"Canada is not eternal, but if it is going to go, let it go with a bang rather than a whimper."Pierre E. Trudeau |

"We're more than friends and neighbors and allies; we are kin, who together have built the most productive relationship between any two countries in the world today."Ronald Reagan |
 |
|
"The penetrative influence of trade by rail and coastal lines, the mental propensity of the two peoples living under the same or similar conditions, industrial and social, the constant inter-communication of Canadians and Americans are all powerful factors making for annexation."Henri Bourassa |

"Canada and the United States have reached the point where we can no longer think of each other as foreign countries."Harry S. Truman |
 |
|
"Geography has made us neighbors. History has made us friends. Economics has made us partners. And necessity has made us allies. Those whom nature hath so joined together, let no man put asunder. What unites us is far greater than what divides us."John F. Kennedy |

"The destiny of Canada is to unite, not divide."Lester B. Pearson |

"The Canadian is not an American - at least, not entirely, not yet."Alistair Horne |

"When I've been in Canada, I've never heard a Canadian refer to an American as a 'foreigner'. He's just an 'American'. And, in the same way, in the United States, Canadians are not 'foreigners', they're 'Canadians'."Franklin D. Roosevelt |

Here are the videos we produced (and some we didn't) to help North Americans build an informed opinion concerning this idea. There will be many information segments covering the various aspects of the annexation proposition.
A short introduction segment to Annexation.ca and the general idea behind it.
Canada + United States = America.
This information segment shows the fluctuating levels of support for annexation in recent times. The basic idea is that Western Civilization got derailed by 9/11, and no where is this better demonstrated then with the annexation proposition and the drastic shift in support that resulted from this turn of events.
Author Les Horswill speaks with Steve Paikin from the Agenda about a provocative article entitled "A More Perfect Union" which he wrote on the topic of a Canada-US union. The actual article is featured here.

Some thoughts about why the timing for achieving it in our generation is right.
Explores some of the strategic considerations that make a Canada-US union desirable.
We are private citizens holding free discussions on the topic of annexation.
Annexation.ca is not a formal organization. In fact, we are random normal every day people hailing from North America and beyond who share a common interest in discovering the possibilities that might enable our civilization to renew itself and fully realize its manifest destiny.
First we explore every perspective that must be considered when discussing this subject. This means daring to think outside the box and to sometimes dwelve into somewhat taboo topics.
We then proceed to debate every aspect of each idea by considering the advantages and inconveniences that they imply, along with feasability assessments based on a 'least friction, least effort' approach.
Based on the results of this research, we are able to envisage solutions that help overcome the difficult barriers which stand in the way of such a transformation of our national identities.
We are able to synthesize a comprehensive set of solutions which then translate into meaningful proposals providing a worthwhile motive and a framework for achieving annexation.

Stanley BingFortune Magazine Columnist
"An interesting and comprehensive website "dedicated to the exploration of the potentialities for a democratic annexation of Canada to the United States of America" may be found at http://www.annexation.ca. I have just joined as a registered member of their Forum. And here I thought I was kidding."
Andrew SteeleGlobe and Mail Columnist
"Annexation.ca has a humble yet interesting forum with meaningful discussions and scenarios on the topic of uniting Canada and the USA."
Pierre LemieuxGun Loving Economist
"A potentially very interesting idea.."
Barry ChamishIsraeli-Canadian Journalist and Author
"Actually, I can see some good coming out of your movement. Barry."
Julie CouillardWoman of intrigue
"When it comes to an agreement with the Americans I think that for the moment they have bigger problems then us, be they economic, health-care, internal politics, etc. So I don't see what we would have to gain and to tell you everything with the right-wing government that we are stuck with right now I think we already look enough like the Bush administration as things stand! We even lost our image that was respected and beloved internationally so I advocate electing for ourselves a government that will re-establish the true Canadian values, which is to say a great conscience and environmental responsibility, against war but rather coming to aid at the international level....and most importantly an aid that isn't financed by big oil that would help a lot..."
Marc GarneauFederal MP and renowned astronaut
"Complex subject. I lived in the United States for a period of 9 years. I have members of my family which are American. Like Canadians, the Americans are far from being an homogenous people. You just need to visit Texas, California, Maine or Kansas to notice how different they are in their values. As a Canadian, I don't share some of the values that the majority of Americans share together and I am convinced that it's reciprocal. So strictly on the layer of values, I don't see a merger of our two countries and we should instead evolve as independent countries, linked by our shared needs and our friendship. Marc."

"Your organization has undertaken an initiative of historic proportions."

"It interests me a lot, as both my parents were Canadians."
Eric Jon PhelpsAnti-Jesuit Conspiracy Theorist
"Dear Alexandre, In theory yes, it would be a good idea---if both nations were run by patriots and not Jesuit controlled minions. Thus, there must be secession of every state and province to then realign with other states and provinces with the same nationalistic goals. Roman Catholic Quebec needs to secede, but be its own White Catholic nation. But it is my opinion that the Jesuits ruling both the US and Canada are going to merge both nations in the near future----to the detriment of all of us. For that merger will be via the strong hand of an American Fascist military dictator in response to Jesuit Obama's socialist communism. Lord bless, Brother Eric."
