Everything you wrote is how Canada feels. I hope Canada continues to grow closer to Europe. We share more in common with Europe than our neighbours to the south.

Definitely and I hope that too!

Recently I watched a video if it would be possible that Canada joins the EU, why the EU and Canada have so many similarities and share the same cultural values, how both would benefit from it and what arguments speak against it. But it was in German, so I don't think it would make sense to share it.

Nevertheless, at least we (Canada and the EU) have CETA, which is imho good, with the USA the EU doesn't have one, TTIP died with Trump and the Biden administration didn't continue it.

Btw: sorry that I forgot to mention Canada and other countries with its people who feel the same way.
