In a world increasingly divided by borders, walls, and bureaucratic absurdities, northernmexicans.com was born from a single, pointed idea:
What if Mexico and Canada had more in common than the United States would like to admit?
🇨🇦 + 🇲🇽 > 🇺🇸?
Northern Mexicans is a satirical reframing of cultural, political, and geographic narratives that have long dominated North American identity. It challenges the assumptions of nationalism, immigration policy, and racial categorization by blurring the lines—literally and figuratively—between the two nations most often defined by their proximity to the U.S. border.
The Premise
What happens when Canadians are treated like Mexicans?
What happens when Mexicans speak with the privilege of a Canadian accent?
What happens when the absurdities of U.S. policy are held up like a mirror across both borders?
That’s where the satire begins.
Solidarity Is a Weapon
The concept of border solidarity is often narrowly defined. But in the 21st century, solidarity between the North and the South of North America is more important than ever:
Climate migration is already impacting Mexico and will inevitably push north—yet Canada’s underpopulated and climate-tempered landscape could be part of the solution.
Authoritarian drift in the U.S. poses shared risks to press freedom, civil rights, and immigration reform across the entire continent.
Cultural exports and soft power from both Mexico and Canada are reshaping global views of what it means to be North American—and it doesn’t always mean being American.
NorthernMexicans.com celebrates that tension. We amplify it. We meme it. We wear it on T-shirts. We play it out in the card games, podcasts, and comics we’re building.

This is not just about pointing fingers at policy—it’s about laughing through it, disrupting it, and ultimately questioning it.
Why Satire? Why Now?
Satire disarms.
It gets past defenses.
It lets us say the quiet part loud—because the loud part has stopped making sense.
When walls get taller and speech gets policed, jokes become weapons. And laughter? Laughter becomes a passport.
At NorthernMexicans.com, we intend to cross borders by any creative means necessary.

Because in the end, we are all Northern Mexicans now.e. But… maybe?
