I would love to see that, a new transatlantic EU on the ruins of EU and NATO

If Canada wants to join, I’d welcome them with open arms.

I doubt many European countries would be against it.
Maybe Hungary. But that country can join brics or become the newest USA state
uniqueheadshape on
Can Australia join too? 😀

I really dont wanna pay VAT tho

As a Californian I’m proud of EU and Canada! I hope California can rise up without the US holding us back one day

Does the EU really want a 9,000km undefended land border with the United States?

That would be pretty funny with the UK being out and Canada being in.

Do they get to join Eurovision as well?

Canada [has already pushed back on any suggestion of EU membership](https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-eu-partnership-deepening-ties-1.7570680), with Carney stating there are no plans to join the bloc. “The short answer is no,” the Canadian PM said when asked about the idea at the NATO summit earlier this year. “That’s not the intent. That’s not the pathway we’re on.”

The EU would have a land border with the US

Also, I think Canada should have its own nukes. Start building

Not being able to negotiate independent trade deals with the US despite sharing a land border would presumably be a sticking point for Canada
SonnyJackson27 on
As long as very good trade, travel and work deals are in place between the two countries, there’s no actual reason for an ‘official’ EU join. Basically, let’s be good friends with benefits.

It would be very hard for Canada to adopt the heath and safety regulations for food and consumer goods required for the European common market and still have the same cross border trade with the USA they have now.

If Canada joins EU, the EU will kinda transcend into worldwide/international union than just European. Honestly, I’m not against it. Canada is cool and it would be nice to have them in our economic region.

Canada would be welcome, but what about Alberta? Canadas own Hungary.

I really wish Scotland got our independence vote. I really really didn’t want to leave the EU 🙁
Fancy_Caramel9087 on
Hell yes!
This european would absolutely vote in favor

As a European i think that would be awesome.

As an EU citizen living in Canada I highly support this.

French here. Our foreign minister is an utter joke, especially to former ones. Take this statement with a pinch of salt.

Can Australia join? We are in Eurovision …. Surely that’s enough?

Adopt me too I’m a country

As a Canadian that lives in Scotland and wants to move to the Netherlands, yes please.

Canada shouldn’t even think about join this floating ship. We have our own problems as it is.

I’d be thrilled to see Canada becoming a part of EU.

Canada has a land border with Denmark and a ferry service to France, so why not?
xParesh on
I would love to see this happen. Canada would fit right in.
culingerai on
Australia here. If canada gets in, we want in too.
Edit, and our mates in New Zeland too
Bartleby9 on
Would love to have them

People seem to be taking something that was said by a French minister (who will probably be gone next year) in jest a bit too seriously…
Canada would have to change so many things to be even eligible to join the EU, starting with their entire food standards, which are more aligned to US than the EU…

Should EU change name as NAU (The North Atlantic Union)?

We could swap them in and Hungary out
