Eber: “EH” Canada as 51st State

Is it possible to get Canada as a 51st State?  Maybe break it up in two parts and have the 51st and 52nd State.  We have a large trade between us.  We speak the same basic language—though some in Quebec and Montreal prefer Franch—but in L.A. in most parts the preferred language is Spanish.

“Even better merging the two countries might offer an excellent alternative to the  list of successors when Gavin Newsom is termed out as Governor in 2026. 

Whether it be Eleni ( I can’t remember her last name) Kounalakis, Attorney General Rob Bonta, L.A. Mayor Karen Bass or even “Shamala”, these prospects sure sounds beak.

Compared to this group, Justin Trudeau seems like a good fit. He certainly is leftist enough not to mention having great hair.

What better experienced politician than the recently resigned Prime Minister of Canada is better qualified to lead the Golden State.

Trudeau’s accomplishments include:

  • Early childcare assistance, dental care, pharmacy services, and medical coverage that belongs in the Socialism Hall of Fame..
  • using DEI policies to where his appointments to Canada’s Supreme Court have resulted in women holding the majority of seats. (based on gender not ability)
  • Initiating a Carbon Tax that compares well with California’s Cap and Trade scheme.

Replacing Newsom with Trudeau, few will notice.  Same arrogance, gel in hair, hate for freedom and bad policies.  Though Trudeau will have to learn Spanish to get around California.

“EH” Canada as 51st State by Richard Eber

Richard Eber, Exclusive to the California Political News and Views,  1/24/25  www.capoliticalnewsandviews.com

As a kid the only thing I knew about Canada was watching the television series Sergeant Preston of the Yukon.

Even though the show was filmed in Hollywood, I knew Sergeant Preston’s dog was named Yukon King and his horse Rex.

Prior to DEI, PEI stood for Prince Edward Island Mussels.  I was also aware three of my favorite entertainers Joni Mitchell,  Neil Young  and Martin Short grew up north of the USA border.

It was my understanding Canadian Club was not an exclusive society that would deny me membership.  As an adult visiting Victoria, it was my pleasure to share High Afternoon Tea (no drugs allowed) with my daughter Haley at the Empress Hotel.

With these positive experiences in tow, it has been of great interest to learn President Donald Trump mentioned his intention to make Canada into our 51st State.

On one level this makes total sense.  English is the first language spoken up North. This is a bonus compared to California.  They have a Democratic government modeled on the British model.

In ways it seems to be an upgrade on our system because it is possible to get rid of a Joe Biden without having to endure 4 years of his senile leadership.

California  merging with Canada looks promising, Our politics of our cold weather neighbor are decidedly Blue. Socialism rules in the land where Canucks can be found. 

Even better merging the two countries might offer an excellent alternative to the  list of successors when Gavin Newsom is termed out as Governor in 2026. 

Whether it be Eleni ( I can’t remember her last name) Kounalakis, Attorney General Rob Bonta, L.A. Mayor Karen Bass or even “Shamala”, these prospects sure sounds beak.

  • Initiating a Carbon Tax that compares well with California’s Cap and Trade scheme.
  • Legalizing cannabis throughout the land. Gavin would not have it any other way.

Not to be forgotten in merging the two countries would be the desire of Canadian women to fulfill the Beach Boys dream “I wish they all could be California Girls.”

With English being the preferred language to French, Americans will need to know more about the 51st State than a Avril Lavigne song or about the exploits of the Montreal Canadians.

This could mean hockey becoming our national pastime and having 12 players per side and only 3 downs available for football  A “Hoser”  in Canada is a hick or hillbilly.  They call Chesterfields couches.  A 25 piece patio set consists of a chair and a case of Labatts beer.

Other than skeletons referring to insects with antlers to be Moose-Quiteos, all that will be known of the two countries mergers (Greenland included) is that “Snowbird” retirees from both places will be spending the winter in Florida.

We are not sure about changing our national anthem to “Eh Canada”  but that’s what negotiations are for.

Donald Trump’s other candidate for a takeover, Greenland is a more complicated endeavor.  Other than being a refueling stop to and from Europe during the days of propeller planes, little is known about this Island.

Over a 1000 years ago convicted murderer Erik the Red was exiled from Norway.  He traveled to Greenland founding a settlement there. His son Leif Erickson has been credited by historians for having discovered America.

Should the United States purchase Greenland, Columbus Day might be in jeopardy.  My wife suggested we might honor these two explorers by adding an additional holiday without breaking any DEI protocols.

As for California, its connection to Greenland is limited. The best this Danish colony of 50,000 residents can hope for is changing the state capital from Sacramento to Solvang.

With Split Pea Anderson’s closed in nearby Buellton, smorgasbords along with Mrs Olson serving Folgers Coffee would provide a welcome upgrade to the for legislators

So much for President Trump’s imperialistic intentions. The world is still safe for democracy.

  1. Oh please…Quebec and Montreal should be left out of Statehood, and sanctioned as part of the EU. We’ll take all of Western Canada…
