We're bound by a legal order. Who can and cannot join is spelled out clearly in our πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί Treaties. tldr: only "European states" can join. But that's not what's interesting to me. I'm fascinated why EU citizens would *want* that. What is it about our Union that's so casually sure, come on in for countries on other continents (tho not for others on our own--in general, not about you).

But I personally wouldn't mind that, as far as I'm concerned Canada would be welcome to join.

Donegal in Ireland is maybe closer to Newfoundland than to Greece.

Check a globe. Canada isn't as far away as it looks. Greenland used to be in the EU and Iceland might join.
Vikings probably visited.

And especially not get involved in other people's wars.
FTR many Canadians, including of course FN people, are not of European ascent.
