They have 10 provinces and 3 territories. Certainly if we did annex Canada it wouldn't be a single state. It would be tough though, because Canada has roughly the equivalent population of California and New Mexico. Two of their provinces have roughly the populations of Milwaukee and Orlando. The 3 territories combined are about the population size of Cambridge Massachusetts (just over 118k people). Should they even be states - with 2 senators and a rep each? If you gave each province and territory statehood that would be 26 more senators and at least 35-50 more reps.
That would change our political landscape forever, and that's not even taking into account DC, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana islands, and the US Virgin Islands - should they want in on the action as well. That would be 12 more senators, and probably around 15 more reps.
Besides - think of all the money that would be spent shortening all of the football fields. kek

The territories would likely stay territories. The maritime provinces could be combined
