The NAU, should it ever arrive, will contain either Quebec, or the rest of Canada, but not both.

I'm pretty sure that if anyone got up the energy to start up a Quebec ejection campaign, the Quebecois would finally get that sovereignty they've been whining about for years, although not on the terms they delude themselves into believing they'll get.

No, my point was based on the fact that they're not.

James, You think the Flemish and the Walloons are different RACES? Embarrassing.

There's obviously more to it, whatever it is that's forcing Belgium apart, than that it's an unideal "public goods-providing jurisdiction."

Will, that people behave as though race were real is some of the best evidence that it is.

Cosmopolitan identity is not all the better if it's fictional and valorizes the stateless person above the loyal citizen. Malicious hatred against American success would be often the motivation for wishing a NAU on us. Before the 'age of nationalism' a failed model of loyalty to royal families with enclaves and exclaves, began to die of its weak loyalties, but none of these was as weak in terms of commanding loyalty as the EU the UN or the other candidates. Co-prosperity spheres, UAR's, federations of the x-esias and y-islands? Humanity has no attributes of sovereignty, but a real nation does, and it commands loyalty when foreigners cross our borders in such a way as to bring increase of aggression, at the very least. Deregulate Islamic immigration, if you want to be their Dhimmi, and hopelessly second-class.
