23. Of course Canada wouldn't want.

Canada would effectively cease to exist - the population of California alone is about the same as Canada. I'm also guessing the number of MAGAts alone in the joining states would be at least Canada's population.

Quebec would additionally shit a brick as its language & culture would be swamped.

As well, I expect Russia and China would approve as the US as a "super power" would be greatly diminished.

It is a fantasy that will never happen, Infinitely better for Democrats for stay in the US and fight.
