Cascadia Independence Movement
The Cascadia Independence Movement advocates for the secession of the Pacific Northwest from the United States and Canada to form a new country called Cascadia. This region typically includes parts of British Columbia, Washington, Oregon, and Northern California. Proponents seek to promote environmental sustainability, cultural identity, and social justice. The movement is part of broader discussions about regional identity and governance, reflecting a desire for local control over political and environmental issues. While it has gained some support, it remains largely a grassroots initiative without mainstream political backing.
