Dear President,
I am a former elected representative from Ontario Canada and am keenly interested in knowing and learning more regarding your proposal of annexing Canada to become the 51st State.
As you can appreciate, your proposal has caused a significant stir and much commentary from the Canadian political establishment. It has also created some confusion and a stirring of national sentiment which has been absent for many decades.
Before either rejecting or supporting your proposal for annexing Canada far more details are required in order to evaluate the merits.
I believe your proposal would have great appeal to the majority of Canadians if the following were known and enunciated;
1. Not the 51st state, but at a minimum each existing Canadian province be granted statehood. Making at a minimum sixty (60) states. It would also be valuable to sub-divide each of the following provinces, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and BC into smaller states. To create 65 states
2. The 3 Canadian territories are also recognized as Territorial governments under the annexation proposals.
3. Each of the new states (former provinces) be required to have a Bi-cameral legislature and elect 2 senators to the USA congress.
4. The Current congressional districts of approximately 750,000 be retained for the new Canadian states. The new states with less than this population would still have one congressional district. This would create approximately 55 new congressional districts.
5. Each province be admitted to the Union through a referendum.
6. The establishment of a Bilateral commission with equal representation from each nation to create a report with recommendations on finalizing the terms of Union.
Canada has a rich and proud heritage and culture that remains intact even though it has been undermined for many decades by our political establishment. Any annexation proposal ought to recognize this unique and distinct culture and also seek to mitigate further undermining or diminishment of the Canadian identity.
I trust the above is helpful and I look forward to further public discourse on this important and unprecedented proposal.
.
Respectfully

Trump is going to stop buying oil from Canada and, instead, buy it from the Russians. He’ll make this part of the deal to stop the Russian Special Military Operation, while also removing sanctions on them. We are impotent to the oncoming tsunami of economic devastation. We owe the US for their decades of military spending, and we deserve the fallout. We spent more on immigration than military; we gave the Chinese access to the Arctic; we reneged on our duties under international treaties. Time is up
Beautiful in its simplicity dc! Yes I heard Dave Bjorkman of the pcc party party of the Canadian constitutionalist speak the very same senario trump doesn’t do or say anything without backing it up ! The art of the deal make an offer so outrageous then resort back to what you really wanted win win
Good catch Garth – it was Dave who I heard explain it as well. His videos on FB are definitely worth checking out; I’ve yet to find a flaw in his arguments
