    Having us as one state - jamming Quebec, BC, Ontario, etc all together would be a recipe for disaster above and beyond all the other disasters involved. It would be like, I don’t know, merging New York and Georgia into one state.

    The FLQ alone would instantly revive and start up their bombing campaigns again.

    And be real, they would never give us status as states. We’d be Puerto Rico North at best until the violence died down in a century of terrorism and genocide.

    Yeah, there’s grass and then there’s grass. Sure. I got no beef with a field of mixed grass that’s left to grow, especially if there’s mixed native wildflowers etc.

    It’s the fields of monoculture non-native grass that the Suburban White Dude[tm] wants to obsessively cultivate and that seems to be the goal of parks departments everywhere that’s the problem.

    My partner ranted to me the other day that she couldn’t get a 10m^2 area from a local municipal parks department recently for a Miyawaki forest plot. No reasons, just “no.” Very frustrating group of fuckin’ boomers.
