        Hmm, what if we rotated the lines 90* and consolidated the number of stripes and maple leaves:

            Nah, I’m referencing the fact that Tim’s is owned by a Brazilian company and not a Canadian one and hasn’t been Canadian in years.

      I once knew an American in university in Canada who hung up a flag by his bed that combined the designs of the Canadian flag and the American flag. It was like the Canadian flag but the red parts were the American flag

    Uhm no fucking thank you? I dont want to be associated with that shitshow in any way. They absolutely do not qualify to be anything-canada until they get their shit together. Maaaybe ‘worse-canada’. But honestly I’d prefer if they just kept our name out their mouth.

    As a Minnesotan, we’re the only south Canada and I’ll apologize passive-aggresively to anyone that disagrees.

      Born & raised in the N Midwest, and one of the running “jokes” re: Canada was that the US’d annex it as soon as it ran outta trees/maple syrup/flannel/etc. 🙄 Buncha sub-literate mouthbreathers, those “role models”, eh?

          “upp peninsula” is worse than “pin number” or “atm machine” 🥲

              Fair. Apparently, a childhood in the ol’ LP still gets finicky after all these years. 😝

              Fun fact: for all of those formative years, I’d heard the UP residents referred to as “yoopers”. Hell, a fairly common bumper sticker back then was, and I quote: “So ya to da yu pee, eh?” —which is “yooper” for “So, headed North, hmm?”

              Fast forward to me leaving the Midwest for all sorts of places, domestic and foreign, only to hear for the first time that the yoopers had a name for those in the LP.

              “Trolls”, because we live under the bridge. Clever fuckers. 🤣

              Take off, ya hoser.

    Hard no from me. Should be North Mexico. Official name Democratic People’s Republic of Mexico, or DPRM for short.

      Mexico is already actually named Estados Unidos de Mexico, or the United States of Mexico. So no name change would really be necessary

        No, no. The change of name is intentional. DPRM is the most fitting name for the current Magastan as the only difference between it and the country I named it after is the language they speak.

      Gotta learn it’s “O Canada”, and then gotta learn the French version as well (“Ô Canada”). The anthem was actually commissioned by the Governor General of Quebec :)
