In the furthering of americanada propaganda, Theorist Snyder has created the official legislation proposing the creation of the hypothetical nation.  This will be unveiled within the next few weeks, possibly on March 31st, 2001, in the Final Student Congress of the Youngstown district.  Stay tuned to see what response is garnered from the resolution:

UPDATE!!!!!!:  The debut of the Resolution concerning americanada was bittersweet.  In 2 of the 3 houses and the Senate, americanada was defeated by a decided margin. HOWEVER, in my House, House 3, with the help of Richard Diaz, americanada was passed with flying colors.  People were intrigued by the idea of combining Canada and the USA, and, despite a few initial questions, they all voted for americanada.  It was a great victory for americanada.  

A Resolution concerning americanada

(the merging of America and Canada)

Whereas the merger between America and Canada would create a world super power and greatly benefit both countries,

Whereas the merger would create the largest geographical country in the world – surpassing Russia - with over 7,528,886 square miles in land mass and,

  Whereas this extra land mass would allow for increased immigration, especially from Mexico,

  Whereas the merger would provide Canada with great political, economical, and military advancements,

  Whereas the vast Canadian Shield, with its abundance of mineral deposits, would provide Americans with an awesome supply of natural resources as well as an economic windfall in the mining of these resources,

  Whereas almost one-half of Canada's land area is populated with coniferous forests that could be managed into a wealthy renewable resource,

Whereas a cultural rift has been created between Canadians and Americans by bigoted movies such as Canadian Bacon and South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, a dichotomy which, if not bridged by americanada, could eventually escalate in to a full scaled war,

  Whereas Alaska, previously isolated from the American mainland, would be come connected with the rest of the country,

  Whereas americanada would establish the world power in international ice hockey,

  Whereas americanada would provide America with timeless Canadian cultural items such as really good beer, lacrosse, and the ever-beloved Mounties ,

  Whereas americanada would save millions of dollars spent annually patrolling the Can-American border,

  Whereas Washington D.C. would become an official americanadian entity [i.e. state/ providence] thus ending its disgraceful era of “taxation without representation,”

  Whereas in the future America’s power may be threatened by the political alliances of the European Union, [EU] and,

  Whereas americanada would ensure the power of Americans and Canadians alike in the future,

  Whereas under americanada, capital letters would be abolished thus eliminating the need to press the annoying shift key while typing proper nouns, and

  Whereas americanada is really cool to say, and

  Whereas simply put: americanada - 'tis the future, eh?!,

  Be it resolved that the countries of Canada and the United States of America merge to form americanada.
