Just a random thought I had during a discussion with my family. Obviously we don't want Eastern Canada and all the liberal frenchies. But Is there a possibility of annexing say, Alberta and everything north/west of it? From what I've heard, outside of Victoria, everything in that area is pretty based and conservative and actually has a movement going for independence/annexation anyway.
Assuming this happened we could just use it as an excuse to redraw Washington and Oregon and combine Portland/Western Washington/Victoria into a single state and let the rest of Oregon/Washington join what used to be British Columbia. So as to not rustle any jimmies, we could probably combine Alberta with Idaho, and Yukon/Northwest Territories with Alaska. Beyond that it would give us a clear drive to Alaska and allow us to expand our road and rail network all the way to Alaska, thus making drilling/fracking up there, in the Yukon, and in Alberta more feasible. Plus the US has more oil friendly laws anyway, so I'm sure the "Texas of the North" would love to take advantage of that. This would also help us to achieve complete energy independence since Canada, and Alberta specifically, has the third largest oil reserves of any nation in the world after Saudi Arabia and Venezuela.
good god no. California looks conservative compared to Canada.
You're over generalizing. Look up how the western provinces voted in the last couple elections. Alberta and Saskatchewan make Texas look like centrists.
