"Preliminary talks between Canadian and European officials will begin on Oct. 17 at a summit in Montreal...."

hmm u will never leave our grasp lol

Sounds like a trade deal and not a joining of the EU

that is very interesting

lol, thats not what the article says at all. Looks like they are just looking for other places to trade with since the US is in the shitter.

Seems far fetched... I'm going to be watching this!

Are you stupid? The HEADER reads:

"Provinces key to EU trade deal, Quebec Premier says"

So..guess what the article is about ey? :1orglaugh

Did you even read the article before posting it?

it's a trade agreement... nothing to see here

Yeah, read before posting shit lol:1orglaugh

That is the first step stone of the totalitarian tiptoe.

No no, they actually want to dig a trench across the 49th parallel until Canada snaps off and we can paddle it over to Europe and actually JOIN with them. :D

Serious.


Sounds like a good plan to me. Especially since later in the article they say:

Oh no0ooo... not forward thinking in Canada! Who do these canucks think they are?? :pimp


Seriously we already have some pretty big trade deals in place with many EU countries, no reason not to make it a "NAFTA-like" agreement and turn up the volume.

typical panic reactions: some motherfuckers buy gold, others try to read...

would be best to diversify trade partners anyway. sounds like a good move.

all the euros in canada are homesick and want back in ;)

I was going to say...


the US would have a shit fit if you north people went to the Euro.

I guess when the ship sinks ( USA) everybody jumps off the boat.

EA is new name for Eu+CanadA

Do you know anything about how the EU came about?

Many countries in the EU do not use the Euro :2 cents:

I know what the article is about. Learn what question marks are about. :2 cents:

I do you ass. But you were insinuating something. Especially the "wtf?" bit at the end. Admit it: you read it wrong AND you jumped to conclusions.

I was wrong about what? The subject wasn't "OMG HOLY SHIT! CANADA IS JOINING THE EU IN A FEW WEEKS!!! WOW!!!!"

yeah .. cause we dont want them too . . )


your economy has to meet certain standards first . . .THEN and only then you can use the EURO

only UK dont want to use it . . all others do .. and cant wait till we ALLOW them to use it ;)

The UK definitely does not want to use it and large majorities in countries that make up "New Europe" are also very against the Euro :2 cents:

This isn't far-fetched at all. I do expect Canada to join some broader Form of the EU some time in the future. Same for Australia.

Yeah, it wasn't that long ago that people thought a European Union was inconceivable :2 cents:

However, that IS what you were insinuating.

Well, that's true. On the greater scale of things we're quite similar at this stage to the US. We're just in an earlier stage. The seperate countries(states) have their own laws but there is a unified European law(there almost was a constitution). We share a currency and the the rest of the countries(states) will follow. There is a European capital, everything.

The constitution they tried to push through has now become the Treaty of Lisbon. In most EU countries treaties can be ratified without the people of the country voting. Ireland, fortunately, requires people to vote on such legislation and the majority of voters there voted in opposition to it. They will eventually find a way to push this through and the EU will be one LARGE step closer to becoming the "United States of Europe or more accurately the EUSSR...

Yes, the EU is not going the route of the US, as you insinuate, in so much as it is going the route of the USSR, but instead of invading countries to expand their territory the EU more or less bribes them. The EU was, some say, modeled to be a "nicer" version of the USSR and the way the central government of the EU is being setup in a very similar manner.
