Okay everyone, time to get started working on a Eurovision entry.
I mean, arguably, conditions permitting, you don’t necessarily need to be an actual, full fledged member of anything to participate. But in any case, yes, please do, we need new blood.
Yeap. Look at us here in Australia. In Eurovision and we don’t belong to shit.
Eurovision is organized by the european broadcasting union, not the european union.
As Israel is taking part in the song contest, I can‘t see hurdles for Canada.
As said, EBU, not EU. Israel is member of EBU, Canada is not. And joining EU makes no difference.
Canada is associate member of the EBU. Thing is you can only be a full member if your territory falls within the EBA, which isn’t even defined by the EBU but the ITU.
There’s precendence for associate members to participate in the ESC, though, to wit, Australia, and if Canada were to become a EU member I bet they’d also be allowed in. I also very much doubt the organisers would deny Greenland entry.

Céline Dion once more, or Justin Bieber?
Please don’t make any more music =/
Brian Adams it is!
Céline please.
Send Faouzia please. She’s badass.
I know everyone in the Eurovision fandom keeps telling me that Morocco should participate again and have her as the representative, but nah, I think Canada is the better choice (I am Moroccan).
Our borders are sound, and we’re not at war.
We have a land border with Denmark and a Sea border with France.
Let’s go !
Was about to say that: Sea border wise you are closer to France than the British are.
(Fun fact: Do you know which country has the longest land border to France? …it’s Brazil)
But then we Europeans would have a border with the USA.
Not sure if I want that.
Perhaps a line comprised of the northernmost US states could form a separate country as a buffer zone.
“The Union of Somewhat Less Barbaric States of Northern America” or something
You mean they’d elect someone to say that the
EuropeanAtlantic Union should be a US state or else?
That would be so cool if I could visit Canada without any visa or other shit.
Most EU countries have visa-free entry into Canada IIRC. I know you have to submit an eta but those are cheap and quickly approved
Or better yet, visit Canada and every other EU country with just one visa, instead of several dozen for each. Yeah, not every EU country is part of Schengen, and there are non-EU countries that are, but I always thought this is cool.
My country does require a visa for EU entry despite being literally 14km away from one of its members, separated only by the Strait of Gibraltar, so I’m not really that lucky. But I least I wouldn’t have to go through the tedious visa application process all over again.

Finally an option that doesn’t involve “negotiating” with a dementia-ridden publicity whore. I’d vote YES!!!
Well, we have our fair share of “red states” in the EU unfortunately…
As Canada is a country roughly the size of Poland it would seem to be beneficial to join the EU (pop. 441m) with a balance of right- and left-wing views. Better than being economically and culturally tied to the death-cult in the US.
Well Canada, you know what that means…:

Canadian Dominion btw, it’s not like they got the letters of “Canada” jumbled up their official name is just weird.
I honestly always thought it was CanaDiaN
I would have loved to use CAN or CA instead, but that’s their international vehicle registration code and rules are rules… :)
Life imitates art, and that art is the board game Twilight Struggle.
(It’s a Cold War simulator, played on a world map, and Canada counts as Europe for game purposes.)
While we’re making crazy changes to the timeline, can I suggest one more? Let’s get Britain to finally depose the monarchy. With nowhere else to go, the House of Windsor flees to North America. We now refer to, “Charles, King of Canada.”
Spain too, please. He can go “rule” Nicaragua or something, idk
Canadians are totally on board for this
Maybe call it something other than the European Union in that case?
We can have colonies in North America again.
Alright Britain, calm down now
Sorry, I didn’t have my microscope with me.
Dominion of the Europeans and their former colonies? Just to annoy the unitedstatesians
Yeah, I would definitely appreciate it! I like the Canadians.
Edit: Cbviously Canadians want it too: https://feddit.org/post/7162395
So you are saying LTT merch without tarifs? Nice!
Just gotta get those undies with the Linus Sex Tips rim for all my work besties, and cheap! /s
Wait, so would this be in exchange for Greenland?
/S
