. That might be a good place to start.

Where do we sign?

reply

pez.bsky.social•20 days ago

Unfortunately, the EU seems to be more interested in balancing trade with the US instead of helping Canada.

The YouTube Greenland unofficial ambassador had a great a time here last summer, now that there are direct flights between us!

Please follow Qupanuk, she is amazing.

Not only that, Greenland and Canada are only 16km apart at their closest points. Not even International Waters between them. That's practically a border.

I'd like the European Union to change so it welcomes democracies, and strive for better democratic process, no matter the geography.

Currently, they're more about "free market" than working for the happiness of its citizens

Anyways, as a French, I'd welcome our Canadian cousins into the EU.
