So…in the “if” column…with a population of about 41,000,000 (Canada as a 51st state), it would be slightly higher (close anyway) to California, and much higher population than Texas by about a NYC…so would the State of Canada get 2 Senators & about 54 members in the House of Representatives?
Think of how that would skew American Politics? With the exception of the current after a decade of Trudeau Stank, usually Canada is about 1/3 right-leaning (by our standards anyway) & 2/3rds left-leaning, generally anyway, so that would pretty much make the American political party called the Republicans extinct, wouldn’t it?
That would drag America away from the right in a New York Minute (or the next election & every one after that). I wonder if Trump has pictured that scenario yet?
Even if Canada was broken into 2 or 3 smaller states (call it Western Canada, Eastern Canada, & Central-ish Canada), they’d still add up to 54-56 Members in the House of Representatives, & 2-6 Senators…& most pretty much left of the current American administration.
Would that help balance out the number of stars on the American Flag (?) especially if three of them where Red Maple Leafs?
America would geographically double in size overnight, & forever (at least for the next several decades, call it at least a generation) be thrown way to the left of anything it’s been before now.
Yeah…the “United States of Canada!” I kind’a like the ring of that. Then we could rename the Gulf of Mexico as the “Gulf of Canada.” While we’re at it, we could rename Alaska to “North West Canada,” & Montana could then be renamed “South West Canada,” etc…
