The President keeps floating the idea of Canada as the 51st state. Perry Kinkaide has a counteroffer, and it’s a lot more interesting than a straight-up merger.
Building on the KEI Network webinar and podcast discussion, Perry walks through what real terms would look like: 11 new states instead of one, 22 senators, roughly 53 House seats, a decade of tax relief, and the retirement of Canada’s federal debt. It’s a sharp, tongue-in-cheek thought experiment that gets at something serious: Canada brings a lot more to the table than most people assume, and any conversation about union needs to start there.
Come ready to laugh, argue, and maybe rethink how you see Canada’s leverage.
