I think most Oregonians have heard of it - there are occasional news stories and the Greater Idaho backers run social media advertisements - but it's not gaining traction. The State of Jefferson movement is similar - it has been talked about for years but hasn't gone anywhere.

Will the state of Idaho would have to come up with billions of dollars to purchase all the land so I don't think it's going to happen.

Before that happens, Alberta will become our 51st state. Yeah, not likely!

All, the Escape Forum is non-political. Please take this type of discussion elsewhere.

Who's going camping?
