The #Guardian writer summarily dismisses any #Canadian membership in the #EU as "...fails the geographical test" i.e. adjacency or contiguous connection, I assume. But he's wrong: a) Cyprus and Malta are members, with no direct geographical connection b) Canada actually HAS a direct connection: it shares #HansIsland with #Denmark https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Island) So we HAVE a contiguous connection. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/sep/17/opening-the-eu-door-for-canada-is-a-harmless-gesture-but-it-wont-fix-europes-security-crisis?CMP=GTUK_email
