How many representatives do they get? They have about a million more people than California. Do all Canadian citizens automatically become US citizens? Do they all automatically lose their health care? Would we have to take Toronto as part of this deal, or could they just stay their own thing? Do the border guards get laid off, or just transferred south? Do you think it would make the Quebec separatists start to get actually serious? Would the RCMP have to change to the CMP? Wouldn't it be better for the USA to join Canada?

Hmm strongly disagree. Puerto Rico should be a state: in 2022 the federal taxes paid by the residents of Puerto Rico to the US added up to $4.8 billion dollars.Taxation without representation is very un-American.

How about they're like Puerto Rico right until they win that first hockey cup versus Americans?

I don't know about hokey but didn't the Canadians just win the world hokey finals against the Americans?
