GordonTullockFan on September 16, 2026 9:48 pm I’m pretty sure Canada beats all of those countries by most metrics that the EU requires for accession.
jatawis on September 16, 2026 9:50 pm Canada is not joining the EU as they are not a European country.
ATR2400 on September 16, 2026 9:50 pm Perhaps, but: – We’re not and won’t be full members like they’re aspiring to be – We are a well-developed, stable country. If we WERE in Europe, we’d meet many of the metrics that the EU cares about. – The EU needs our shit and we need their trade. It’s a pragmatic bargain
