We will never be the 51st state! It’s time for Canada to stop relying on the USA.

The benefits of Canada joining the European Union (EU) could be profound, leading to increased trade, stronger diplomatic relations and shared cultural understanding. Canada's economic system, respect for human rights, and stable democracy make it a strong potential player within the context of the EU. Connecting these powerful entities can help in building a stronger, more inclusive global system where mutual cooperation and collective effort can help deal with major global issues more effectively.

A 2017 survey showed that 76% of Canadians had a positive view of the EU, marking a strong base of public support for deepening ties (Eurobarometer Survey). However, this petition aims to take this relationship a step further.

Joining the EU would require careful consideration and negotiation, but a formal alliance could usher in significant benefits for Canadians and Europeans alike. We encourage the Canadian government to start an open dialogue considering EU membership possibilities and to facilitate public discussions to gauge the country's interest in such a significant move.

Join us in signing this petition to champion an open discussion about the prospect of Canadian membership in the European Union.
