"I would like to see canada fracture and the eastern and far western provinces join the US as States."

Here's one scenario.

Ontario remains as Canada.
The western provinces, which have more in common with their neighboring states to the south than with eastern Canada, join the US.
Quebec becomes French Canada and annexes provinces to her east. These are the natural markets for Quebec and the Atlantic provinces are such economic basket cases, no one else will touch them, neither can they survive independently.
