Canada has a population of 40 million, greater than California’s 38 million.

If it came in as a single state it would have at least the 52 US Reps and 2 Senators that California has and a great number of them would vote Democrat, especially if Canada was coerced to join the Union. This would mean Democrat control of Congress, probably for a long time.

Maybe this is not such a bad idea.
