DEJA VU: New York Senator Suggests Northeastern States Join Canada

In a move reminiscent of Vermont’s Second Republic movement, New York State Senator Liz Krueger has suggested that several northeastern states, including New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont, could leave the union and join Canada as a new province.

“The idea of northeastern states joining Canada isn’t new,” said Daniel Miller, President of the Texas Nationalist Movement. “Dr. Thomas Naylor, founder of the Second Vermont Republic movement and former Duke University economics professor, proposed something similar twenty years ago. His vision included Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, and the Atlantic provinces of Canada forming a confederation that would be the North American equivalent of Denmark.”

Krueger, a Manhattan Democrat, floated the idea amid growing tensions between her state and the federal government. She also suggested New York could withhold federal taxes as leverage against federal policies she views as detrimental to New York’s interests.

“While Senator Krueger later claimed her secession comments were a joke, they highlight a growing reality,” Miller noted. “States across the political spectrum are questioning their relationship with a federal system that increasingly fails to serve their interests.”

The idea has sparked a multi-state discussion about state rights and the limits of federal authority.

“Whether it’s California threatening to withhold federal funds over immigration policy or New York suggesting they might join Canada, we’re seeing increasing challenges to federal supremacy from both sides of the political aisle,” Miller explained. “This reflects a fundamental truth we’ve long maintained – the federal system simply cannot accommodate the diverse needs and values of all fifty states.”

Naylor, who passed away in 2012, argued that small, human-scale democracies were both more just and more sustainable than large, centralized nations. His vision for northeastern independence emphasized local democracy, environmental sustainability, and economic solidarity.

“Dr. Naylor understood what we’ve been saying for years,” Miller said. “The right of self-determination isn’t tied to political ideology. It’s about people having the power to shape their own destiny through genuine self-government.”

While Krueger’s proposal may have been meant to make a point, it adds to growing evidence that states across America are reconsidering their relationship with the federal system. The TNM continues monitoring these developments as part of its mission to secure Texas independence through peaceful, legal means.

“Whether they’re joking or serious, when elected officials start talking about leaving the union, it signals deep problems with the federal system,” Miller concluded. “The solution isn’t joining Canada – it’s restoring the fundamental right of self-government to the people of each state.”
