27. The Cascades already do that, a nice natural wall all the way down to North CA!

And if the Cascadia secession included much of CA, I'd be all for it. But I sure wouldn't want my daughter down in the Bay area to be stuck being just "Left Coast" for the rest of her days.

The original Cascadia was also BC and northern California...nowadays, I think it should go all the way and just include the entire West coast.

No but I would like a State of like minded people to leave... peace13 Jun 2016 #1
