Why are the turks and caicos not part of Canada?


i believe they have been asking to be a part of canada for years but it has never gone through?

do your homework before you answer que, i wouldnt ask a question that doesn't make sense. It has been in serious discussion for many years and keeps being put on the back burner and i wanted to know why

The Province of Nova Scotia has offered the Turks & Caicos to join their province if they want to seek a political union with Canada. The Turks & Caicos are British, however Canadians would like to have a province in the tropics as many are snowbirds who spend their winters in U.S. or the Caribbean and their summers in Canada.

stupid turks and caicos are part of the carriben islands why would be be link to canda

Luis gave you the right answer.

I do believe the people of Turks and Caicos want to stay independent and not part of Canada. JMHO

Quite a few Americans have purchased second homes there or moved there. The dollar is the currency, right now.

Such a merger inevitably would soon be fraught with problems: massive economic aid to these luckless islands, issues around security and passports and organized crime, economic development, you name it.

Whatever Canada did, no matter how well-intentioned, it would be accused of racism.

This Canadian is darned glad that nothing came of this looney project
