Forget LETO, consider Pacifica
Keeping with my theme of brevity I will keep this short and concise.
LETO is a burden on the Canadian budget and offers us next to nothing to expand our international sphere. Why should we be getting tied up in Europe and parts of East Asia? This is not conducive to our success as a nation. We have limited influence and questionable authority. LETO IS A LET DOWN Their closest allies are leaving (i.e France) due to in-fighting and the alliance is shambles. Let’s face it folks, we have no power here. This is an alliance of broken words and broken promises.
Pacifica offers us a strong geopolitical ally in our very own hemisphere. It allows us stability and allows us to take a stronger leadership role. Let’s face it; our connections with the Americans are some of the strongest. We know the Americans, we work with the Americans, and the Americans alone offer us much more than LETO does. In fact Asgard is PRO-PACIFICA! Which offer us even more opportunities and capabilities! Our interests as Canadians are much more in line with Pacifica than they are in LETO.
Let’s rethink this alliance, and make Canada a powerful force!
I say Pacifica is the best option
Long Live Canada!

Forget LETO, consider Pacifica
Referendum maybe?
That's what Quebec said years ago... didn't happen. Not gonna happen 😛
how long have you been here?
Home is where the heart is! As an inspiring congressman, it is imperative for the sake of transparency for the public to be aware of my positions. I consider this article part of my goal of transparency. At the end of the day, I love the people in Canada and I contend it is one of the best communities in this game. This is my home.
For once, I agree with LIGHTS *showers*
Okay, back. I don't know why anyone - Pacifica or Canadian - should take an eUSA reject seriously. You're hardly the spokesman for a country that laughed you out, Mr. Bishop, and your propaganda can only serve to bolster the hopes of ignorant eCanadians.
Let me make myself clear. Canada should know its place in the worl😛 in eRepublik you are at the mercy of the eUS, not its equal. You exist because the USA does not want to waste its time in a prolonged conflict with a nation with more than a dozen regions.
Yes we had a TW. This does not mean friendship.
As hilarious as it would be to see you under the thumb of the Pacifica hegemony, you will never - repeat - never be on equal enough footing with Pacifica nations to be able to deal justly. Leaving the protective bubble of Serbia will only worsen your chances abroad. You may have forgotten this, but you cannot maintain a relationship with both Serbia and USA...and CoI may have a problem severing ties with its biggest source of income.
Stay at the kiddie table, Canada. Nobody else wants you.
Hahaha poor Brucie. Finally gets his stars and stripes and thinks he's one of the cool kids now. Picking fights with Ajay, trash-talk against eCanada that sounds like it was written six months ago... ah, poor boy.
I don't know how anyone - Pacifica or Canadian - could take an ex-Brucie seriously.
Obviously, this article is pure rubbish, but your precious response to it makes me all nostalgic.
Cool kids? I always was a cool kid, I'm just sitting at a better table now. Just as cool as I was before. I'll always be around, Xander. So there's no need for nostalgia.
Notice how you don't disagree with any of my points? That's because you know I'm right. You're just mad I left you behind, my little cuddle bear.
"At the mercy of the eUSA" - Disagree.
"Not its equal" - Agree. We are its better.
"you will never - repeat - never be on equal enough footing with Pacifica nations" - Why would we wish to sink to such a level?
"you cannot maintain a relationship with both Serbia and USA." - Agree. We do not want to. HAIL SERBIA!
"Stay at the kiddie table, Canada. Nobody else wants you." - Hahahahahahahahahaha
"I always was a cool kid" - DISAGREE.
" I'm just sitting at a better table now" - Disagree.
"I'll always be around" Agree. Like herpes.
"That's because you know I'm right" - Disagree.
"I left you behind" - Disagree. We discarded you because you turned out to be less than useless.
" my little cuddle bear" - DISAGREE.
eUSA has made you dumber, somehow. I had not believed it possible.
I'll make it simple. Alliance with the eUS is an absolute non-starter.
This sort of attitude is the same thing that got the USA wiped.... We will never ally with "so and so" because we are suppose to be bitter enemies they told me... Yes this irrational reason dominated the political mind set for a while, sadly it seems to be in parts of Canada now.
You are free to think what you wish, but if you were to hypothetically eat your words how would you like them? Sauteed, broiled, grilled, baked or smoked. I mean this politely, you should be open to change.
The eUS started the last war. They made it their national goal to destroy the community. The provocation for that was that the eUS had rejected us from alliance membership, essentially forcing us to the other side. So, no. I will not be eating my words. Actions have consequences, and beavers have much longer memories than turkeys do.
lol
Just 5 - 6 months ago, the US hated us, and had us wiped. Even if we are cordial now, one can hardly say " our connections with the Americans are some of the strongest".
I would say we have strong ties with individual Americans, but not their government. Many Americans have been good to us even when their government considered us the enemy.
Name a few
I can't just name a few and leave out others, but I would say our biggest supporters are probably Gnilraps and Pfeiffer.
Jude is just giving you a hard time silly.
Well we're still friends, at least? Right, Dennis?
Bruce, you're still my favorite ex Canadian. o/
And you're my favourite ex-American.
Hold me.
You spelled favorite wrong. Learn to America, Bruce.
Says the eCanadian who forgot the "u".... speak the Queen's English, man.
I may be a proud and horny eAmerican now, but my RL Canadiana will never die. I love my RL country more than you love yours, guaranteed. Remember: RL country 😕= eCountry, and also remember: armour, favour, colour, zed, eh?
So if you look at the connections with the top people in Canada to that of eUsa you see similarities. Many of the top people in Canada are friends with people like Oblige, Wildowl, judeconnors and the like. The Americans did a trolling war on us 6 months back but that does not reflect those friendships. Rather rouge leadership of the time. Let's not forget the latest round of training wars we had with the eUSA either. We are friends, in hearts and in minds.
Rouge is my favourite type of leadership. It's very slimming.
People who are friends with those people should not be in leadership at any level. Just sayin.
Lrn2Rogue.
eAmerica views eCanada as stubborn squatters preventing them from achieving their manifest destiny. And you were not an "us" when they had us wiped. You were a "them."
There is no friendship.
Oh, I really hate to be the Grammar Nazi at this particular pow-wow, but Rouge is French for Red. The word you're looking for is Rogue. Notice the u after the g rather than before.

HAIL ATLAS.
I do not know if Pacifica requires any membership dues but I would assume they would. This is pretty typical because people expect COs and tank give away on important battles.
You don't want to fight in Europe or East Asia? I suppose I could insult the US and see if we could get wiped again. What's your plan for playing war? Maybe we should NE Russia?
"We have limited influence and questionable authority."
What is your source? Could we have a link? Since Persian Punisher and Andre3567 have been running things all my concerns have been addressed and Bryan Alexander has been elected LETO Govenor. LETO does not kiss our ass but neither do we kiss their's.
"Their closest allies are leaving (i.e France) due to in-fighting and the alliance is shambles."
Have you actually read what France's MoFA said in their recent article? There is no mention of "in-fighting" or that the "alliance is shambles". What is does mention is that They wanted to NAP with Poland to have some region. There was some disagreement about how many regions. Obviously communication failed in both directions. Also France was disturbed because other battles have been put in priority ahead of theirs. These are legitimate concerns/reasons but are not what you are proposing, we need citations to understand what you are talking about.
What "power" are we supposed to have? We are the member of an alliance, not the leader of something. I need citations for the "broken words" and "broken promises". We cannot properly discuss this unless I know what they are. If words or promises were broken I cannot get them mended unless I know what they are.
Agree, Pacifica would be strong geo-political ally. Disagree that "It allows us stability and allows us to take a stronger leadership role." We would be a "Partner" only. Founding partners have authority.

If you wish to help fine but this is propaganda meant to stir up people, not to inform.
Agreed sir. LETO and ATLAS are our current and best options.
Let's join EDEN!!!
Sir, I must disagree: PEACE at home, PEACE in the world.
Brings me back to my good ol' GC days! Damnit bruce, why'd you have to go all nostalgia on me 🙁
nah SOL
FIST. Accept no substitutes.
This guy makes sense.
Jude you troll so hard. But we love you
No. I was being legit, for a change.
Sometimes people need to do what is right and best for them.
Does everyone underestimate Great Divine Russia?
Pacifica IS Great Divine Russia. Believe their founder.
Pacifica and the USA sucks. The best alliance was the one that was propposed with France and Portugal.
ATLAS is simply a treaty, not an alliance.
What's the difference?
Steps up a ladder.
I believe the USA lacks the stability to be trusted as a long term ally of Canada. You never know when you'll be her friend or when she'll decide to wipe you. If Aurora were accepting new members, I would say join them. In my experience in India, Bulgaria and the Republic of Macedonia have been honorable allies.
Join Pacifica! Hell, we can even be friends again!
Although I don't really agree with you, I still think it's a good article 🙂 Therefore, I shall vote it up anyways. Nothing wrong with healthy debate lol
If we were to change alliances, I'd be more inclined to push ATLAS from treaty, to full blown alliance than to join Russia+2.
We could always rejoin Asgard?? XD
