Wow, this is actually a thing.  I'm assuming the sale would include everything in the state?  Canada would have to be tickled pink at the exchange of our sizable nuclear arsenal...

Fox should see if they are interested in California instead.

Anytime I travel out of the state and get carded or someone asks where I'm from I tell them how bad it sucks here. A few years ago I had a cashier with purple hair in central california look at my ID and say "man I bet you're glad to be out of there, must be a terrible place to live" I replied "yeah it's terrible. Bitter cold from September to May and in the summer time it's full of people like you."

Bear in mind this isn't a petition started by Fox.  It's merely them reporting on a petition on Change.org.

Right. There was also a write up on it in the Great Falls Tribune last week. Don't quote me but I believe it was about Wednesday.

There's a trillion dollar idea. They wanna secede anyway. Let 'em go I say. Trouble is Canada's too smart to allow all those bone-heads into their country.

Montanans, please don't go! You folks are too awesome to leave the US. Gotta be able to go somewhere to stay on an even keel OR form your own country. I'd do dual citizenship  ;)2

Montana is terrible. It is winter for 8 months out of the year. The rest of the year everything is on fire. All the while you are fighting off grizzly bears, mountain lions, and wolves. Not worth visiting let alone moving there. And any pretty pictures you see are photoshopped as a ploy to bring in money from tourism because there is nothing worth a dime. Total shame, go tell your friends.

It doesn't sound that appealing to most people I talk to, but going out onto a frozen lake and staring into a hole for the day is my favorite thing to do.

I think that Washington state should be included with a California deal, but the southern Washington state line would have to be adjusted to include Portland OR with it.

I think they can have all of Oregon and Washington in that deal. I used to live in Oregon when I was going to University. Oregon and Washington, even their eastern rural sides are so left wing it is ridiculous. Their east sides don't see themselves as left wing because they are comparing themselves to places like Portland and Seattle but even their most conservative eastern areas are FAR left of most of Montana.

I'd happily call myself Canadian.  Not itching to leave the US, but if MT gets sold I'd be perfectly happy wearing a beaver skin hat.

sounds to me like you should get the hell out of montana. If you dont like anything it has to offer then get out. You must be from California.
