Somehow they included Great Salt Lake. It is a “great” “lake” ;)
But they left out Great Slave Lake, and Great Bear Lake because they don’t know Canadian geography. ;)
Great Salt Lake
lol, i guess that must be why.
fwiw, regardless of its name or how great it is, it is not one of the Great Lakes 😂
Not to mention the high likelyhood of it pulling a Salton sea remake in the next couple decades.
Probably won’t even be a lake in 5 years
To be fair, the Great Salt Lake isn’t so great anymore.
Pretty sure a friend out that way mentioned “Lake” may be a generous title anymore.
Yeah, it’s like 1/3 the size of used to be, and there’s also toxic dust that’ll give a bunch of cancer when the Republicans refuse to do anything about it in like 5 years.
No state that includes Quebec can be considered great.
Also why is Utah highlighted.Screams at you in poutine.
Nor Ohio, we’re anything but great.
You got King’s Island and Cedar Point

Why is Quebec included? They don’t even want to be part of the country they are a part of
I think it has to do with the st. Lawrence. But yeah the queebs are weird.
What the Utah doin? I’m sorry but there is nothing great about the salt lake.
Okay, but the name
Then you seem to be missing a chunk…
Both of those are significantly greater than lake saltyboi
Ah, but those are in the northwest territories, not a state or province
Together we can kick out Nestlé and supply the world with affordable drinking water!
Trust me, you don’t want Indiana. You really don’t.
If it comes down to it, carve out the lakeside and discard the rest. Keep the dunes and miss the crazy racist Christo-fascists…
*coldest
Aw please don’t leave Atlantic Canada out, we’re good people I swear!
I’m curious. What even goes on up there? Seems like it’d be so cold all the time!
It’s super cold and we’re very poor but we’ve got big hearts and lots of fish :3
Very poor ? Sell the fishes ! Problem fixed.
We do and fishing has always been a huge part of our economy but things have changed. The money doesn’t stay here anymore.
Not even surprised. Politics and greed have been screwing over good people since… ever. Sadly, It’s the same thing everywhere.
Yup, it’s heartbreaking to see good hardworking people slowly lose everything like this.
They did sell the fish. Now the cod population has collapsed
Good luck getting Quebec to agree to that
Lol NYC is easily the only really valuable thing here. Chicago and Philly are way past their prime.
There’s also Toronto and Montreal.
Minneapolis is pretty nice, though not the economic powerhouse of new york
Chicago’s been making a comeback, despite what people may say about it.
Unironically it would be an immensely powerful nation. Good food production, good infrastructure, two of the three largest cities in the United States, many world class universities and research institutes, good mineral wealth as far as the industrialized northern hemisphere goes, lots of water, great commercial projection capacity, and a metric fuck ton of people. All without any of the dead weight states except Indiana. And all we’d have to do is deal with a bit of people who speak French poorly and a province that’s far more liberal than its insane government (ON, but swap province for state and that describes OH too)
It’d also be an absolute powerhouse of workers rights
Someone gets it 🥹
Why are you name dropping Indiana? Indiana ranked 20th in terms of state GDP, and has a higher GDP than both Minnesota and Wisconsin, as well as higher growth. I agree that the mid west would be a power house, but I don’t understand why Indiana is a dead weight state.
Because I’m an Ohioan who likes Michigan and I have to bully a neighbor. Also because the only place I’ve been to in Indiana since I was a teenager was Fort Wayne and you know what if you decide Ohio is worthless because you keep having to visit family in Dayton fair.
Also because it feels like punching down to mock their government’s decision to bring back AIDS. But I will stand in solidarity with Gary alongside Cleveland, Chicago, and Detroit as the great hellholes of the Great Lakes that actually aren’t even that bad anymore.
Utah, WTF?
No.You gotta hope Robert Evans doesn’t get access to those nukes tho…
