If they come in as one state they'd only get two senators out of it.

I was thinking of allowing Canada to come in as two states. East Canada and West Canada. That way we only have to add two stars to our flag. The western provinces will combine to one "super-state" and will likely send conservatives to Congress (in spite of Vancouver). The eastern provinces (sans Quebec which I have no hope for) will for their own "super-state" and will likely lean liberal so the whole thing will be a wash politically.

Quebec will be isolated and surrounded by the US. Those Frenchies will sure have their panties in a twist - too bad. Next time they boo our national anthem in their scuzzy hockey rink, we'll just kick them (Montreal) out of the NHL and we won't have to worry about playing "O Canada" in our rinks anymore because there will only be American teams left.

Obviously upper Canada will remain territories as they are pretty much unpopulated.

This would make the United States the largest country (in area) in the world and we would have access to additional natural resources that are incalculable.

Not a bad deal in that context.
