Oh yes....here’s a link...

As regards the flag:

7. Wouldn’t a new flag be more appropriate?

Perhaps. Peoples’ well being, freedom and opportunity are far more important than the symbol of their nation. However, to some this reaches the heart of the issue. Humans are not always the most logical creatures, and symbolism does have some importance. Whatever the flag, the Union would have to respect the fact that the United States, as it exists today, is almost nine times larger in population and over eleven times larger economic terms. To imagine this another way, if California, a state which has roughly the same population as Canada, even larger economy and arguably more dissimilar culture, had waited an extra 150 years to join the US, would we now be proposing a new flag? The flag of the United States of America was created in the late 1700s at the birth of the nation, while the present-day Canadian flag was created in the 1960s. Yet, if the majority of North Americans saw fit to change it, there is no reason why that could not occur.

United North America is a non-profit organization dedicated to the democratic unification of Canada and the United States of America into one nation, under the framework of the United States Constitution.

I interpret, "under the framework of the United States Constitution," to be a statement that the U. S Constitution would be rewritten.

Say adios and adieu to the 2nd Amendment.
