In a Fox News interview posted to his personal X account on Wednesday, O’Leary appeared to vouch for Canadians, suggesting that citizens are interested in joining forces with its southern neighbours.

“I like this idea and at least half of Canadians are interested,” O’Leary said.

“The 41 million Canadians, I think most of them would trust me on this deal.”

I wonder how many people from the States would prefer that the US become a Canadian province.

Only the Blues States should be annexed by Canada. The red states can wallow in the shitholes they created.

If only just for the free healthcare and federally legal cannabis you'd have my vote.

If all Americans thought like this, I might support a union too. Unfortunately, you're outnumbered.

I've seen some Canadian hicks. no thanks.

this whole "thing" screams loudly like a red herring and is only meant to distract from the failures of the incoming administration.

O'Leary is a pompous sack of shit that's only preparing the runway for his golden cash cow, Trump.
