Approved!
No thanks. We can’t afford it.
UN diplomats owe the city of New York a total of approximately $16,000,000 in unpaid parking tickets.
Sure, after a good long look into which of the nations currently united are united under a flag of terrorism. Reform then let’s talk.
The last thing we should want is this disgusting and corrupt organization.
Well, if we can afford it. I approve.
We already have ICAO head office in Montreal.
No thanks
Who’s paying for it lol. Just look at how FIFA is ripping off Toronto
If approved today, it will take our government agencies 5 decades to make it operational. Outsource to Chinese and they will get it ready in 2 years.
Edit: typo
As a democratic institution, the General Assembly does a great job of representing the values of its constituent governments
Canada should also make a bid to create a new alliance of nations.
#NATO^^^2
The No Assholes Treaty Organization. We could ask a sizeable chunk of current NATO countries, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and any other countries that aren’t currently assholes. This treaty would have a clause in it though, that should you become an asshole, that immediately eliminates your membership in the alliance, and a majority vote of 66% is enough to declare you an asshole and you’re out.
It could be like the Olympics but it lasts forever.
Lmfao. No.
No thanks.
We can barely even keep this country together. No point trying to help the planet.
As an American, I am ok with the UN HQ being moved to Canada permanently. Better off in y’all’s hands anyway.
The UN is a benevolent extension of the US’s soft power in the post world war 2 environment.
Unfortunately it isn’t that effective anymore as the world spirals towards another global conflict.
In Winnipeg.
With what possible money. You also don’t have much of a military strenght or relevant in world finances.
The UN should just have one HQ, Geneva. Leave NYC all together
LOL
Anyway
As a European, i’d support it
A UN HQ in Montréal would be nice, especially since the city is itself very bilingual
Hmmm…it’s not really a bad idea, exactly. The thing is, if we were to do it, we shouldn’t put it in Toronto or Montreal or even Vancouver. Put it in an economically lower tier city as a kind of make-work, economic boost.
Cities like Edmonton, Winnipeg, Hamilton…doing well enough but could use the shot in the arm.
No, never.
Only if it’s in Churchill.
