Does Canada’s future lie with Europe?

https://theconversation.com/does-canadas-future-lie-with-europe-253701

The first, by Érick Duchesne of Université Laval and Mehdi of Université Grenoble Alpes, lays out a comprehensive case in favour of Canada joining the EU, or, at the very least, significantly strengthening its ties with Europe. They write: “Canada’s future may well be shaped, in part, on the other side of the Atlantic.”

Personally I would prefer to get closer to Aus/NZ because we are similar in politics and culture, but Europe is nice too.

@otters_raft #Canada needs to build closer ties to countries everywhere that we do not share borders with.

We share a land border with Denmark. We should join the EU.
