It’s a fully accurate map actually. Every time one of these gets made I immediately fall into the ocean and have to help rebuild my country again from the ground up. It’s not something many people talk about but it’s a real challenge in the Canadian way of life.
Internet leftists heavily subscribe to the idea of spheres of influence. Canada (and Western Europe) fall into the US sphere. What the citizens of those countries think or want is of no importance.
This also explains the .ml’s support for Russia over Ukraine. In their worldview, Ukraine belongs solely to Russia, and Ukrainians resistance to that can only be explained by actions of the CIA, since Ukrainian citizens can have no agency of their own.
What is it with so many maps drawn by Americans pretending Canada doesn’t exist?
It’s a political cartoon not a map.

I’ve never seen such a reductionist view presented as so enlightened.
“Internet leftists heavily subscribe” is just a tad of an overgeneralization mate
Of course you’re absolutely right. I was hoping to avoid calling out the .ml denizens specifically. But here we are.
States function according to their strategic interests and trade relations, not as pot luck dinners.
