As a Canadian this reminds me of Quebec. They’re always going on about seceding, but they’re land locked, and without the rest of the country they’d be financially and socially FUCKED.
Reminder that Texas’s yearly operating budget is roughly 51 billion, and they receive 62 billion in federal aid, so without the rest of the country, Texas can’t even run the state
but they’re land locked
Yeah, except for the main East maritime entryway and port lol. Classic good ol’ Quebec bashing.
That’s not how that math works out, you are not including taxes collected. The balance is still negative but there’s a smaller gap.
Texas is on the Gulf of Mexico… Also, I double checked and you used a proper ellipsis so we can be friends.
Not only is it not landlocked, it separates all of the Atlantic Maritime provinces from the rest of Canada, and governs part of the Great Lake waterways.
And what percentage of the national debt will they take with them when they leave? Same with Alberta. That’s where it all falls apart.
