So some folks wanted a new silly struggle session that can demonstrate for all new arrivals and visitors the sort of silly shit we debate. So I ask you Hexbears: What is the "midwest"?

    No. Midwest is a US thing, I think the Canadian analog would be the Prairies

      The Canadian and American prairies run smoothly into eachother. Way before borders used to be a real thing people would move freely, Metis homeland includes both sides. Before the Metis, Niitsapi (blackfoot confederacy) was on either side and even now Kinai FN still is, I think the Sioux were too.
