] Date Posted: 17:36:48 12/22/04 Wed In reply to: Jim (Canada) 's message, "Canada and EU impose sanctions on the US" on 15:49:43 12/22/04 Wed I seem to remember that there was talk of Canada wanting to join the EU from certain (perhaps lunatic) quarters. However, it has just given me an idea. Canada, Australia and New Zealand should apply to join the EU. Given that many of the ex-Soviet states have been, or will be admitted, together with the fact that they are even entertaining the notion of Turkey joining, this should not be a problem. After that, we then conspire to kick out all the non-English speaking countries! Mission Accomplished... [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |

Date Posted: 23:21:39 12/22/04 Wed Turkey..next to the EU Eastern Bloc.. next to the EU Australia...Thousands of miles away Canada..Thousands of miles away New Zealand..Thousands of miles away Of course this would be bloody brilliant but it won't happen the Franco-German alliance wouldn't allow it. Could u see them tolerating an influx on English speaking nations. Canada may be given association status at most I feel. The French and German public seem to have deep problems with allowing Turkey to join which is after all the EUs neighbour! [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |

Date Posted: 12:42:35 12/23/04 Thu Cyprus and Malta are two Commonwealth nations which are now EU members. The fact that Canada is working closer with the EU is good while the UK is still part of the EU. It will help to restore and build up some of the economic ties with the UK, which I am sure would be maintained when the UK leaves the EU. It also shows that Canada is interested in more than just North America. This is only a baby step - but it is in the right direction and it does help us. I also agree that France and Germany may not want Canada in the EU. However, that being said, France is keen to strengthen ties with Quebec. [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |
