 * Campaigns: Far-right candidate Charles Engels gave a speech on January 11th, 2061 on Washington's intention to unify with Oregon into Cascadia. Engels said that as a president he would stop this aggresive policy, finding it unacceptable that Columbia wouldn't take part in the creation of Cascadia. He also stated that 'a nation should not ally with a state filled with arrogance'. 'The current Washingtonian military presence near our rightful soil is an act of agression, if not worse than that'. Engels also said that he is worried about Alberta's expansion. Meanwhile, isolationist candidate Angelina Maas says that she is highly worried by 'mr. Engels' fascist words'.
