Population wise it’s like adding another California

Hypothetically, if canada becomes a state, would they flip our house of representatives blue? I guess more likely they’ll become like puerto rico or guam or something.

But I thought we were pretending to care about states, not individual voters.

They’d annex the land, and then deport all the Canadian foreigners that illegally immigrated in the US.

I don’t think they are getting statehood right away

This is what you need to keep foremost in your mind. There is no conceivable reality in which the US conquers (yes conquers, they can call it annexation all they want but at the end of the day Trump wants a conquest to his name) Canada and gives any semblance of voting or personal rights to Canadians. Hell, even if Canada was somehow persuaded into voluntarily joining the US, this regime would never, ever honour any kind of arrangement that gave Canadians a fair deal. They are fascist bullies, as close to actual evil as we’ve seen in North America in a very long time, and they have no interest in any sort of fair bargain.
