Can we coordinate with Oregon and Washington to join Canada?

That aside, California leads the US in many ways, but we have a tendency to go too far and do really dumb things. We’re pretty good at self congratulations even when other states stare, slack-jawed at our blunders. It’s nice to have perspective.

i freaking love the idea of Cascadia becoming autonomous and independent. I’d love it if New England did that too.

It’s an interesting idea, but it can’t possibly happen. The federal government has too much military infrastructure in different parts of the US, especially nuclear material. They’d never let anyone secede with it.

It’s not come to anything. They tried this a few years ago and it failed. “approved for signature gathering” doesn’t mean shit

I would prefer using an indigenous name for the region. But since california had so many tribes, perhaps that is impossible.
