Oh, I would love a State of Alberta, plus states of Saskatchewan, Manitoba and British Columbia (if it changed its name) while we're at it. It seems to me like we'd get 8 new GOP Senators from Canada's Western Provinces. And yes, the oil sands would be quite a sweetener. : )

Folks tend to forget that outside of Vancouver, BC is very conservative. When I was in Kelowna, BC back in October, there were two pro-life billboards on the highway and I saw several people with pro-life stickers and anti-registration (firearm) bumper stickers as well.

Sure, they're a little uptight and dull, but the same can be said of certain states in this country that shall remain nameless...
