    As a Canadian I’d be in favour of starting with joining the Schengen zone. A currency union might be a hard sell as our economy benefits from being able to float the dollar for exports, but it would probably still be a net benefit once trade with the rest of the EU improved and regulations got normalized.

    Transitioning should start with more and tighter trade links. Working toward harmonizing rules and dropping tariffs. There’d be a lot of sticking points.

    At one point I rebuilt a server by fully abandoning the package database and reinstalling everything as overwrites. Converted a slackware install into a Debian install in situ by cannibalizing it from the inside out. Pretty proud of that one, even 20 years later.
