Might be some geographical issues (perhaps of the ocean variety) with this proposal
Well, Ireland is separated from the rest of the continent by ocean. Canada is just a slightly bigger island, slightly further away...
There is French territory just off the coast of Newfoundland too (see Saint Pierre and Miquelon), also Denmark is right next door because of Greenland. So while still pretty far fetched, there is some precedent for European territory in North America.
Canada shares a land border with Greenland on Hans Island.
The Celtic Sea is not an ocean.
By that logic then Vancouver Island isn't an island because the Juan de Fuca is a strait not an ocean
They didn't say Ireland wasn't an island because of it... But, for the record, Canada isn't an island anyway so...
¯\_(ツ)_/¯I wasn't awake when I wrote that but I still think they meant to imply it doesn't make it an island. Poor reader here I guess.
Maybe canada can be the first member of a post-European EU. I guess we'll need a new name.
Earth United!
Sounds like a football club that has no one to play against.
Cyprus is already the first non-European EU member.
Earthed Union the EU.
White supremacist imperialist conglomerate (non-US version)?
Once again, we are forced to raise the lingering question: Are Italians White?
new caledonia and french guiana are laughing it up from the southern hemisphere
