Even better would be for each Canadian province to become a state, bringing sanity to the US Senate and perhaps restoring the US to decency and the rule of law.
But I don’t see why Canadians would be interested in hitching their wagon to a rapidly failing country that’s antagonizing them and their allies. Why get in bed with crazy when they’re doing just fine as is?
When the US annexes or gains new territory it generally doesn't give them federal representation for a while.
Alaska was acquired in 1884, but didn't get "statehood" until 1959. Hawaii was annexed in 1900, but didn't get "statehood" until 1959. Puerto Rico was acquired in 1898, but still doesn't have "statehood."
If Canada is annexed by the US there is a good chance I will be dead of old age before it gets a vote in US elections.
