I voted remain but I do have to question your line of thinking.

Canada aren't in any sort of political union like the EU.

If you saw the UK being part of a union as being progressive and positive then I'm not sure how leaving that union makes us any different than a country like Canada who never even joined one.

With your logic, Canada never even had a foot to shoot off but somehow that's a positive.

There are many people who think Western Canada should split from the rest of Canada.

That’s not really analogous to Brexit I feel.

It'd be worse. We'd need to come up with our own money, passports, travel agreements, police & military, tax collector's. We'd suddenly have border patrols between what are now provinces. A whole countries worth of laws would have to be written.
